I love how everybody in Hollywood seems to have a story of kindness about Robin Williams. The guy was as much a legend off screen than he was on screen. There will never be this level of genius in the industry again.
Holden Mcgroine Which makes it more sad. I mean he can be funny even when not depressed, but now every time I see him being funny I just also connect it to his depression. So I’m like dying laughing and then crying in the inside as well.
Yes and such a great singer as well,them songs angels and millennium absolute classics,all the women thought he was good looking too,😝,
Oh I so loved him and he made me laugh so much. There will be anyone like the Robin Willliams
I am an old man now, but have seen through my life, how some of the most hurting human beings are also the quickest to lend a hand.
Robin Williams is my hero. And he so so truly made me laugh And yes there will never be another one like him As he put reality in a sense of humor.. OMG I so miss him. xo
The fact that he was still his agent after so many years is the sweetest part of this story, because it proves that Robin was right about Ethan and because the agent truly believed in Ethan.
And that Ethan is loyal, too :)
I love the way Hawke acknowledges the other guests on the couch.
Yes, he's quite humble.
it takes an eagle eye
He not only articulates himself so well in every interview it seems, he acknowledges everyone he has worked with. And he now is a novelist and I work in a library, and I buy his books! And they're good.
Diapontios: you're right! This is what we are supposed to do when we are with more than one person. Include everybody in the conversation. (By the way, if you don't mind my asking, your name is lovely. Is it Greek?)
YES! and I love how you acknowledged his acknowledgment.
I'm very aware of when people talking and someone in the group doesn't feel part of it
“You’re going to be somebody.” - that is such a huge compliment in the acting world
Robin Williams .... What an amazing human being. May his soul rest in peace.
His soul is not resting, if I know robin than wherever he is he's making someone laugh.
Alex O 5 years since his death, I’m still not over it. I miss him like a family member, I hope that wherever he is now, he is still laughing and changing the world. Love you robin❤️
Mashallah tbark allah alhamudillah inshallah better AStgfrallah
The horrific irony was we lost Robin, like they lost Neil. If laughter can't save us, what can possibly save us?
@@tactrix1h Had me in the first half, not gonna lie...
Robin Williams. To this day your name still affects me. It brings me laughter and tears at the same time. Deeply missed
Frank Holguín me too i started crying when he was telling the story..
I always feel sad every time I drive through the Robin Williams tunnel after crossing the bridge into Marin.
Frank Holguín same here mate. I was going to post that comment!
Ethan Hawke is one of the finest actors of our time. I'm glad Williams noticed and helped him start.
Agreed.
In the ‘90s I worked at a video store in Pacific Heights and Robin was an infrequent customer. In all of my interactions with him, he was always the subdued, don’t-call-attention-to-myself Robin that probably most non-San Franciscans didn’t see. He was always unfailingly polite and I greatly enjoyed being able to discuss what he was renting and why since it was usually in preparation for a part. He was a genuinely lovely person and it is still wrenching to know he is gone. 💔💔💔💔💔
Mary Rose Kent Very cool that you had a normal conversation with him and didn't just scream for a pic or autograph. I remember telling Dermot Mulroney he was good in My Best Friend's Wedding and he seemed really appreciative.
Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you Mary Rose Kent for sharing such a beautiful moment with a beautiful man and human being.
Wow. That is excellent. Thanks.
Because he still owes you late fees?
I’ve always loved Ethan Hawke, so nice to see him here.
I still watch 1985 Explorers once a month.
THAT movie is wonderful and Ethan was great in that. Makes it easy to remember being that age and being with your pals. 🍓
Michael Stevens Agreed :) He is a super talented actor who always keeps a low profile. I love watching his interviews because he is so wise and well-spoken.
O'Captain, My Captain 😭
come on don't make me cry!
O captain, my captain.
O Captain! My Captain!

That story just warms my heart so much. All Williams wanted was to make people laugh, may he rest in peace. We miss you!
Damn he got choked up at the end, we all miss Robin Williams
What a great story. Hearing about their dynamic off camera makes it so clear why their relationship on camera seemed so authentic. I feel like there's a lot of parallels between Hawke trying to be serious while Williams was trying to get him to laugh and Todd trying not to be noticed while Mr. Keating works to break him out of his shell. Robin Williams really was a treasure.
