10. Must-watch Robin Williams Movies (for the ‘mature’ children)
Some of his best films are for the young adults, the slightly more mature minds, and for the grown-ups with doors open for new moments. Films like Good Morning, Vietnam (1987), Dead Poets Society (1989), The Fisher King (1991) or Good Will Hunting (1997) have provided, humour, sensitivity, and much more together, and have often had an undertone of melancholy. He has broken conventions as the illegitimate son of a feminist mother in The World According to Garp (1982) and the owner of a gay bar with a drag queen domestic partner in Birdcage (1996), exciting many adverse reactions from people who are now hindering his funeral.
He has worked in several other films where he gave little chance to complain about, and provided us words of wisdom, moments of joy and feelings that became experiences. The man with a child-like shine in his starry eyes and an evergreen, contagious smile had fallen prey to addiction, alcoholism and depression, and was battling early stages of Parkinson’s disease. It is more of a shock to learn that this ever enchanting source or laughter and smile committed suicide to escape his depression. Suicide cannot be the answer to the fears, depressions, or darkness, but, in the face of all these, one does not realize it. Williams’ death should be taken as a lesson to know that depression is something that does not discriminate. Those battling with depression and suicidal thoughts need the support, love and company of friends and family, and not their sympathy, judgment or advice. Let us take his death as Williams’ last lesson to us, and let the genie be free of all conjectures or vile opinions.
