Rest in Peace, old friend.
Very shocking and sad to hear. I want to mention some of his earlier movies; I think Popeye and The World According to Garp were both pretty great. He was also interesting as a lonely man turned creepy stalker in the (relatively) more recent One Hour Photo.
Heartbreaking news. Too young. I had one of the funniest evenings of my life in his company after a screening of one of his films in London a few years ago. He was a manic comic genius...and a nice guy.
As someone who suffers from many of the same demons, this news hit me hard. If you aren't familiar with Marc Maron's WTF podcast, he reposted his interview with Robin Williams, which is one of the most honest and personal interviews with him you could wish to hear...and the updated, current intro might leave a lump in your throat. http://www.wtfpod.com/podcast/episod...robin_williams
Robin Williams (R.I.P.) When I heard this news the other day I was totally shocked I remember him going all the way back to making an appearance on Happy Days as Mork From Ork which lead to him getting his own series with Pam Dawber Mork and Mindy.
What a shock.
The death of these celebs who we grow up with from Mork & Mindy right through to rewatch of both "The Fisher King" (on of my fave movies) and "Insomnia" (see if if you haven't) in the last few months, seem to be more shocking than those from outside one's time.
RIP.
Gutted & sad.
I actually exchanged pleasantries for a minute or 2 with him earlier this year on a cold wet Friday evening outside the British Museum when filming Night at the Museum 3. He looked quiet frail and a bit sad beneath the smile he gave me, when speaking about the rainy London weather. He was a true gentleman.
RIP Robin. Sadly missed.
My sister committed suicide, I couldn't and haven't understood her reasons, hope it brought the sought after relief. It is a sad loss for us, RIP Mr. Williams thanks for the laughter.
Such a loss. RIP
Shocked...R.IP
