Fun fact, the whole “she used to fart in her sleep” speech from Robin Williams was totally ad libbed. Matt Damon didn’t know where he was going with it, his laughter was genuine and spontaneous from the monologue.
That’s hilarious!!! No wonder I found it so out of place in the most wonderful way.
Also, if you look closely during that scene you can see the camera shaking because the cameraman was laughing too!
@@Bad_Miracle I didn’t know that!
"It's not your fault! ". This scene still resonates in me for so many years... Ben and matt wrote the screenplay and got the Oscar!
Just incredible they did that! That scene is one of the best pay offs I’ve seen.
@@thecocoacouch Robin Williams also won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for this role as well!
Robin Williams was a gift from god to all of us. The absolute king of improv comedy, and just as talented at drama. He won the Oscar for his part in this film, and was very well deserved. His acceptance speech for his award is also held in very high regard. This isn't his only dramatic role, but I do believe it is his best. He is, and always will be loved, and missed by all of us in the generations who grew up with him, and those who knew him before he left us. God bless him, and I hope he rests in peace. (just a suggestion, since you are kinda in the "classics" mode..try the Disney film "Aladdin" the animated one with Robin as the genie..he was allowed to improv most of his lines...he shows his genius there as well. You won't be disappointed, especially if you like animated/Disney stuff). Brian
Like this comment x 10. Spot on.
Then, you haven't seen "Dead Poets Society" yet? So worth the time. This is such a wonderful movie--great performances from all. And a truly great reaction, too! Looking forward to the next one!
Robin Williams is the reason I became an actor. I was honored to meet him in 2011. He was so warm, and humble, and giving. When he passed, I stayed in bed and cried uncontrollably for three days. This film got me into therapy, and I have several breakthroughs directly related to it. Then, I did the park monologue in an audition, and it certainly pushed my career along a few steps. I actually went to the park in Boston a couple of years ago and sat on the bench for a while. Very strange feeling. This film is so important to me, as it is a great many other people. I would love to see your reaction to What Dreams May Come, a sadly overlooked yet devastatingly beautiful and poignant Robin film.
OMG yes! What Dreams May Come is soooooo good! Gut wrenching, but good lol. I'm an artist and it always inspires me to get back to the easel 🎨 Robin Williams movies always have a way of moving and inspiring people, especially his dramatic roles. I really hope Oscar sees this and puts What Dreams May Come on his "to watch" list 🙏RIP Robin you legend.
If you liked this movie and Robin Williams, you'd find Dead Poets Society interesting. I got to meet Robin Williams @ the International Special Olympics in 1987. Beautiful human being. So sad he is no longer with us...
A second vote for Dead Poet's Society. He's stellar in that.
A third vote for Dead Poets Society. It’s one of my favorite movies.
It always gets me when Will cries. You know that dude was holding that in for a long time; probably couldn't cry even if he wanted to, like emotional constipation
Oh gosh I know what that's like... well maybe not so much with real life events BUT it reminds me of one movie experience I had once:
Typically I actually really enjoy tearjerker movies, but with ME, there's a catch: I am completely unable to cry IF there is ANY sort of anxiety or anger present in me- I need to be sad but ALSO 100% "calm" for any tears to happen. SO... during my first watch of [the Korean version of] "Miracle in Cell No. 7", since there was a gross injustice in that film along with obviously sad events, I was SO on the verge of crying BUT my "anger" kept pulling the sadness back in, so it couldn't come out. It wasn't until the next day when I was writing a comment about how it would have been better if the movie had included some sort of punishment for the instance of injustice... when tears finally came. But yeah... never had I been so "emotionally constipated" as during and a day after THAT movie!
I feel like that cry
Was real. Such a release of emotion. I think we’ve all cried like that before. It may start as acting but ends in true emotion.
When it comes to Robin Williams' movies, apart from "Good Will Hunting", which is the absolute best, I really love "What Dreams May Come". Not only does it show Robin's talent in a dramatic role but is visually captivating and philosophically deep in terms of the issues it deals with and questions it leaves you with.
What dreams may come is such a crushing movie
The line in Good Will Hunting about a woman who could drag you from the depths of hell always feels like it inspired whoever wrote What Dreams May Come
Have you seen Robin Williams in "One-hour Photo"?
He played his creepy character so well, I forgot it was Robin.
@@Peg__ such a weird creepy movie. But super good.
Now you need to check out his performance in Dead Poets Society.
Awakenings, Dead Poets Society, and What Dreams May Come, if you want to see Robin in more dramatic rolls. He kills it every time.
