The scene in the park…Robins monologue…one of the best scenes in cinema history. Hands down. I watch Robin win his Oscar every once in a while, just to see the pure joy and love coming from him. Rest in sweet peace, Robin. ❤️ We will love and miss you forever.
It started with Mork and Mindy....lol Who could've guessed..?
I loved it as a kid...!
Makes me cry every time.
The camera bouncing in that scene was because even the camera man was laughing that hard at that scene
I taught GED in a rather tough prison for several years. I showed this movie to my classes of "tough" harden criminals. Men who refused to show any signs of weakness. Wthout exception when Will says, "I don't love you.". One or more of these "tough" men who don't need anyone would say out loud, "Oh no why would he say that? He just f#"@ up!"
Even they knew Will fucked up.

Minnie Driver is so underrated. I don't love you scene is so powerful because of her. She really makes you feel what its like to have your heart just ripped in half. Great reaction guys, thank you.
She's all kinds of Nifty. 😍
Google why she was so effective in that scene. It's heartbreaking.
I have been on both sides of a situation like that scene. The first time I watched this movie all I could do was yell at Will to stop being such an idiot. Those of us with similar trauma as Will immediately see what he's doing and just hold out hope that he won't.
Matt Damon and Ben Affleck won an academy award for writing the script. Incredible when you think about it. Such young people (at the time) were able to write such a mature and wise script about life.
From what I've seen, they didn't (write it). They had a very loose concept and had the family connections to get old pros to work it for them while they kept top billing. But they deserve mad credit as producers and actors.
@@dudermcdudeface3674 Yeah, I've always been suspicious about it. To me the fact that after 25+ years neither of them ever wrote anything else is "something". I love this movie though.
Robin Williams also won Best Supporting Actor
@@TylerWx They both have written multiple movies/tv series and written Screenplays. Ben Affleck - Wrote the screenplay for The Town, Gone Baby Gone, Live By Night, The Last Duel. Matt Damon wrote another movie called Gerry and wrote screenplays for Promised Land, and The Last Duel (with Ben).
@@TylerWx They didn't write for 10 years after making this movie, that's how much effort and energy they poured into the script. It took them 3 years to get most of it done, in-between acting and traveling around LA for auditions, and it still had to be punched up by 2+ other writers to get it across the goalline. Good writing is hard. Plus, they did write a couple of scripts afterwards, separately and together, when they stopped acting at a breakneck speed and started to have families.
He didn’t have a large family…he made that up to tell the girl. Remember he was an orphan that was passed through the foster system. Physically and mentally abused. That’s why he never took her to “meet his family.” They (Ben and Matt) won an Oscar for the screenplay for this. They were sooo young!
Someone on another reaction video made the comment that his "family" was actually the kids he lived with in foster care.
It’s surprisingly wholesome to see people without trauma watch this movie. Like, I’m just so used to watching this where you immediately know why Will is acting like that because that’s what happens when your childhood was messed up.
Wholesome and hopeful 😌 pretty sure you know what I mean. Thks

Facts sis
Is this the shitty dads anonymous meeting?
Good Will Hunting is my favorite Robin Williams movie with Dead Poet's Society as a close second. This never gets old and the "It's Not Your Fault" scene is a tear-jerker for me every time.
Dead Poets Society and Patch Adams is my two favorites along with this one.
@@clarenceworley3714 I feel you on Patch, as it is my third. My fourth is Mrs. Doubtfire and fifth is Jack. I saw that in the movie theater and didn't realize how sad it was, though that graduation speech was just... ...I can't even describe it. Progeria is an awful condition and his performance regarding it is an oft forgotten gem.
@@joshuaciresoli2927 I've not seen Jack. It's been on my 'to watch' list but I've yet to see it.
