An Evening with Robin Williams

8/12/2014

This was his special that I watched the most growing up.  Robin Williams was one of my childhood heroes, and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who feels that way.  The dude is an icon, an inspiration to a generation of comedians, and one of the best stand ups who ever lived, with a unique energy that's nothing short of awe inspiring.  At the same time, he could even turn in some of the most chilling and memorable dramatic performances put on film as well, from One Hour Photo to Insomnia to his Academy Award Winning role in Good Will Hunting, not to mention the darkly comedic, underrated bit of madness that is Death to Smoochy.  Then there's what I feel is his best, and most haunting and layered performance, which is his role as Parry in The Fisher King.  No matter what mood, this is someone who could always make me smile, and what better way to remember this comedy great than An Evening with Robin Williams.  Elmer Fudd singing "Fire" is something my family and I have quoted for well over 20 years.
