What is your favorite Robin Williams' movie?
 
Robin Williams - Rotten Tomatoes

My younger brother's 2nd wive's 1st son is in the movie August Rush which features Robin Williams as a NYC con man who takes advantage of street kids. August Rush - Rotten Tomatoes

He only has a small part though. I mean my younger brother's son.

It is a good movie if you like classical music.

My favorite Robin Williams' movie is The Dead Poet's Society.

Good Morning, Vietnam

It would be easier to say which one I didn't like - uh, none.

Like the best, either Patch Adams or Awakenings

Agree. But my golf buddies talk about his skit "The Invention of Golf". I saw the clean version on Johnny Carson.

They are all good. Mrs. Doubtfire.

RV always makes me laugh.

Love them all, but favorite is The Birdcage. He and Nathan Lane together is priceless!

“The World According to Garp” is my favorite although I can’t say I’ve seen all of his movies so I’m somewhat limited. Did see many though. I had a mixed opinion of his talents. Better actor than a stand up comedian IMO. Sad how he cashed out.

WingedFoot78 07-23-2022 05:28 AM

Amen to RV.

I agree with all the movies listed and would like to add Good Will Hunting and the Awakenings.
I believe he was underrated as an actor because many saw him as a comedian.

Good Will Hunting

"The World According to Garp." As someone whose house was partially destroyed by a tornado, I often quote the movie in saying my house has been "pre-disastered," just like Garp's house that was hit by a small aircraft.

Best Movie
 
Patch Adams ….. by far

There are so many it’s hard to choose. A search on IMDB popped up 134 movies. From 1977, I Can’t do it without Glasses to the second Night of the Museum. I always liked “Moscow on the Hudson”. Also “Hook” is one of our guilty pleasure movies when we just need o good belly laugh.

That it was and very ironic considering its subject. He goes to "Hell" to rescue his wife who had committed suicide.

Oh so many favorites of Robin Williams to name. He was a genius!

I loved all of Robin Williams movies and found him to be an outstanding, multi-talented actor. One movie that really stood out, in my opinion, was "What Dreams May Come" although "The Dead Poets Society" was also outstanding.

He was a comic genius, and a humble and kind person.
Check the link below to see his friendship with Koko the gorilla

Robin Williams made Koko the gorilla laugh for the first time in 6 months after the death of her childhood playmate - G2a -ltc