@@clarenceworley3714 Check it out when you can and let me know what you think, bro. Anyway, it is getting a bit cold here in my tent and I have to hit the sack with my wolf hybrid, Growler, but it has been great chatting with you. I hope you have a great night
@@joshuaciresoli2927 I definitely will..stay warm brother and take care
When I was a kid we went to the bread and roses festival in San Francisco. It was a charity show to help the homeless. It was a 10 hour show full of comedians and legendary musicians.. like Peter Paul and mary, Santana ect. And robin Williams was on stage , I had bought a poster, and I screamed out "mork is my favorite.. I love you robin" lol.. I was 9 years old. Robin heard me and said "I love you more" and jumped off stage, ran to our seats, and signed my poster and gave me a hug. Thank you Robin
Wow! Sounds like he was a genuinely nice guy! Thanks for sharing this incredible story with us! ☺️
@@ReelinwithAsiaandBJ you are very welcome. Again.. I was probably the world's biggest mork and Mindy fan when I was little.. so it was a huge hilight of my young life. Had the poster on my wall for countless years
That shot of Robin's face @ 29:21 Pure cinematic gold. The love, the kindness, the empathy, the sheer love for fellow man all reflected in those eyes, caught on camera forever. This was part of Robin's gift to us in this world. He was truly an amazing spirit and loved people. When I saw this movie in theatres for the first time, this scene broke me. I don't tear up at movies, but this was magically powerful moment in movie history. RIP Robin.
When did Hollywood stop making amazing films like this Gem?
Great great acting, raw and refreshing with untapped talent. 10 out 10.
Transformers 2
When kids are abused their whole life.. they grow up not understanding that they don't deserve it. Will was abandoned by his parents and then had foster parents who abused him. So he grew up thinking he wasn't worth anything and that he somehow deserved that abuse. This happens to so many people in those situations, unfortunately.
Shawn (Robin Williams) recognized this as a counselor and he knew how to get through to him. He knew that before he could move forward and do anything with his life... he had to face the past and understand that it wasn't his fault. He had to learn that he has a right to be happy like everyone else. Because until he learns that, he will always be his own worst enemy.
Logically, intellectually kids who are abused may understand that it's not their fault. Trauma hits on emotions more than intellect. No amount of intellectually knowing it will heal wounds that are emotional. That scene is a perfect example of it.
Thank you, thank you so very much to my two favorite reactors for watching this excellent film!! Robin Williams (I miss him SO much) won a very well deserved Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for this movie and this is his best performance. Matt and Ben won the Best Screenplay Oscar. (They have been best friends for years). Another phenomenal dramatic film that Robin Williams starred in also stars Robert DeNiro and directed by Penny Marshall is "Awakenings" from 1990. The film is based on a true story and takes place in 1969. Williams plays Dr. Oliver Sachs and creates an antidote along with his staff to "awaken" patients that have been comatose for years. DeNiro plays Leonard Lowe, the first patient to receive the antidote. The film follows the effects the drug has on the patients in the summer of 1969. The film is quite moving and teaches you about the value of life. DeNiro is excellent as Leonard Lowe but the real star of the film is Robin Williams. He really shows a deep vulnerability here in his performance and it shows how incredible he is an actor. I truly hope you react to this movie someday. You will really like it.
It's amazing that 2 kids from Massachusetts wrote this screenplay and won Oscars for it while also, arguably one of the greatest comedians of all time wins his first and only Oscar, Mr. Robin Williams. It's such a good movie and amazing cast. RIP Robin Williams. Still missed, never forgotten.
SIDE NOTE: Please react to the Jason Bourne movies that Matt Damon stars in. They are really good. 😎👍
Well they did hire ghost writers for it but did give the idea to the ghost writers. They didn’t actually write the lines
@@marcwarren5985 No there wasn't. It was BS rumors that went around when nominations were being issued that year. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck worked on that screenplay for years. People just wanted to stir up trouble blaming other filmmakers that were competition for the industry awards. Matt Damon talked about those rumors when he heard about it. He had the documentation to prove that he and Affleck are the writers of the screenplay which was an original screenplay.
I highly recommend the Robin Williams movie "Good Morning, Vietnam" from 1987.
ABSOLUTELY!!! 👍😁👍. That movie is a gem 💎 💎💎
Robin Williams fart story was totally improvised. Matt Damon's laugh was very real. Reportedly the camera man was cracking up too and you can even see the subtle camera shake. One of the best written / acted movies of all time.
