I was on vacation in Boston when Robin passed. We went to Boston Public Garden and to the bench that his monolog was on, and there were flowers on the bench and hundreds of quotes written in chalk all along the sidewalk surrounding it! "You're move chief" along with plenty from Aladdin, Dead Poets, Good Morning Vietnam, etc... it was beautiful and heartbreaking.

Robin used to ride his bicycle all around San Francisco. He would show up to things going on in town and just ride around the periphery. With sunglasses and a helmet on, he was somewhat incognito and could just blend in. I saw him a few times. Most folks who recognized him in these settings would just let him be but he was always kind and gracious when approached.

I find that a lot of reactors are hard on Gerry. He really went out of his way to help Will. None of the healing Will was ultimately able to get would have been possible without Gerry going out on a limb just to help Will. And yes, he tried to give him help and direction in ways that Gerry responded to, but none of it was done with ego or maliciousness. As he said, he wasn't at home twisting his mustache. And he had no problem acknowledging that he was nothing compared to Will. Or even that Sean was always smarter than him. I've always seen Gerry and Sean as two types of good parents for Will, with two ways of providing well-intended support and direction. Those two styles of parenting will of course clash, and Jerry and Sean had a lot of baggage going back to their years in college, but I'm glad Gerry went to apologize to Sean for their fight, and that they made up.

@charlize1253 Жыл бұрын

Gerry represents a valid choice, not an antagonist. Both Will (and also Robin Williams) are each confronted with three choices: (1) stay in his comfort zone by doing the same thing every day; or (2) take a leap and try something totally new; or (3) strive to be the best by maximizing the talent you've been given. Will's friends represent the first choice; Skyler represents the second, and Gerry embodies the third choice. From Gerry's point of view, Will is wasting his generational talent (just as he thinks Robin Williams wasted his genius), and he's trying to instill the lifelong discipline and focus that it takes to be the greatest in your field; notice how he's not married and seems to have few friends and no life outside of his office. And he's not wrong, look at the lives of geniuses like Beethoven and Bobby Fisher; even Michael Jordan was widely considered a single-minded jerk; they were tortured people but they are remembered. But because he is so focused, too many people think he's cruel when he's just showing what it takes to be a legend.

@Mister_Samsonite Жыл бұрын

I agree! Gerry just had a problem letting go of whatever animosity there was between him and Sean. Gerry was focused on what Will could give to the world, while Sean was focused on what the world could give to Will.

@azuresentry815 Жыл бұрын

I'm not sure I would agree entirely that Gerry's help/direction was without ego, he certainly stands to be "the one" who discovered and brought will into the spotlight for this corner of the world (math community) but I absolutely agree he isn't the antagonist (Will is clearly his own antagonist, namely his past trauma more so than literally himself). I think Gerry is a very prideful and somewhat egotistical individual but he isn't evil or inherently a bad person. He just has a hard time seeing anything except the one driving thing, exploring his profession and wants to see Will add his substantial intellect to that field. He does have good intentions but I don't think his intentions are 100% pure either.

@KS-xk2so Жыл бұрын

Gerry's man problem, with both Sean and Will, is that he can only see and approach life from his own lens... he doesn't stop and think about how or why Sean/Will's lives and experiences may have caused them to react differently in situations than him... he only thinks about how he'd react, and tries to infer from there, which is a huge mistake, given how different they are.

Saudade = Robin Williams. 100% 😭 “The Portuguese word "saudade" doesn't have a direct translation into English as it represents a complex and unique emotion. It can be roughly understood as a nostalgic longing or a bittersweet yearning for someone, something, or somewhere that is absent or unreachable. It encompasses feelings of longing, melancholy, and a deep emotional connection to the past. "Saudade" is often associated with missing someone or something deeply, but it goes beyond mere sadness and carries a sense of profound affection and a desire to relive or recapture what has been lost.”

My all time favorite story of Robin Williams is the time he hospitalized a woman... with laughter. It wasn't intentional, but it did happen. Robin was a guest on "In the Actor's Studio" with host James Lipton in 2001. The show aired for a long time and episodes usually ran for an hour or so. Robin was on for 3-4 hours, so the televised version of his appearance was greatly abridged to say the least. As expected he turns it up way past 11 and is just absolutely hilarious. During the show, you can hear a woman laughing very hard and very frequently, so much so that even Robin commented on it. Well, by the end of 4 hours with Robin Williams doing what he did best, the poor woman ended up with a hernia from laughing so hard, and had to be taken to hospital. Robin brought so much love, laughter and joy to our world, while at the same time he suffered in silence... We are all so very lucky to have shared time with him on this planet, and we are all so greatly diminished by his loss. RIP Robin, we miss you.

