I would like to start a thread honoring Robin Williams, a comedian/actor that I have admired for a couple of decades. Such great television, such great improve, amazing stand-up/talk show routines and movies that make you laugh and cry.
It was so sad to hear of his death by suicide. It shocked me, and then it didn't in a way. I wondered why he took a step back and did that TV show which I found forced humour and frankly I did not think he looked so good. You wonder what caused his depression when you think of the effect he had on most that saw his movies, listened to his monologues. If there was ever a testament to the evils to drugs and alcohol and their addiction, he would be a poster boy in my opinion.
Here is an interview in a calm moment in an ABC NEWS (Australia) interview. I don't know who the interviewer was but I thought he conducted the process very well. Williams is under control most of the time but occasionally his funny side leaks out....enjoy
Please share clips of his humour by this man so we can all enjoy them .
