Amen to Robin Williams in comedies. He is rarely very funny, because I just don't think movies can capture his "style". However, he is outstanding in drama (loved him in the medical drama, "Awakenings").
Doing mine later but...
Dune-that was blasphemy to walk out on
What is this blog becoming?
I've never commented before...but About Last Night is one of my all time favorites...even have the soundtrack. Not sure why that hit a note with me, but I smiled when I read it!
Man, you sure are in touch with your feelings and memories about what made you cry and when..... Are you sure you aren't Tom Hanks?.... you look like him.
The whole thing is gay, Barry! I got thru the 3rd question with a WTF! Who Cares!
Sorry.
I personally think Robin Williams has been very good in a number of films including, Good Morning Vietnam, Mrs Doubtfire, and Good Will Hunting, and Dead Poet's Society, all of which showed flashes of his comedic genius, but which were, by and large, more dramatic than comedic roles.
Phantom of the Opera is the best movie musical and was great on Broadway as well...Kudos for admitting to liking it!
I remember watching Bonnie and Clyde in downtown Bridgeport.First boobs I ever layed eyes on were Faye Dunaway's.