Wow a Montgomery Clift mention.
Ethan Hawke out here being an actor on levels most of these kids couldn't possibly comprehend right now.
Chuck Sorgi exactly
He has a couple of videos in which discuss with the audience about art, cinema, and expressing emotion. Ethan Hawke is quite a professional when talking about acting. I loved him in Boyhood and Training Day
Montgomery Clift was such a great actor. He was born in Omaha, Nebraska (my home state) and lived there until he was a small child. I recommend From here to Eternity or A Place in the Sun if you want to check out his films.
And a Zero Mostel mention.
Dead Poet's Society is one of my favourite films.
My late fiance looked so much like Robin Williams, people would ask for his autograph! I feel so sad about Robin's death still, and of course the love of my life, he died 27 years ago, it took a long time to get over his death, but I am happy to have such an amazing partner.
RIP Robin and Gary.
I'm sorry for your lost... But I celebrate the memories that last a lifetime.
)))): RIP both of them ))):
I've seen it a millions times, but when Todd/Ethan finally musters up the courage, and stands up on that desk to shout "Oh Captain. My Captain?' I lose it every time. Iconic moment.
I ran into Robin in a tennis shoe store in San Francisco and he put on a private show for me and my girlfriend. Amazing!
Woah. What kind of show? What did he do? You’re really lucky
This is why we all love Robin Williams
if not Benedict Cumberbatch, i wanted him as Dr. strange ;: ))
He doesn't like Superhero movies
@@ahanafmuttaki6284 Well, Benedict likes it now... :D
@@mishkakviriashvili6395 I meant Ethan
He couldn't, Ethan was in Vienna, at railway station that December the auditions were going on.
@@ichneumon2776 I see what you did there
ROBIN WILLIAMS IS IN PART responsible for Training Day... I love that man, so damn much!
Reality Bites, Before Sunrise/Sunset/Midnight, Gattaca and countless other great movies.
What a beautiful, heartwarming story, one more proof what a wonderful person Robin Williams was. I grew up watching his films and I am still heartbroken he is no longer with us. Dead Poets Society is one of my favourite films of all time. 💓
That is some serious acting chops and willpower if one can resist laughing in the presence of an active Robin Williams.
Robin Williams was such a beautiful soul, he’s deeply missed by everyone. I hope he rests in peace.
Having been born and raised around San Francisco and working in Hollywood for over a decade, I never heard one bad word spoken about Mr. Williams. Not one. We lost a beautiful soul. Depression is horrible. I wish he could have felt the love we returned to him.
I love Ethan. He picks movies carefully and really good ones. He is one under-rated star. Wish he got more movies done.
A fine actor who I respect. Intelligent, thoughtful and considerate.
RIP Robin Williams The Greatest Comedian Ever!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Really, no. He was good. But no.
RIP 🐐
Greatest improv comedian ever, no question. And I can't think of a comedian who was a better actor. I always say Robin Williams was one of the best dramatic actors and should have been offered more great roles. He got a few, and won an Oscar, but he should have been offered more dramatic roles.
Robin Williams wasn't just funny, that was the thing - he was warm and big-hearted as a performer... and he had such a depth of understanding about the human condition. This was what made his acting brilliant. He understood not just slapstick / quick quips but could also pull off subtle situational humour. Just watch Awakenings. In Aladdin, listen how he turns on a dime from manic to wise and world-weary. What a gift.
makes me want to rewatch Robin's appearance on this show again
I like to think that Robin saw that he couldn't make Ethan break, even at a very young age - a truly outstanding quality in an up-and-coming actor.
I never met him, and so a never knew him. Only from his movies. When I knew he pass....I cried. How can we love someone we never met? And I truly miss him. Even as I type now, I’m in tears.
Same here
I do too
same
There’s a tunnel that leads to and from the Golden Gate Bridge that was renamed after Robin Williams. I tear up every time I pass the sign that says “ROBIN WILLIAMS TUNNEL”. Thankfully I don’t have to go into San Francisco via HWY 101 very often.
Evie Winchester Same...and I am always surprised. We have not forgotten you, Robin! One of a kind.