He also improvised the bit about Will stealing his line at the end! That wasn't at all in the script, he was supposed to just read the letter and be silent
One of my favorite movies ever. Amazing writing, acting, directing. Robin Williams put on a masterclass in this one.
The part where robin Williams is discussing with the teacher , he's been alone for 20 years , he pushes people away before they leave him is a defense mechanism " ...it's the quote that describes my life ..
Mrs. Doubtfire is a must-see in the Robin Williams' cataloge. Absolutely hilarious but also heart-felt and touching. Probably one of Williams' most quotable films, but most of his films usually are.
That is my hometown, South Boston. The L St. tavern is still there. Wills apartment now costs $2500 a month. Affleck and Damon were from Cambridge, and when they wrote the script it was based on their perceived notions, biased in ways about people from Southie. Affleck and Damon did a good job keeping the story about growing up, and finding love.
There are loads of Will Huntings out in all types of neighborhoods in this big land.
That park bench scene is one of the best scenes in the history of movies. So moving.
One of the best drama movies ever made. Entertaining, witty, and deep all at the same time. Minnie Driver was brilliant in this one and for some crazy reason keeps getting "forgotten" when people talk about this movie.
Fun fact: the wife farting in bed scene was totally improvised by Robin Williams, hence Matt Damon laughing uncontrollably. The director decided to leave it in the final take 😂
And the bit at the end were robin says he stole my line was also inprov.
I love people who comment improvised scenes in movie reactions. You think you’re cool don’t you? 😂
@@cptayne Both scenes are completely improvised though.
@@Phelddagrif1998 great story
@@cptayne What's wrong with sharing knowledge? A lot of people like behind the scenes info. What's your deal?
Fun Fact: The farting wife story was completely improvised. Matt Damon laughed his ass off.
Also, Ben Affleck's speech at the end is such a great scene. So different from the usual speeches. A real friend would rather see his friend succeed if it means never seeing them again.
How could anyone NOT laugh their ass off at an improvised scene from Robin in any movie?? 🎬😂🎬. He was an acknowledged improv master & I know they just let him “wing it” for most of his scenes from Aladdin also while playing the genie 🧞♂️😆🧞♂️
@@gerardroll6468 lol I heard they had a script for him, but his improv recordings were so good that the animation team had to remake 90% of the animations to fit his newly formed dialogue.
@@morothane They actually gave him props for the scene he was recording and let him work his magic, and then animated based on what they were going to use. Some of it wasn’t appropriate for a children’s movie…
Williams also put his own line in when he said “SOB, he stole my line”..which was the best ending line that this movie could have had!
@@morothane … Giving Robin a pre-prepared script was about as intelligent as say giving Michael Jordan or LeBron James a book titled “basketball 101” or trying to teach Tom Brady how to properly play QB, even though his career stats prove he KNOWS ☝️😁🏈. Robin could turn the crappiest of scripts into cinematic masterpieces with his improv mastery ✌️😆✌️
Matt Damon did a great job in showing what people deal with after trauma like child abuse...
Since I've gone through a similar childhood like his character did...
even dealing with his emotions years or decades after.
This film catapulted Matt Damon and Ben Affleck into super stardom as they both wrote and started in this great film. Robin Williams won best supporting actor in a, then rare, dramatic role. I know you'll love it.
@@GrandRoyal44Not a ton, World According to Garp being a big one with Dead Poets Society and Awakenings,but none earned him an ocsar until then....and he still did more comedic stuff at that point,he's a comedian. I'm not nit wrong.
I never woulda thought Mork from Ork was capable of such a masterpiece.
This movie never gets old & is 1 of my all-time favourites, especially because of Robin’s Oscar-winning performance. I’ll always laugh at the interaction between Will & the stuck-up guy from the bar/diner with the classic “Do you like apples?… (guy nods his head)… Oh yeah? Well I got her number, how do you like THEM apples?” line ✋️😂
It never gets old as a good description. Not only is it a movie that if you like it you can watch it thousand times but it's awesome movie that you can show anybody from any generation and I guarantee you they'll walk away with the tear in their eye. Ben Affleck and Matt Damon win an Oscar for this and they deserved it
@@cameronrobinson3933 … They got it for Best Screenplay didn’t they?? I think Robin stole the show in this movie & he also got a deserved Oscar.
