I agree, I didn't always love his humor, what I considered to be kind of stupid comedy, I don't mean that in any personal way, just the slapstick kind of over-acted type comedy. But, to me, he seemed like he was trying too hard sometimes, like he felt he always had to be up and silly rather than just be himself. I did love a few of his movies though. He did have an undercurrent of sadness to him. Hopefully he is at peace now.
