Inside The Actors Studio - Robin Williams

Robin Williams almost single handedly paved the way for comedians who wanted to take their comedic timing and successfully turn it towards the world of drama. After his cinematic debut in Robert Altman's Popeye, Williams proved to the world time and time again that he is a dramatic force with which to be reckoned, turning in Academy Award nominated performances in Good Morning Vietnam, Dead Poet's Society, The Fisher King and Good Will Hunting (for which Williams won the Oscar). Through it all, Williams has kept his audiences rolling with laughter, whether it was onstage in his Emmy nominated HBO special Live ON Broadway, on the silver screen with critically acclaimed roles in films such as Man Of The Year or simply behind the scenes for exhausted film crews. This memorable episode of Inside The Actors Studio is the most requested of any and proves that Williams still has what it takes to touch the hearts of his fans with the one tool no one wields better... comedy.
