This is another classic favorite o'mine. This movie, like "Stargate" for Courtney, combines several of my interests/affections/aspirations: teaching, poetry, boarding schools, the 1950s, and when I was a teenager, cute boys (Knox Overstreet!) in suitcoats.
Oh Captain, my Captain!
On rewatching, I find the suicide a tad bit improbable (more of an impetuous teen gesture than a realistic event for that character), but the movie still touches my heart!
Carpe Diem, indeed.

Does Knox Overstreet remind you of anyone . . . ? Because he reminds ME of someone totally cute!
Carpe dentum! Seize the teeth!
Allen "Knox Overstreet" Renfroe truly rocks!

I do like this movie, except the suicide of course, but luckily Chris warns me of such events and I don't actually have to see it. He has definitely gotten me to watch a whole lot more movies and read more books then I ever would have and I have really enjoyed them.
For the record, I did not write seize the teeth. J did (: m
