2 Filem Satu Cerita

Kali ini saya nak bercerita tentang sebuah filem yang pernah saya tonton di TV pada masa sekolah menengah dahulu. Filem ini ternyata memberi kesan kepada saya kerana sampai sekarang saya masih lagi teringat akan filem ini walaupun tidak 100% ingat keseluruhan adegannya.

Dead Poets Society

Dead Poets Society is an 1989 Academy Award-winning film directed by Peter Weir. Set in 1959 at a conservative and autocratic boys prep school, it tells the story of an English professor who inspires his students to change their lives of conformity through his teaching of poetry and literature.

The story is set at the fictional Welton Academy in Vermont and was filmed at St. Andrew's School in Middletown, Delaware. The script was written based on the author's life at Montgomery Bell Academy, an all boys preparatory school in Nashville, Tennessee. A novelization by Nancy H. Kleinbaum (ISBN 0553282980) based on the movie's script has also been published.

Selain dari pelakon utama cerita ini yang menjadi pelakon kegemaran saya (Robin Williams), faktor lain yang membuatkan saya teringat akan cerita ini ialah setelah saya menonton cerita hindustan yang bertajuk Mohabbatein. Jalan ceritanya seakan-akan selari temanya namun cerita hindi ini telah diolah dengan menggunakan rempah-ratus intipati filem-filem jenama Hollywood.

Mohabbatein

Dipetik dari Wikipedia :

Gurukul is run by a stern headmaster named Narayan Shankar, played by Amitabh Bachchan. The headmaster has instituted a strict anti-romance policy. Students are there to learn, he says, not to party and flirt. Students who become romantically involved will be expelled.

The three of them all have their hearts set on different girls. Sameer (Jugal Hansraj) works in a cafe and is in love with his long time friend Sanjana (Kim Sharma). Unfortunately for Sameer, she has a boyfriend. Vikram (Uday Chopra) accidentally bumps into Ishika (Shamita Shetty) when he catches her stealing apples from the Gurukul gardens, and falls in love at first sight. Karan (Jimmy Shergill) sees Kiran (Preeti Jhangiani) on a hill when he is waiting for a train. Kiran is married to an Army Officer who never returned from war, yet she holds hope that he is alive. The three of them, encouraged by Raj Aryan (Shahrukh Khan), their music teacher, follow their hearts and break the rules of the school.

Hebat sungguh Bollywood mengolah cerita ini seolah-olah cerita ini adalah datangnya dari idea mereka. Oh! Captain, My Captain.
