What does it mean to truly live your life? Why do so many people postpone the things that matter most—adventure, creativity, love, purpose, self-expression—until some future moment when the timing feels right? And what happens if that moment never comes? In this Watch & Talk session, we'll explore these questions through scenes from Dead Poets Society, one of the most beloved and culturally influential films ever made. Generations of viewers across cultures have been inspired by its message, and for many people, this film is the reason the phrase "carpe diem" entered their vocabulary in the first place.

Together, we'll watch key scenes and use them as a starting point for a deeper discussion about fear, conformity, regret, courage, and what it means to seize the day. Is living fully about taking risks? Following your passion? Rejecting expectations? Or is the answer more complicated than that? Along the way, we'll explore why this film continues to resonate decades after its release and why its themes remain so relevant today. Whether you've seen the film many times or never at all, this session offers a chance to engage with a true modern classic while reflecting on one of life's biggest questions: are we living the lives we want, or merely preparing to live them someday?

Let's sit back with good friends in comfy chairs and watch scenes from a beautifully human and classic film that changed the way people talk and look at life. Let's find out why it's cemented into popular culture and one of the most quoted and drawn-upon movies, even by people who haven't seen it. And, of course, let's have a deep discussion about our mutual journey!