@@gerardroll6468 yeah you are correct Robin Williams definitely deserves the Oscar. And not even as like a nod to his career but it really was the best performance of the year movie came out. Having seen him 10 years Prior playing in movies like the Dead Poets Society or the fisher king one thing I always knew about him was that he was a great actor as well as comedian. I emphasized with his demons and miss him as an actor more than most actors that aren't here anymore. Rest in peace Robin Williams
@@cameronrobinson3933 … Amen to that. I remember when I first heard about Robin’s tragic passing, I had only just finished watching one of his old standup shows & when the news filtered through to our tv news shows here in Australia, the details made me feel like I’d been hit on both sides of my head with bricks 🧱 😢🧱. He will ALWAYS be my favourite comedian as his versatility was what made him stand head & shoulders above all others. His improv skills were light years ahead of everyone else. I battled depression myself after my mother’s death in 1994 & was a heavy drinker for some time afterwards. It took a near fatal car accident in 2014 for me to finally wake up to myself & start down the road to sobriety & I’m now proud to say my battle with depression & the booze are history & I’ve been “stone cold sober” since August 31st 2014 👍😁. All the best to you my friend & I hope all is well with you in your part of the world ✌️😁
This movie made me re-examine my own life. I've never seen a better lesson in empathy and humanity than Robin William's put on in this film.
Its telling that the painting Will attacks in his first session is a man alone in a boat beset by a great storm
The Bourne Identity would be a good series for you guys.
Please watch the Bourne trilogy
Came to say the same, especially since they weren’t very familiar with Matt Damon.
@@iamangeeI thought the same thing
Yeah, I vote for that, great idea!
Second that - great series, really appreciate the feeling of realism and Matt Damon is incredible in all the films.
Without Kevin Smith becoming a producer on the film Good Will Hunting, no studio wanted either Matt Damon nor Ben Affleck in the lead roles. Even though they had both written the screenplay, the studios considered them to be unknowns. Kevin Smith, thankfully, convinced them otherwise. Please watch Clerks.(1994)
Written/Directed/Starring Kevin Smith
Clerks for sure
Will and Sean brought each other new perspectives from their own experiences and that's what you guys do for me when you react to movies. I get to see things from someone's else's point of view and it's interesting. Thanks for doing what you do, Asia and BJ!
When Will breaks down, crying his heart out and Robin William's sensationsal eyes knowing he finally broke through to him. In hurt, in trust, in vulnerability.. Breaks me apart but also makes me believe in that, there's someone that you dare expose yourself to. English is not my native tongue, so I apologize for potential errors.
Yall need to watch "The Departed". A very good movie with Matt Damon and Leonardo DiCaprio.
I related to Matt Damon's character, not because of physical abuse or the love of a woman, but I was bullied and teased from age 8 to 48 physical and emotional abuse! My parents were not there for me emotionally! I struggled scholastically but I was good soccer player! Because of the abuse I struggle with PTSD, anxiety, depression, and abandonment! I've been in counseling for 25 years and it's helping me to come out of my shell and trust people and forgive which is the most important message! Please react to Dead Poets Society Robin Williams best movie! Thank you!
"Goodmorning, Vietnam!" is one of my favorite Robin Williams films
"It's not your fault" scene is so powerful.
Thank you for your beautiful, heartfelt, and empathic reaction!
When things go wrong in our lives, subconsciously, we almost always believe that, in one way or another, we failed and consequently see it as our fault.
That`s how society has been programming us for millennia. That`s how at least 90 percent of us function. Without consciously noticing it, we take the blame and bury it deep inside our souls.
And that`s why this movie resonates with so many people.
The most profound statement in this is "IT ISN`T YOUR FAULT!". I think if somebody repeatedly addressed the same sentence, with Robin Williams`s conviction at us, we would eventually break down, just like Will.