Top 5 movie for me. Sean’s monologue at the lake and chuckies speech at the end and “it’s not your fault” might be 3 of the best monologues.
I love that you are reacting to literally all of my favorite movies lol. This movie is so close to perfect. The dialogue is just unreal.
One of my favorite movies ever, Robin Williams won an Academy Award for this role. Two other amazing performances are him in Dead Poets Society and Patch Adams.
Aladdin gets a honorable nod too
@@AHMspadina Absolutely ☺️
Robin Williams was one of those actors who could play ANY type of character brilliantly. Of course his comedy is legendary, but he could also do great dramatic roles as well. I also love that this film started as a school project that Matt Damon had to complete. It started as a 40 page script, and was then flushed out when he brought Ben Affleck on board. I really love this movie because it was shot in Toronto, Canada (where I live). I like watching and thinking "I know where that is!" when I see a familiar location! 😅 Great pick, and great video!
Robin Williams in the movie "Awakenings" is spectacularly good as well. Awakenings was the true story of the use of the drug L-Dopa for the treatment of catatonic (vegetative) conditions related to encephalitis. It is a very moving cinematic adaptation and is another of William's great dramatic roles. The movie got three Academy Award nominations and co-starred Robert De Niro.
It would definitely be worth doing a reaction to .
yay!! i'm so glad you're reacting to this gem 🌟
It was incredible!!!
Love your channel! For another incredibly moving Robin Williams performance, please take a look at "Awakenings". It's a beautiful film that doesn't get enough credit!
Yes! Came here to say the same thing.
I love Robin in serious roles. Besides this, the other great ones are Dead Poet Society, One Hour Photo (my personal favorite), Awakenings, The Fisher King, Good Morning Vietnam, and perhaps a little know forgotten film called Being Human.
I loved One Hour Photo...that was a great one. Though he was a villain in that one, you can't help but feel for him.
Notice how Sean went from calling Will 'Chief' at the onset of their relationship to calling him 'son' byt the end?
If you're interested to see another dramatic Robin Williams performance in a *completely* different sort of story, check out the afterlife drama "What Dreams May Come." Stunning visuals and brilliant performances.
OR, another completely different sort: Christopher Nolan's early crime thriller "Insomnia" where Robin plays a soft-spoken but menacing character.
Also... Everything from "Jack" to "One Hour Photo" help to showcase his fantastic range.
Seeing you becoming totally emotional while listening to Robin William's monologue on the bench makes me adore you even more.
Your beautiful heart is definetely in the right place.
Protect that golden heart of yours at all costs! ❤❤❤
There is a saying: "The problem with the world is that intelligent people are full of doubt while dumb people are so full of confidence"
One of the most intelligent people I've ever met in real life unfortunately got into alcohol and drug problems and I wasn't able to help him
I'd say the majority of the most intelligent people in the world don't go to universities, most of them lose faith early.. I'm not saying there are not intelligent people in universities, just much fewer than u would think and the greatest geniuses are probably not found there
It is such a great movie.. that bench where Robin Williams gave Will the speech in Boston is where people from all over came to leave flowers after Robin Williams passed away
Good Will Hunting is a classic. But Robin Williams has been in many wonderful dramas. Dead Poet's Society, Good Morning Vietnam, The Fisher King and the World According to Garp are a few of my favourites. Robin had such range and skill, as many comedic actors do, and he could play the quiet, introspective characters as much as bombastic, over the top characters. His death was a shock to the world, but with his diagnosis, he knew he was going to lose himself, and I think he wanted to spare himself and his family the tragedy to come. In any case, his work lives on, and this was one of his best roles. I would recommend Dead Poet's Society though, as it has a similar mentoring feel to the role as this one.
Ben & Matt co-wrote this movie and won an award for best writing.
Some more robin Williams movies I'd love to see your reaction to: dead poets society, mrs.doubtfire patch adams, jumanji (1995), hook
For me, the scene with Robin Williams and Matt Damon in the Park explains the Entire Thrust/the Heart of the Story... Brilliant Film...
You get films. It’s amazing to me how you can see what’s going to happen next. You are a natural film critic. Have you seen One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest? It stars Jack Nicholson.
A truly different role for Robin Williams is as a villain in August Rush. You should check it out. 😊
You must see the movie frequency with Dennis Quait.
Damn this movie is so fascinating, exciting and sad.
I bet you love this film, trust me 😊
Try Awakenings and Dead Poets Society with Robin. Great movies.
