What is reflected in “Dead Poets Society”: Robin Williams’ eyes filled with sadness

What happened to Keating's disciples?

Since then, the alumni of ``Dead Poets Society'' have gone on to lead their own acting lives. Ethan Hawke appeared in " Reality Bites " (1994) as a representative of Generation ” series and “ From 6 years old to adulthood.” ” (14), and this year, he is once again in the awards race with “First Reformed,” in which he plays a priest who learns about the vicious relationship between the church and corporations.

Robert Sean Leonard, who played Neal, a key student in ``Dead Poets Society,'' was praised for his excellent performance worthy of an Academy Award. After ``The I Inside'' (2004), he left movies and moved into the TV industry. shift. He has built a career with roles such as Dr. James Wilson in ``Dr. HOUSE '' (2004-). Josh Charles is active in both major movies such as `` SWAT '' and TV series, and appears in 3 to 4 movies a year at a high pace. James Waterston, who plays Gerald, has mainly appeared on TV shows such as `` Flesh and Bone '' (2015~). As you may know, his father, Sam Waterston, and sister-in-law, Katherine Waterston, are also part of a family of actors. Also, Gail Hansen, who played Charlie Dalton (Nwanda), retired from acting after appearing in a few movies and TV shows. Currently, he is involved in film production with the title of creative consultant.

And in the face of sudden death

Thirty years made the boys grow up. Robin Williams, or "Robin Keating", who had a huge influence on them, was found dead in his home in California on August 11, 2014. The autopsy result was suicide. He passed away at the age of 63. Various considerations have been made as to the reason, but I will not examine them here. Following his untimely death, his close friend Billy Crystal issued a eulogy, calling him ``the brightest star in our 'comedy galaxy.'' Former President Barack Obama played Robin in his early masterpiece Mork & Mindy. ``He was an Alien who landed on Earth from another planet.He was someone who touched the heartstrings of our human souls.''

The extraordinary evaluation of Robin Williams, whose setting extends to outer space, is by no means an exaggeration when discussing the talent of Robin Williams. But more than that, I'm sad that I won't be able to see him try to convey something that cannot be put into words with those tear-filled blue eyes again at his favorite live performance. For now, the only way to fill the sense of loss shared by fans all over the world is to watch the films in which he appears, including ``Dead Poets Society''.
