5 Dark Academia Movies That I Don't Find Too Many Other People Posting Very Frequently About
Note my definition of Dark Academia: dark because somebody dies (at a stretch, the darkness can be oppression or abuse from which no one necessarily dies but it still gets pretty dark—or if someone attempts suicide or murder then I count it as dark); academia because they go to uniform school or prepster university (the academia part can be an intense study, discussion, or research of a subject even though they are not at a campus.)
1. The Moth Diaries 2011
The book was better, more detailed, but the movie is still pretty good. The campus is peak neoclassical splendor, the uniforms are on-point aesthetic, and the darkness is gruesomely bloody and also it's on fire. The book is set during the school year of 1970 to 1971, but the movie is set in 2010 thereabouts.
2. "O" 2001
A modern retelling of Othello by William Shakespeare set at a prestigious boarding school. Adapting classical literature in a high school was trendy at the time, trying to capture the magic of Clueless 1995, and in my opinion "O" was the most glammed-up production with the most dark academia atmosphere out of all of them.
3. Educating Rita 1983
A working-class British young woman takes a social enrichment outreach education opportunity to study literature, in hopes that a study in the humanities will give her a better sense of self. Her tutor is a "failed" poet who struggles with substance addiction. Unbeknownst to them, both their lives are at the crux of change. In their consistently non-romantic conversations together, they unpack class discrimination in academia and society, as well as argue about the meaningfulness versus empty pretensions of studying humanities.
Nobody dies, well all right somebody almost dies for pretentious academic reasons...but the conversations leave a lot between the lines.
4. Private Romeo 2011
A modern retelling of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare set at an all-boys military school. Sure, it's not the Oxbridge-Camford or "Hollywood New England" collegiate aesthetic...but it is very gay, a feature that I hope lends the movie some compensatory merit in this context. Juliet's a boy. Romeo is still a boy. Nurse is a boy. Juliet's mom is a man. Paris is an abstract concept. They are studying Romeo and Juliet at the military school English class at the same time that they are living and speaking the lines in Romeo and Juliet, so it gets surreal and I recommend getting more into the emotion of it than get caught up in what the lines they're saying are supposed to mean.
This should be chaotic academia or frenzy academia, but there's homophobic hazing and bullying so I think that's pretty dark.
5. Bare: a Pop Opera ???? There was supposed to be a movie but I deduce that it's stalled in development purgatory. I have not liked a movie adaptation of a stage musical since Chicago 2002, so I guess I don't really like movie adaptations of stage musicals—but I definitely want my current hyperfixation to be more accessible than a Spotify album oh hey while waiting for this adaptation to happen you can listen to the Spotify album. It's an operetta, so it's sung-through and you won't miss out on any story dialogue unlike with other musicals. Here's my argument for B:APO being Dark Academia.
DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE #5 SPOT ON MY LIST DOES NOT EXIST...WHAT DARK ACADEMIA MOVIES DO YOU THINK SHOULD BE IN THIS SPOT IN THE MEANTIME?
I CAPSLOCK IN ANGUISH THAT THE B:APO MOVIE DOES NOT EXIST YET AND PROBABLY NEVER WILL.
YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS ARE CONSOLATION.
Honorable Mentions:
The History Boys 2006 had one subplot I was bothered by at first and then grew to despise which is really too bad because this movie had racial diversity, directly addressed misogyny in academia, and had canon gays in a love triangle — but it is dark and it doesn't really seem to know that it's dark.
The Children's Hour 1961 "dark academia is mlm while cottagecore is wlw" WRONG watching this movie to consider evidence of dark academia wlw is part of your yuri duty! remember our history!
Never Let Me Go 2010 I can't describe objectively because I read the book at a time in my life that I was having a time at that time. The movie is a faithful adaptation. I re-read it recently and I think it's more Dark Academia than I gave it credit for, but if you're not into Contemplative Dystopia then I completely understand it not being your thing.