4:23 "that's one of my favorite scenes in a movie" while not knowing that this movie has the bench and breakthrough scene incoming in the same movie O_O The farting line was improv from Williams, you can see the camera shaking because they were laughing at 14:33. lol Awakenings is another overlooked Robin Williams movies based on real events and it has Robert De Niro as well.
Your reviews are very thoughtful. This is one of my all-time favorite films.
Chucks monologe to will about how he wishes Will would just leave without a goodbye or care in the world really was the ultimate "tough love" Will needed and it was such a beautiful testament to their friendship
What do Robin Williams and Tom Hanks have in common? They started their fame as comedy actors on TV sitcoms, and worked their way up to being dramatic actors in movies and both ended up winning ACADEMY AWARDS for best acting! ...and they deserved it cause they probably learned, through showing comedy emotions, how to master doing dramatic emotions as well...that's just my own opinion.
Please can I suggest you try reacting to the movie THE OUTSIDERS ? There are no academy award performances in it, but the emotions you will feel are similar to this reaction. It's based of a famous book and loaded with famous actors, like Tom Cruise, Patrick Swayze, Rob Lowe, just to name a few . Thanks again and keep smiling👍🙂
Such a brilliant screenplay, and PURE LUCK that they got Robin Williams. Without him, this film would not have been nearly so impactful. Robin's greatest gift was connecting with people by turning pain into humor.
That scene on the bench was something special
Oscar, the first therapist is played by George Plimpton, primarily a writer who acted mostly for fun. His career and biography might interest you.
If we're talking about more dramatic RW roles, you might also enjoy him in What Dreams May Come, Patch Adams, and One Hour Photo. One Hour Photo is very different though.
Most people love Robin Williams as a comedian but he's my favorite dramatic actor.
1997 was one of the best years in film history. You had great cinematic juggernauts like Titanic. Then you have smart masterpieces like Good Will Hunting and LA Confidential
That fart joke was improvised by Robin Williams.
There are several excellent dramatic films featuring Robin Williams, including Dead Poets Society, Awakenings, The Fisher King, and more.
Have you ever seen any Robert Altman films? It sounds like you would enjoy them.
"He nailed it!" - Yes, Robin Williams absolutely nailed that role. The other actors also did a great job. And as for the writing - excellent!
I remember being in tears in the movie theatre and feeling a bit silly. until I looked around and didn't see a dry eye anywhere near Me.
Matt said they didn't have a last line for Robin Williams, he was just to say silent and Robin added He stole my line. One of my favorites ❤
Hey not sure if you’ll see this but if you like the theme of “traditionally funny actors playing serious roles” I highly recommend “Stranger than Fiction” for Will Ferrell and my all time favorite “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” for Jim Carrey
Great reaction, Oscar! This movie is so good. The monolgue in the park and the "It's not your fault" bits in particular are my favourites. Robin Williams was brilliant in his role as the therapist, it makes me want to become a child psychologist. Please add "What Dreams May Come" onto your "to watch" list 🙏 I'd love to see your reaction to that gut punch of a movie. It's such a beautiful film too, so cinamatic and visually stunning at times. Oh and of course Robin Williams' acting is top shelf, as always. Big love from Manchester UK xXx
“The Awakenings” (true story) stars Robin Williams and Robert DeNiro. It’s excellent and I highly suggest it. Of course, “Dead Poets Society” is a true classic as well.
Adding my voice to the others that have suggested you check out What Dreams May Come (1998). It was adapted from Richard Matheson's novel of the same name. I think it is one of Robin Williams most powerful and heartbreaking performances. Then again, I could be bias since I love the book also.
So well-written by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. All those improvised scenes with Robin Williams which majority of his stuff is ....incredible.
This is by far my number one favorite movie. Thank you for allowing us to watch it with you to hear. Genuine reactions means everything in this world today.
Good Will Hunting is one of my favorite movies of all time. It never gets old, and yet another film I got the pleasure of seeing on the big screen. The Academy Award Matt and Ben won for, Best Screenplay was definitely well deserved.
I enjoyed your reaction once again. Can't wait to see you react to my favorite film, The Shawshank Redemption!
If you like Robin in dramatic roles, you should see “The World According To Gary”. His first dramatic role (with some funny mixed in,) that he should have gotten an Oscar for. Great reaction! You are so sweet, cute and have an adorable laugh.
I vote "One Hour Photo". Not only is it an incredible performance by Robin Williams, but it's so distinct from anything else in his catalogue. Also a trauma rooted film, but much less feel good than this.
Great reaction! Note: Morgan was played by Ben Affleck's real-life brother, Casey Affleck.
You are an EXCELLENT movie reactor.