Oh man... I can't watch clips with Robin Williams since he's gone, and even this one just talking about him made me cry. I didn't know his death would affect me so much.
Same here. Robin was my childhood. From Hook to Mrs Doubtfire to Dead Poets to Good Will Hunting and much more. When he passed he took a part of us kids with him.
Yes, there's a bit of that! For me it's also the fact that he gave us so much and yet he was so sad himself. I feel like people like him deserve to be truly happy.
Dead Poets Society is one of the greatest movies of all time. A true masterpiece.
Ethan grew up in the same neighborhood as me when I was little. He babysat for me a couple times. The annoying thing is that now I look older than he does...
Ethan Hawke is one of my favourite people. Great actor and seems like such a genuine dude.
Is that that person in picture Wilson from House M D
Yashas Athreyas B.L. Yes. Robert Sean Leonard was in Dead Poets Society and in House.
Yup!
Robert Sean Leonard is the most important character from this movie apart from Robin William's one.
@@Fadeintodeepdarkness He and Christian Bale were a great pair in Swing Kids.
RIP Robin Williams......its too early to miss you.
I miss Robin Williams
Great story! Probably one of my favorite movies of Hawks was "A Midnight Clear" which came out in the early 90s. A movie about young soldiers in WW2 at the Battle of the Bulge..highly recommended.
I'll check it out, I was looking for another WW2 to watch last week, thanks!
Man I miss that guy, Robbin Williams was the best :)
Love both of these actors.
No more
There will never anyone like you Robbin. You’ve made this whole universe choked up with laughter.
Nowadays you dont find anyone who genuinely wanna make you laugh without any selfish reason. People like Robbin are only few respect them and let them grow.
Love you Robbin. You’ll be with us forever. RIP
First thing I remember seeing ethan hawke in was a film called explorers, also starred river phoenix. My favourite film as a kid.
I live in the town where part of Dead Poets Society was filmed!! The theater that the play, Mid Summers Night Dream, was filmed in has all these pictures of Robin Williams in it! Everyone that was here when it was filmed have a ton of great stories!! Loved Robin Williams!!
Toni Collette is such an AMAZING actress
WTF is Salah doing here ? Shouldn't he be recovering from the injury ?
Lol, only real futbol fans will get this joke
Robin T_T We love and miss you :(
Sounds like Robin was the classic jester to overly-serious people. The world needs that.
O captain my captain! Robin Williams we miss you! 💜
Robin Williams. What a concept. May the angels above take care of you, sweet prince. We all miss you tremendously.
i'm a big fan of how much ethan hawke has learned in his life and how honest he is with his openness.
He has made some brilliant films.
That story was so awesome I had to watch it twice. Makes me wonder what his agent did to deserve the referall. Probably another awesome story there too.
Wow... I wasn't expecting that ending...and now I'm crying
RIP and long live Robin Williams (July 21, 1951 - August 11, 2014), aged 63
You will always be remembered as a legend.
I don't know if I will ever be able to see Dead Poets Society again because of the suicide scene not because that's what Robbin William's my favourite actor did who is in the film of course as spoken here but because my brother just took his own life as well. I am devastated.
love both actors. dead poets society is one of my all time favorites.
"....Zero Mostel or something"
That cracked me in there and I couldnt watch no more, I tried to pause but I was rolling on the floor and couldnt come up until many minutes after and stupid YT ads yakityyaked on a roll
You too are seriously funny too, mr. Hawke I see you too have learned that the greatest actors even struggle with comedy and is of the 2 pillars/masks of Theatre itself and any full thespian must tender care to as both wings of any messenger angel to deliver the goods and their timing layers between both faces, like on Life itself they ying-yang...
Trying to stay serious and not even smile around Robin Williams was futile and just foley... Could you imagine if he would have been your roommate in College like poor Steve Reeve had to...suffer?
Robin Williams has such an eye for talent. Ethan Hawke is one of the better actors of his generation. Unfortunately, he is underrated.
I bet he would have been a great Jason Bourne, or some character like that.
Amazing Ethan Hawke!
Wow. the ending brought unexpected tears to my eye.
I like this guy's acting.
