Probably one of the most talented men ever
to walk the face of the earth, Robin Williams is undoubtedly
respected by everyone associated with the acting business.
Delivering stellar performances in a wide assortment of
movies proves the depth of his talent. Movies such as "Good
Morning Vietnam" (1987), "The Fisher King"
(1991), "Aladdin" (1992), "Moscow on the
Hudson" (1989), and "The Awakening" (1990),
all proved Williams to be uncannily witty and spontaneously
hilarious.
He seems to be invincible, the Hollywood
Superman if you will, delivering untouchable performances
left and right. Yet his hard work seemed in vain, that is
up until the 1998 flick, "Good Will Hunting",
where Williams delivered a touching performance as the psychiatrist/mentor
of a young man, troubled by his ingenious and dark past.
Receiving his Oscar for Best Supporting Male Actor didn't
go to his head by any means, however. Instead, Williams
only drove harder to make us melt, and cry out of both laughter
and tragedy in flawless performances such as "What
Dreams May Come" (1998), and "Patch Adams"
(1999). (CD)
