  • Dead Poets Society: Final Script
    Dead Poets Society: Final Script original screenplay by Tom Schulman, film directed by Peter Weir This is the final script of the theatrical release of Dead Poets Society. It was obtained from Simply Scripts and initially contained only the dialog from the film. (No descriptions, actions, locations, anything...) I went through the script and added in descriptive text. As I have not had a chance to double check everything, I am sure there are a few errors, typos, or bits of incorrect dialog still. I'll try to verify it all shortly. INT. WELTON ACADEMY HALLWAY - DAY A young boy, dressed in a school uniform and cap, fidgets as his mother adjusts his tie. MOTHER Now remember, keep your shoulders back. A student opens up a case and removes a set of bagpipes. The young boy and his brother line up for a photograph PHOTOGRAPHER Okay, put your arm around your brother. That's it. And breathe in. The young boy blinks as the flash goes off. PHOTOGRAPHR Okay, one more. An old man lights a single candle. A teacher goes over the old man's duties. TEACHER Now just to review, you're going to follow along the procession until you get to the headmaster. At that point he will indicate to you to light the candles of the boys.