I've seen so many people react to this movie and there seem to be two kinds of reactions to the "come to California with me" scene. There are the people who are confused by Will's actions and frustrated with him and there are the people who know exactly what he's doing and why. I'm in the latter camp and while it's a little frustrating to watch someone not 'get it' I think it speaks to something positive. It's probably a very good thing for a person to not relate to Will in that moment. It's an awful coping mechanism for past trauma that really messes up your life. While I often wish people had more empathy and understood those of us who act like this better, I have to admit that people are fortunate to be ignorant of it.

@holddowna Жыл бұрын

I know it may seem like I don’t understand Will, cause I’m rootin for him to see his potential, but my tears are more the expression of the sadness I have for him and understand at a visceral level what and why he’s doing it…There is so much to say, that I don’t say, or can’t always express. Because it’s a fine balance of letting the scene play and commenting. The trauma some characters face is too nuanced to try and explain… thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!

I guess it must come down to perspective. "If you love something you have to set it free" in which he doesn't think he's good enough, he's never felt unconditional love before and doesn't believe he is worthy of hers, or able to accept that he can be loved. Self destruct. Isn't that the main point of the film though, not how genial he is but how his past shouldn't dictate his future. Him being a genius is more a mcgufin than it is important to the story.🤷

@@d.w.strangeman4963 Great point, except that Will's genius matters in that it gives his character a choice that most people don't have: a chance at greatness.

And he's not wrong, look at the lives of geniuses like Beethoven and Bobby Fisher; even Michael Jordan was widely considered a single-minded jerk; they were tortured people but they are remembered.

I didn't speak, I just stood there, reading all the quotes, even some from Dead Poet's Society, and there it was..."Your Move Chief". I was never more grateful for Robin Williams than I was at that moment, and I grew up watching him in Mork & Mindy. A lot of celebrities have left us, but none hurt as much as losing him.

Too bad that I subscribed some time ago, now I won't win the lottery. As for Robin, he truly was a genius and I think that is a major factor in his final decision. In a moment of clarity, he knew he was only going to get worse and one of the defining characteristics of his life, his mind, was what was being attacked. My father was a genius, when it came to basic math and construction. You could call out four 4 digit numbers and he could add them faster in gis head than you could on a calculator. He quit school in like the 6th grade to go to work full time, to help out him and his 10 brothers and sisters. So he would have trouble doing calculus but only because he lacked that education. He could also look at a blueprint of a building and quickly figure out how much of each material(lumber, metal, plumbing, wiring, etc) was needed to build it. It was painful seeing him go through Alzheimer's in his final years. I know he hated it, in his moments of clarity.

I grew up watching Mork & Mindy. I also saw his movies and his interviews on late night talk shows. When my local news announced his passing I couldn't believe it. I thought he would be around forever. Then the news anchor said many began posting to their social media accounts a picture of themselves standing on desks with the caption "Oh captain my captai!" That was it. Reality set in. I felt like I lost a close family member. I wasn't ready for him to go. I feel like much of my childhood was anchored around him. With his loss that childhood also was lost. The world seems to slowly change into some place I no longer recognize with each passing of people like him.

Robin Williams was one of the best dramatic actors ever. You mentioned Dead Poets Society, but don't forget WORLD ACCORDING TO GARP, with Williams in his first dramatic role. It was this role that cast the mold for his wise, perceptive and funny approach to a character. His best role in my book.

Fun Fact: Robin Williams forgot to thank his mom in his acceptance speech. He did an interview on it and talked about how his mom gave him ish about it all the time. Edit: The last line of the movie was improved. Matt Damon loves talking about filming that scene and how he jumped around with the director when he heard the line because it was so perfect.

We need more movies like this right now, I would be happy to drop 70% of the special effect movies to see more studio's take a chance on original stories like this.

It wasn't an alpha-dog confrontation in Sean's office, it was Will trying to preemptively get Sean to quit on him by pushing his buttons as he did with the previous (5) therapists. It's a protective/defensive mechanism.

Now you know why Minnie Driver got the part. She absolutely killed it. Why Sean was able to keep saying, "It's not your fault", and not get blasted upside the head was because he called him SON and meant it. Will never had a father who sincerely loved him. Sean showed that he did.
