RIP: Robin Williams
Aug. 11th, 2014 08:35 pmWhat a brilliant mind, what a tragic loss. His death is an apparent suicide, though it'll take some time before the official ruling. Apparently his depression came back of late and hit him hard.
I remember him on Happy Days, before Mork & Mindy spun off on its own. Then there was the Live at the Met performance. I have two movies of his, I'm kind of ashamed that I don't have more. One is his appearance at The Actor's Studio, the title of the other eludes me for the moment, it was the one where he became President of the United States after someone tried to rig the election for their candidate.
I remember an appearance he did on Letterman when Moscow on the Hudson opened. Letterman made a comment that Williams had to learn Russian for the movie and started egging Williams on to get him to speak in Russian, finally Robin started and wouldn't stop. Dave just smiled, nodded his head, then looked square at the camera and shrugged, like 'Stupid me, now we can't shut him up!'
