Robin Williams Marathon

[OldDrummer]

Thinking a lot about Robin Williams recently. Spent the day watching four seminal films:

- Awakenings
- Good Will Hunting
- Dead Poets Society
- Fisher King

What an amazing actor. You can really see the pain in his eyes. The DPS film deals with suicide.

Fisher King was one of my favourites. It deals with the banality of American Radio fame and always reminded me of the cult of Howard Stern. If you enjoy that film, I'd also recommend 'Talk Radio' starring Eric Bogosian.

Just some films that I'd recommend you seeing before ctb'ing.

Much love.

I absolutely love Dead Poets Society. My dad showed it to me and my siblings when we were young and while I couldn't fully grasp the meaning and context of what was going on in that film I was still captivated by Robin's Character Mr. Keating and how he taught his class. The acting and story telling overall in that film is so good.

Also Mrs. Doubtfire, can't forget that one. Good Morning Vietnam sounds good, though I haven't watched that one yet
