    Hook for comedy and One Hour Photo for more of a dramatic movie.

      Hook was a very fun performance of his.

    I love "what dreams may come", and it's surprisingly fitting to the situation.

      That was a very interesting film.  Dead Poets's Society is another appropriate one.  I love that scene where he is whispering "Carpe Diem" to the students and reminding them that they will soon be fertilizing daffodils.

      my wife and I are watching Dead Poet's Society Now.  We watched Hook last night, and we're saving Good Will Hunting and What Dreams May Come for this weekend.  He was a brilliant man. Hopefully this shines a light on depression - and it's seriousness

    There are so many good ones, but I loved Awakenings.  It was based on a true story and was so moving. 

    I also enjoyed him as the genie in Aladdin.  He was perfect for it.

      I'll have to go back and watch Awakenings.  I remember it being very profound.  I'd completely forgotten about that one.  Good choice!

    I ask this same question at my FB page. My favorite is "Dead Poet's Society".

    Good Will Hunting.  People are always amazed when a comic turns in an excellent dramatic performance.  What they don't realize is that comedy is the hard part.  If you can do that, you can do most anything.  But it's his interviews I'm going to miss most.  Nobody could interview him without losing it at some point.  His improvisational talent had no bounds.  What a waste to lose him so soon.

      Robin's performance in Good Will Hunting is one of the best in all of cinema history.  I like it when he tells Will that's it's not his fault.  Just goes to show that we are all a little broken.

    "Mrs. Doubtfire"

    It's based in San Fransisco, where I use to live, and my kids love watching it, too.

    He starred in many great roles but I love his role in "The Big White."

    Great question, I don't do favorites well...two that stick with me do so because of my children. Jumanji and Hook.  I also liked Mrs. Doubtfire. I'd like to see Flubber and Good Will Hunting. Has anyone seen Flubber?