Robin is the only guy I know that u watch this comedy specials and it makes u feel like he is still alive and unfortunately after u are finished watching u realise he is dead he is magical if I could go back in time I would take video tributes from just after this death and try and stop him from committing suicide
By the way, Ethan Hawke in The Good Lord Bird is absolutely f-a-n-t-a-s-t-i-c!
Who else is stuck in the never ending loop
of The Graham Norton show 👀
Great choice Robin Williams to get Ethan signed for acting. Good actor. There would not be any training day if not for Ethan.
Ethan looks so much like the singer of Sugar Ray it's crazy.
Don't usually watch Graham Norton 's interviews but when I found out Ethan Hawke was going to be in his show, i had to make an exception,such a great actor and seems like a nice guy too.
Robin was amazing in his kindness to others. I hear that Keanu Reeves is, also. But you don't hear much about his kindness because he's not well known like Robin was. This quality is rare in people.
Hello there. Thank you very much for your lovely words, I really do appreciate it. Tell me what's your favorite movie of all my movies you have seen so far?
He was so beautiful in Dead Poet's society and Training day. Two of my favorite films.
Hello there. Thank you very much for your lovely words, I really do appreciate it. I'm glad I impressed you with training day and dead poets society, it's always a wonderful feeling for me when I get positive reviews from my fans and admirers of my works. Where are you from?
One of my favorite person ever Robin Williams
RIP.
Robin Williams a classic legend 🙂🙏🏽🙏🏽
I miss you Robin
How is it that all of the stars of my youth just get better and better looking? Ethan Hawke has that whole rebel professorial thing going.
Damn it, Robin Williams really was a good one, a really good one, and there aren't many.
Is Ethan Hawk morphing into John Malkovich?
In the 90s, Robin lived near my brothers apartment in San Francisco.
I probably saw Robin a dozen times over a 2 year period; sometimes at the local grocer, but often at the Cheesesteak shop off Divisadero Street.
He loved that Cheesesteak shop. They have signed movie posters that are still on the walls.
Who else is stuck in the never ending loop of The Graham Norton show. 👀👀
Heartbreaking missing Robin Williams
Is it weird that i think he is promoting training day?
From '12 Years A Boy', innit.
if there is one guy who deserves to rest in peace, it's Robin
I love you Ethan. I didn't know that you are funny. Now I love you more! ❤❤❤❤
*The LIKE ratio is off the charts on this one.* Good deal. I think, innately, people like to see good things happen to good people ...regardless of their level or station in life. There's hope for us yet.
Be who you are, not what you think people want you to be and you’ll always make an impression.
Ethan seems like such a down to earth good dude :)
I must've watched this video a thousand times. Every single time, when Ethan says "he's still my agent now" I burst into tears. Robin Williams was my favorite, and I felt I could relate to so many things he's been through.
This is a nice story. It showed that not only was Robbin Williams a good actor but he also recognized talent. That's awesome.
This is a huge thing Robin did, he changed his life and gave us "training day" with hawke
His big break was: The Explorers Graham should of known that tut tut
Robin Williams was such a HUMAN being.
Ah man Robin was testing him , and then he rewarded him ❤️💜❤️
Robin Williams.
Some actors are made for indies and contemporary movies. I kinda like it. I think if they acted more in mainstream movies it'll spoil my perception of them as actors. Am I making sense here ?
I can name Ethan Hawke, Willem Defoe from the top of my head
great story.... still lost for understanding the big WHY
Robin Williams was pure genius at comedy and his wild fast-paced stream of consciousness ad libs. But he was also a phenomenal dramatic actor! Such a sad ending to a remarkable man
Not really. He was never funny. His movies were sometimes funny because of great writers. His talk show appearances, stand up shows and interviews were never funny. Shouting and talking in a loud voice doesn't mean funny
@@wolverineiscool7161 Ummm, yeah… right. Hence his very limited popularity. LMFAO
Robin was love!
Ethan can be funny without trying. Brilliant man.
No surprise.
Sometimes the term “brilliant” is too narrowly interpreted. Robin Williams was hyper intelligent and incredibly sensitive, with a knack for reading a room no matter how populated.
I wish Robin felt the love in life that he receives in death 😓❤
