Re: RIP Robin Williams

A Sad day for sure.  Mr. Williams endured substance abuse, Bi-polar disorder with the associated bouts of depression, and more recently by-pass surgery.

Sorry to hear you're gone....... Nanu-Nanu.

Re: RIP Robin Williams

I hate comedy films but strangely I always enjoyed Robin Williams films, Mrs Doubtfire was a classic.

Sadly, it appears that he lost his battle with his inner demons, a tragic loss indeed.

Re: RIP Robin Williams

I recall an interview with Barbara Walters years ago, who said that the only person she was ever afraid to interview was Robin Williams. She never knew what he was going to do, and trembled in fear just waiting for something unexpected. Guess I'd have to say my favorite film of his was "Bicentennial Man".

Re: RIP Robin Williams

A terrible loss of such a great talent. One of the true comics of his generation. Every interview I ever saw with Robin, he would just run off in his own direction. Often leaving the interviewer to ask  "Who's doing the interview". RIP.

Re: RIP Robin Williams

I enjoyed all Robin Williams films he was a great actor and comic genius.
I remembered laughing till I cried listening to his comic stand up routine.
So sad that such a talent was blighted with depression.
RIP Robin and thanks for the laughs.

Re: RIP Robin Williams

Williams always made me laugh, but I always thought he was at his best in more dramatic roles.  "One Hour Photo" was absolutely brilliant, and he managed to be both entirely sympathetic and totally creepy at the same time.   I also liked "Insomnia" even though it wasn't as good as the Norwegian original, he was still really good in it.

Someday we'll win this thing...