The man with the glasses at 8:40 is John Mighton, Canadian Mathematician who has taught mathematics at the University of Toronto and at McMaster University. He guest stars/cameos in this movie as Professor Lambeau's Teaching Assistant and he was also the mathematics consultant in this movie.
Thank you both for reacting to this movie!
Robin Williams did indeed start out as a comedian, and comedic actor. The first I remember seeing of him was in the sitcom "Mork and Mindy", in which he played the part of a goofy alien visitor to our world. I still think back on that role of his very fondly, and love him in this role.
Williams did a fair bit of stand-up comedy back in the day, as well. I saw a few of his performances for Comic Relief, a semi-regular fundraising event to fight poverty.
My wife and I adore you two. A great and honest reaction and Asia, your perceptions are KEEN!! Love this. Have a blessed weekend.
One of my all time favorite movies! Glad y'all liked it. Great reaction! 🥰
My best friend, her now husband (also a friend from college) and I saw this New Years Eve, the year it came out. We were blown away. We knew it was going to win awards. Love Robin Williams. Ben and Matt Damian went to college together and started writing this then. It took them years to get it produced. They were turned down many times. I am so proud they never gave up! 💖
Super glad u guys watched and enjoyed this one. I haven’t seen it in years. Forgot how great it is. Thanks guys! 👏 👏
For most of us, we have to trawl through miles of awful films before we find the diamonds. This is one of the diamonds.
Top 5 all time favorite movies. Would love to see you guys react to Almost Famous and Rudy
It's in my personal top 5 list as well.
You guys nailed the psychological aspect of Will's mind in this movie! Great commentary AB!🤙
Mrs. Doubtfire is my favorite Robin Williams movie. Amazing movie. So funny. Love you guys.
Another masterpiece. Happy you guys watched this one.
Knowing what we know about the internal pain that Robin Williams was dealing with, you can see it in his eyes even in this movie. He was hurting on the inside. I've been there. Hell, I'm still there. It's just that good-hearted people who are hurting on the inside don't like to talk about it, because we don't want to burden anyone else with our pain and sadness. We'd rather suffer than to take the chance at making someone else feel the way we do.
Hang in there man. I've been there and still back slide sometimes. Never give up, and find something or someone that matters more to you than yourself. Didn't find my girl till I was 41 and as stressful as it can be, she's my world. Good luck
We all have a purpose. Just don't punish yourself for mistakes. The past is done, look to the future
@@jima6545 Yes Jim, you are right. We all have a purpose...
Hi Ryan Gilmore, please know that people do care and although it is hard to reach out when we feel down, you may be surprised at how many will be there for you. Hang in there, ok?🦋
In my top movie list for sure! One of the greats. RIP Robin Williams, he was a gift to humanity.
This movie and "dead poet society" are one of the best movies ever ❤❤✨
Robin Williams kill it in both 🥲🥲🥲
React to that too PLEASEEEE 😭
You all don't have no script because you all don't need one, that's cause y all are great at THIS! Best couple on the internet,!!!!! PERIOD. Il never forget the first time Asis got on a live stream, she was at the Nail Salon getting her nails DID, and I told her that day, she was gonna be great!!!! and welll the added bonus was BJ, Asia and BJ keep up the greatness because we will love the content that y all produce, I wouldn't call,y all a creator because that word doesn't explain what yalll really are. Your way past being a creator, y'all are definitely the BEST producers on the internet. Plus the VIBES you both give is what makes your videos Awesome. Much love to you both, may you continue to produce.
Great movie again :) . You should do Robin Willams Awakenings or The Dead Poet Society next . Also you can do Matt Damon The Rainmaker. You can also do some movies no reactor will ever do like Cadlic Man or The World According To Garp.
I was working in a bar when I was 19 in Richmond, London, UK. I served a young woman a drink and we had these tip trays. People in the UK don't usually tip. I spoke to this woman about it and she tipped me a pound. I asked her what she did, she said she was an actor in LA, which I thought was weird because her accent was English. I said "well good luck, I think it's a tough business". As she walked away some guy said are you Minnie Driver? I thought they meant a mini cab driver lol. She said, yes I am and walked away.
