A New Beginning for Some, "The Dead Poets Society"

In Peter Weirs 1989 film "Dead Poets Society" the younger boys parents excitement for their children to be attending such a noble school is offset by the younger boys reluctance  for their parents to leave illustrating the worried fear instilled within the younger boys. As three young boys sit on a pew in the church like room filled with all other attentive people during the opening ceremony one boys eyes begin to apathetically wander demonstrating his desire to be anywhere but Welton listening to the headmaster speak. When the ceremony is over the conjugation of people stride outside into the gleaming sun-shining world, almost the opposite of the semi-dark room they were previously sitting in, outside the boys begin to say their goodbyes to their parents. The strong, heart-felt  hugs shared between the parents and their children and tears that begin to roll out of the small boys eyes elude to the angst the boys are holding within themselves. The older boys contrasting with the actions that the younger boys take by seeming almost more excited to be back to Welton. This displays that Welton is a superb school and that the younger boys are just stepping into a new life, afraid of the endless possibilities.