Like Minds 2006 — Huh, so 2006 was a busy year for this genre that did not yet exist at the time. Witness the folie à deux of 21st century teenaged Templar Knight kinnies who are also homoerotic serial killers. (Waves to the people that introduced me to this movie, who—contrary to the header of this post—actually do post about it.)
Rope 1948 does have some activity that I've caught recently enough, but I thought maybe it wouldn't be considered Dark Academia right away because it doesn't take place at a school. It takes place at a dinner party where ex-schoolfriends talk to their philosophy professor who they remain well-acquainted with after graduation, an interrogation of putting this professor's morally heinous philosophy into practice. Also there is a corpse at this dinner party. There's your academics and your darkness, so there's your dark academia.

Educating Rita (1983). An alcoholic professor has been hired by a working-class girl for higher education.
Julie Walters is magical as a working class hairdresser who decides to study literature, and Michael Caine is characteristically watchable as her alcoholic professor, but I don't know! There was something missing for me from this offbeat little drama, and I feel like it never quite delivered on what it wanted to. 6.5/10.

Happy Birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈 🎁 🎊  To 1 Of Britain's Most Distinguished & Dedicated Actors Of The Golden Age Of Acting Of Our Times.
He is an English actor. Known for his distinctive Cockney accent, he has appeared in more than 160 films in a career spanning seven decades and is considered a British film icon. He has received various awards including two Academy Awards, a BAFTA, three Golden Globe Awards, and a Screen Actors Guild Award. As of 2017, the films in which He has appeared have grossed over $7.8 billion worldwide. He is one of only five male actors to be nominated for an Academy Award for acting in five different decades. In 2000, he received a BAFTA Fellowship and was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II for his contribution to cinema.
Born On March 14th, 1933 Maurice Joseph Micklewhite on 14 March 1933 at St Olave's Hospital in Rotherhithe, London, England. His English mother, Ellen Frances Marie (née Burchell; 1900–1989), was a cook and charwoman, while his father, also named Maurice Joseph Micklewhite (1899–1956), was a fish market porter of Romani, English and Irish heritage. He was brought up in his mother's Protestant faith.
He had an elder maternal half-brother named David William Burchell, and a younger full brother, Stanley Micklewhite. He grew up in Southwark, London, and during the Second World War was evacuated 100 miles (160 km) north to North Runcton near King's Lynn in Norfolk, where he made his acting debut at the village school and had a pet carthorse called Lottie. After the war, his father was demobilised, and the family were rehoused by the council in Marshall Gardens at the Elephant and Castle in a prefabricated house made in Canada, for much of London's housing stock had been destroyed during the Blitz in 1940–1941:
At the age of 10, He acted in a school play as the father of the ugly sisters in Cinderella. His fly was undone and he got a laugh, and he took on acting based on the laugh. In 1944, He passed his eleven-plus examination, winning a scholarship to Hackney Downs School (formerly The Grocers' Company's School). After a year there he moved to Wilson's Grammar School in Camberwell (now Wilson's School in Wallington, London), which he left at 16 after gaining a School Certificate in six subjects. He then worked briefly as a filing clerk and messenger for a film company in Victoria Street and film producer Jay Lewis in Wardour Street.
Often playing a Cockney, He made his breakthrough in the 1960s with starring roles in British films such as Zulu (1964), The Ipcress File (1965), The Italian Job, and Battle of Britain (both 1969).
During this time he established a distinctive visual style wearing thick horn-rimmed glasses combined with sharp suits and a laconic vocal delivery; he was recognized as a style icon of the 1960s. He solidified his stardom with roles in Get Carter (1971), The Last Valley (1971), The Man Who Would Be King (1975), The Eagle Has Landed (1976), and A Bridge Too Far (1977).
He received two Academy Awards for Best Supporting Actor for his roles as Elliot in Woody Allen's comedy Hannah and Her Sisters (1986), and as Dr. Wilbur Larch in Lasse Hallström's drama The Cider House Rules (1999). His other Oscar-nominated films include Alfie (1966), Sleuth (1972), Educating Rita (1983), and The Quiet American (2002). Other notable performances include in the films California Suite (1978), Dressed to Kill (1980), Mona Lisa (1986), Little Voice (1998), Quills (2000), Children of Men (2006), and Youth (2015).