The scene where Robin Williams tells Matt Damon about whats Real Life is about was filmed on The Boston Common and there is a bench with their names on a plaque... the Park with gorgeous trees and swans is the OLDEST PARK IN THE USA... 1st Park made in America...
This movie will always be a powerful and deep discussion with anyone who hasn't seen it before. That's how really good movies should impact people. Great reaction!

PRIMAL FEAR!!!! YEEESSSS

"Primal Fear" is an Excellent movie!!! Also check out "Without a Paddle". It's funny!!
Finally watching this reaction. I like hearing you two analyze the movie as you're watching it. It's fun knowing the movie and seeing you two put it together.
Fun fact: The very last scene where he reads the note Will left. That wasn't in the script. Robin was supposed to just go down, grab it, and go upstairs. Instead, he read it, and they left it in.
I can totally relate to BJ's mention of feeling the "It's not your fault" segment. My parents divorced in the late 70s and I was just entering my teens. Divorce then isn't what it is now. If you were known to come from a "broken home", you were ridiculed because it was fairly rare. There were many times I felt that I broke my parents up simply because I felt I may have been a mistake from birth. No proof of that, but it may have been mentioned while I wasn't aware during their arguments. Both sat me down and told me it wasn't my fault, but there's still that thing in my head thinking "maybe".
The fart story was improvised. Matt Damon had no idea what Robin Williams was going to tell. Matt's laugh was genuine in that scene. 🙂
Other great Robin Williams movie's, Good Morning Vietnam, Awakening's, The Fisher King, Dead Poet's Society, Patch Adams, and one of my personal favorites Jack. Enjoy y'all 🤟
The scene where Robin talks about his wife farting in her sleep was completely improvised. A true legend at the craft. Matt Damon did the same filming Saving Private Ryan in a scene with Tom Hanks
Ben &Matt won Oscars for best screenplay, Yup!! How's there a better way to start off your big time Hollywood career than writing wit your BFF an award winning script together at such a young age, 24. Wow!
And that is how "how do you like them apples" became the most popular phrase said for the following 2 years. You would just wait for a time to be able to use that line. I cant remember how many times i said it myself and even more the amount of times I heard it.
@Asia and BJ This to me remains Ben's best film, Robin's best film, and Matt's best film. CRAZY Ben and Matt wrote this as their FIRST script. Amazing film, on pain, hurt, loss, power of therapy, love, friendship and inspiration. Love seeing you both fall in love with some amazing amazing movies and scripts.
2 more movies showing Robin Williams' brilliance, "Birdcage" and "Mrs. Doubt Fire." 👍🔥
Don't worry about the math. The symbols just represent some "thing," and the equation simply shows the relationship between those things and how changing one changes the other(s).
The actor who plays the math professor is the father of the actor who plays Pennywise in IT.
i just realized there's a movie that's similar to this that i would love to see you react to, if you haven't seen it yet. Finding Forrester was made by the same directly. the basic concept is similar but it's a pretty different movie.
Damn I miss Robin all of a sudden more than normal. This is one of the most powerful movies made in my youth.
I saw another request for *”RUDY” (1993)* I Second that that choice!! 🏈🍀🇺🇸
He wasn't going to allow himself to be vulnerable. He would protect his heart at all costs.
How lucky to have such an amazing cast for your first screen play. In addition to Matt Damon, Ben Afleck, and Robin Williams add in Stellan Skarsgard, Minnie Driver, Cole Hauser(Yellowstone) and Casey Affleck(Ben’s brother) and you have an A list cast. In an interview Matt Dam said that Robin Williams in his last seen inprovised the line “ SOB he stole my Line”.
It's amazing that this was written by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon but some of Robin Williams best lines were Robins own so the look on Matt Damons face when Robin Williams talks about his wife farming is totally genuine. I think Robins contribution cannot be over estimated.
Great movie, with a really young Matt Damon. A good one to check out with an older Matt Damon might be The Martian!
You can adopt a racing Greyhound. They are kennel kept for most of their lives. If you get one you need plenty of patience because they don’t know what grass, stairs furniture, or hard wood floors are.
