Dead Poets Society:

In my opinion, Todd, was the one who transformed the most through the film. At first he didn't want to talk, read, or even preform a poem. Todd was very quiet and didn't want to speak out. He felt that he wasn't good enough to do poetry. He felt that his poetry was bad and unworthy to be read out loud. Mr. Keating made Todd feel like he mattered. He made him see his poetry was wonderful and amazing. He made Todd see he could do anything he wanted. 
Charlie I believe doesn't change throughout the film. In the beginning he was daring and he never changed. He was so busy trying not to conform and he never really changed. 
Mr. Keating changed a little in my eyes. He was able to see life differently. He didn't necessarily change he way of teaching or his way of guiding the students to not conform he just simply saw life in a different manner because of those boys. 
  • Todd Anderson: he was scared and that his poetry was not worthy of being read. He believed that it wasn't good enough. He eventually did overcome his fear thanks to Mr.Keating. 
  • Neil Perry: was scared of standing up to his dad. He was scared of telling him what he actually wanted. He never really overcame his fear because he killed himself instead of standing up to his father.
  • Knox Overstreet: He was scared of standing up and telling the love of his life how he felt about her. He did overcome his fear because he finally told her how he felt and made a deal with her. It all came out pretty good and they did end up together.
  • Charlie Dalton: was scared of conforming. He wanted to stand out and not be like everybody else. He in a way achieved his goal of not conforming because he tried so hard to always be different.