He is also known for his performance as Ebenezer Scrooge in The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992), and for his comedic roles in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (1988), Miss Congeniality (2000), Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002), and Secondhand Lions (2003).
He portrayed Alfred Pennyworth in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Trilogy (2005–2012). He appeared in Nolan's films The Prestige (2006), Inception (2010), Interstellar (2014) and Tenet (2020). He also appeared in the actions films Now You See Me (2013), and Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014).
For More Then 7 Seven Decades He Has Graced The Silver Screen & Theater Plays Time & Time & Time Again & To This Very Day.
He Is Undoubtedly The Best British Actor To Day Other Then Noticeable Legendaey British Actors such as Sir Patrick Stewart & Sir John Hurt
Please Wish This Most Outstanding & Distinguished Actor Of The UK 🇬🇧 A Happy Birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈 🎁 🎊

Classic Film Review: Essential cinema for the college bound kid in your house -- "Educating Rita (1983)"
Classic Film Review: Essential cinema for the college bound kid in your house — “Educating Rita (1983)”
Taste is the most subjective thing in film criticism. It’s a deeply personal thing, built on background and core beliefs that direct how a given person responds to a given moviegoing experience. I think about “Educating Rita” several times a year, pretty much every year since this 1983 jewel came out. I think of it whenever someone mentions another grand Michael Caine performance, as friends…

I know it's meant to be glib but when I read about how the whole bloody genre and all its deaths might have been prevented if only Oliver Quick got Felix Catton to have sex with him (what with all the hints that Felix might've been into that actually), I think of that conversation in the stageplay Educating Rita:
Dr. Bryant: The sort of thing you read in a paper that’s reported as being tragic, “Man killed by a falling tree," That’s not a tragedy.
Rita: It is for the poor sod under the tree.
Dr. Bryant: Yes, it’s tragic, absolutely tragic. But it’s not a tragedy in the way that Macbeth is a tragedy. In dramatic terms, tragedy is something that is absolutely inevitable, preordained almost. Now, look, even without ever having even heard the story of Macbeth you wanted to shout out, to warn him and prevent him going on, didn’t you? But you wouldn’t have been able to stop him, would you?
Rita: No.
Dr. Bryant: (Socratically) And why is that?
Rita: ’Cause they would have thrown me out of the theatre.
Dr. Bryant: No no no no, what I mean is that your warning would have been ignored. He’s warned in the play. Constantly warned. But he can’t go back. He still treads the path to doom. But, you see, the poor old fellow under the tree hasn’t arrived there by following inevitable steps, has he? There’s no particular flaw in his character that has dictated his end. If he’d been warned of the consequences of standing beneath that particular tree, he wouldn’t have done it.
Rita: So... Macbeth brings it on himself?
Dr. Bryant: Yes! You see, he goes blindly on and on and with every step he’s spinning one more piece of thread which will eventually make up the network of his own tragedy.
It's 2006 or however many years later and internalized homophobia probably doesn't help, but I take it that Oliver's stubbornly against sentimentality. He had a want and a plan, and that's why he hates Felix for introducing something out of Oliver's conscious control. I imagine him drifting into daydreams about getting to know Felix better and having that vulnerability requited. Those become nightmares because trusting another person enough to be vulnerable and honest is too chaotic because then something is left up to the other person. If Oliver was determined to set aside those daydreams because he won't be Felix's summer fling, then that's his tragedy. He wouldn't choose any other way to be, and look at him go dancing nuddy in a castle that's all his own. He can keep telling himself that he made the right decision, and one summer of romantic fireworks can be sacrificed for all this luxury.
But in my headcanon, Felix will haunt him (not literally) and the grand estate and all the wealth Elspeth left to him won't be enough of a consolation.