How y’all ain’t seen this before is crazy! A classic!
One of my all-time favourite movies. Damon and Williams are brilliant (along with an amazing supporting cast), and the writing is hilarious, heart-warming, and heart-breaking.
Another awesome reaction, Y'all. 👍✌❤
Great movie, but my favorite Robin Williams movie is Dead Poet Society! Please react to it! Thank you!
"He is bein' detained!" 😆BJ is killing me.
Great movie! "The Fisher King" is another great Robin Williams movie.
At the end when Robin Williams is reading the letter he was just supposed to walk away. But Robin improvised and said: son of a bitch, he stole my line. The director thought it was funny and kept it in.
If you're looking for another great drama, watch director Gus Van Sant's follow up to this film, Finding Forrester, which also happens to be the 2nd to last film that Sean Connery made before retiring.
Robin Williams also improvised the “Son of a Bitch, he stole my line” 😂
Mixture of graph theory and linear algebra is the mathematic equations used in the movie.
This is one of my top 3 dramas, along with Basketball Diaries with Leonardo Dicaprio and The Cure with Brad Renfro...I challenge you guys to watch either and not cry. Basketball diaries is truly one of Leo's best movies. Underrated, but in my opinion his best acting by far.
I have always known some of the best dramatic actors often have a background in comedy. Because many carry a pain and understanding that informs their view on life.
Robin Williams
Carol Burnett
Richard Pryor
Jackie Gleason
Alan Alda
Tom Hanks
& Bill Murray, to name a few, are examples of people with strong comedic ties who can excel in dramatic roles.
I'm surprised that you didn't recognize Matt Damon as Private Ryan, a movie you recently reacted to. But your analysis of the film is correct. Many people with exceptional or powerful gifts hide behind them because it is the core of their person. It belongs to them no matter what. To risk exposing that park of yourself to the world is risking true pain to the self. You look for someone to trust while trusting no one. So, your outer person is constructed to protect the inner one. And the longer you carry it, the more weight it gains until it becomes a debilitating shield against emotional growth.
More Robin Williams suggestions,
DEAD POETS SOCIETY,
GOOD MORNING VIETNAM,
THE FISHER KING,
& MRS. DOUBTFIRE.
Enjoy

My buddy went to grad school at MIT he was crazy smart. Reminds of being young again growing up when me and my buddies would fight. My mom was a librarian and I pretty much grew up in the library...didn't go to college and know more than some of college educated friends.
Matt and Ben won the Oscar for Best Screenplay for this

another good Robin Williams movie to see is 'Good Morning Vietnam'
"Son of a bitch. He stole my line." was an adlib by Robin Williams . Not scripted.
Wow, first movie with robin williams? Sheesh, what rock have yall been living under? lol Mrs. Doubtfire, Aladdin, The final cut (another drama role), What dreams may come (will make Asia cry), Good morning Vietnam, Dead Poets Society, and several other ones. He is a legend in the movie business and in the comedy business. Love yall and I guarantee ANY of these movie suggestions will be at least top 2 in any poll you conduct.
first time watching one of your videos. i will definitely be watching more. it's refreshing to watch two people so honestly react and interact with movies and discover everything as it happens. i watch a lot of react videos and i feel like yours are unique.
Another awesome movie!!! This movie actually inspired me to become a therapist because of Robin Williams' character. This movie is relatable in so many ways. Ben Afflect and Matt Damon wrote an incredible script. Ben and Casey Affleck are brothers. Casey is younger than Ben.
Its different to watch Robin Williams in movies since his passing. It's a lot more emotional, and at the same time it's a reminder of the Robine Williams that we all knew and loved. RIP to the legend of comedy!
I watched a doc. about Williams' life and his struggle with substance abuse and mental health. He took on roles that were funny and he took on roles that were serious. Roles that he could relate to in his life; dark and serious. I think thats what made Robin Williams a great actor because he could play any character no matter what genre it was.
Sending y'all positive vibes. Awesome movie reactions, it felt like i was watching the movie with y'all IRL. Hope y'all have a great weekend.
