So sad. :sad: </p> <p>We watched The World According to Garp last night and I felt like it was really fitting with how it ends. But of course I was bawling. Need to watch one of his comedies tonight! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-robin-williams-movie/page/2#post-1813736 Wed, 13 Aug 2014 11:07:52 +0000 .twist. 1813736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@californiadreams: That's a great story. He also did that throughout Aladdin. They had a script for Robin, and he didn't follow it! He improvised a LOT of the Genie's character. :) Natural Genius. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-robin-williams-movie/page/2#post-1813724 Wed, 13 Aug 2014 11:04:26 +0000 californiadreams 1813724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Reviving this thread because I just remembered that Robin Williams was HYSTERICAL in the movie Nine Months!! loved that movie!</p> <p>And here is a fun fact about Good Will Hunting that I remember seeing on Oprah years ago. The scene in the movie where Robin Williams's character tells Matt Damon's character about how his wife use to fart so much it would wake herself up and Matt Damon's character started really laughing.....this was not in the script of the movie! The cameras were rolling, they were filming a scene and Robin just threw that in there and it was kept it in the movie! That was just Matt laughing at Robin's ridiculous story. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-robin-williams-movie/page/2#post-1812153 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 14:59:35 +0000 Shutterbug 1812153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: @dreamocracy: they were replaying an old Robin Williams interview on NPR today where they talk about comedians and depression... basically the 'sad clown'. :crying:<br /> <a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=6534689" rel="nofollow">http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=6534689</a></p> <p>ETA: to answer the question, lots of them! Aladdin, Jumanji, Hook, Mrs. Doubtfire, One Hour Photo (only saw that once - need to rewatch it!) and one that I don't think has been mentioned but I really liked him in was Night at the Museum. He already taped the 3rd one :(<br /> <a href="http://youtu.be/Hr1fFMp0MqU" rel="nofollow">http://youtu.be/Hr1fFMp0MqU</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-robin-williams-movie/page/2#post-1812149 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 14:58:25 +0000 ellewoods84 1812149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I loved the movie august rush! So good. But also mrs. doubtfire was a definite fav. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-robin-williams-movie/page/2#post-1812068 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 14:34:36 +0000 Cherrybee 1812068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I adored his films but will always love him in Mork and Mindy best. Rest in peace, Robin Williams - thank you for bringing so much joy to my life :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-robin-williams-movie/page/2#post-1812029 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 14:21:44 +0000 fairy 1812029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: I have heard that joke too :( So sad. Many comedians suffer from depression and use comedy to cope :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-robin-williams-movie/page/2#post-1812013 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 14:12:25 +0000 .twist. 1812013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dreamocracy: That is cool. :) </p> <p>So, I saw on FB someone post this joke with a photo of Robin Williams, although, if Robin Williams ever used it (which I don't think he did), I believe this originally quotes Alan Moore. Either way, I think it describes Williams very well, and it actually brought a tear to my eye. </p> <p>Heard joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. Great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor...I am Pagliacci.” </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-robin-williams-movie/page/2#post-1811997 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 14:04:44 +0000 fairy 1811997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aladdin.. love Genie. </p> <p>I also liked One Hour Photo, as creeeeepy as that was. I actually wrote a paper trying to diagnose Sy in that film for an Abnormal Psych class in college. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-robin-williams-movie/page/2#post-1811574 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 11:39:51 +0000 MsLipGloss 1811574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: One Hour Photo was so unexpected! I loved it too. But my favorite is GWH. He was so honest and raw (as a therapist) and yet still so kind and unselfish. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-robin-williams-movie/page/2#post-1811557 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 11:32:52 +0000 .twist. 1811557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: I liked it too.

A huge part of my acclimation to American culture. Celebrity deaths don't usually hit me. But this one def did.
