Director Statement

Daniel J. Munoz was heavily inspired by movies like Taxi Driver, Drive, Fight Club, Fractured, and recently Joker when writing Dead Poet. There’s no doubt that movies like these spread controversy over specific topics like mental health, drug abuse, and firearms which end up in news, media, and headlines. If done right its possible to remove the glamour and glorification of these topics and instead prompt them as situations and ideas that need advocacy.
