Honestly wasn’t sure about Weir. I have very mixed feelings about Dead Poet’s Society. There are very good things about it — Williams gives a fine performance and its clearly become a modern classic. That said, I think the decision to nominate it and Weir for Best Director and NOT Do the Right Thing and Spike Lee is arguably one of the Oscars biggest blunders. There are STILL people angry thirty years on that Dead Poets won Best Screenplay and Lee lost and I think its a justifiable anger. Your thoughts?