I've watched a ton of reactions on my 2nd to 3rd fave movie ever, and this is probably the very best.
You know how to do it.
Thankyou!!
You'll love his character arc in What Dreams May Come, along with stunning visual effects and great co-stars.
Please consider watching "Awakenings".
It is also a movie that will stay with you, and it is so meaningful too. (Based on a true story).
Robin Williams & Robert De Niro are both in the movie---They do a great job.
Loved the reaction man. Just one small tip, if you want to bleep a curse word just silence the audio instead of adding a sound or cutting around it. Makes it smoother
Yeah I’ll do that 😆
This is an excellent movie, not the least because of the wonderful Robin Williams (RIP).
Robin Williams has given us all so many wonderful performances, some of my favorites are: The World According to Garp (1982), Moscow on the Hudson (1984), Awakenings (1990), The Fisher King (1991).
Robin William's monologue always makes me cry.
please give "Scent of a Woman" a try. It's one of Al Pacino's best movies, and judging by this reaction I'm willing to bet you're gonna love It.
YES to all the recs for DEAD POETS SOCIETY!! I'm so old I saw it in the cinema, and it was so impactful I stayed in my seat and watched it again. Harrison Ford joked that the only way it could have a worse title is if it were called Dead Poets Society in Winter. So ignore the boring title. GREAT FILM!!!
Two scenes stand out: the park bench monologue, which WHAT THE FUCK, it’s so good….
And also the “it’s not your fault” scene, which is why Matt Damon has one of the most convincing cries in Hollywood….. btw, they had a limit to the word “fuck” for this film, bc Miramax didn’t allow them to say it many times, and I think they exceeded it by over 100 times…..
I was lucky enough to be introduced to Robin Williams via the TV series Happy Days which launched the spinoff Mork & Mindy, and then what followed was a series of stand-up concerts and movies that he inhabited with his love, charm and humor. Moscow on the Hudson, The Fisher King, Dead Poets Society, this title, Good Morning Vietnam and all the rest. I would kind of describe him as a Mr. Rogers type who would swear and make sex and drug jokes, yet achieved the same result: that it's important to be kind and loving and empathetic. Angels guide thy flight.
God, i miss Robin. This movie gets me every time Robin believed in the script so much that he took a huge pay cut to get the film made..❤❤❤
Fantastic movie. You need to watch Dead Poets Society, one of his best dramatic roles. Also Goodmorning Vietnam and Patch Adams are both fantastic, funny and dramatic.
This movie is an absolute Masterpiece. It is perfect in every way.
And Robin Williams is a Gem.
This might be close to a perfect movie. RIP Robin Williams
this movie changed my dang life. changed a whole lot of people's.
By far Robins best role
Robin Williams was a tremendous actor.
Really Awesome reaction! Thanks for sharing this one!
So happy to see you react to a movie with Robin Williams! I would love to see you react to Patch! He's even more amazing in it.
If I may, as someone living with trauma, maybe don't use the term "fix" when talking about people. People have trauma and maybe need healing, but they don't need to be fixed.
This is not a critic at all, cause you seem like a really caring and kind person, but just wanted to let you know.
Really loved your react! Can't wait to see the next one 😁
Sorry in advance for my English, it's probably not perfect because I'm French. Have a nice day.
That’s okay!! I really appreciate being called out. Definitely insensitive language I used, I even went back to cut that out because I felt it was wrong to have in the video so thank you. I loved seeing Robin Williams in a dramatic role! Have a good day ☺️
"What Dreams may Come" - best Robin Williams movie of all time
Justscribed love ur reaction’s embarrassed I didn’t sooner. The last line SOB stole my line was all Robin wasn’t in the script
This movie was really a great movie about mental health before mental health was really taken seriously. Obviously it's just one situation, but at the time there was really not many shows or movies that really looked into the psyche of a person, and if there were movies like that, it always came out to "this person is crazy so they are a murderer". Good Will Hunting did a good job of showing that a lot of people, if not most people, need psychological help. It's normal to feel like you aren't normal and that's what I think most people don't understand.
"Patch adams" is another great movie with Williams playing a serious role.
This is one of my favorite movies
Such a great movie, the monologues, the acting, the directing, and so quotable!
Another really good dramatic movie with Robin Williams is "Dead Poets Society". I think you would really like that one too! ❤😊
Hey, Oscar. If you want to see Robin Williams in another great dramatic role, you should watch The Dead Poets Society! It's a stellar movie.
Proud Marshmallow that’s SO excited for this reaction! 😊
Watch "Dead Poets Society". You will love him in this movie, too.
You are a beautiful soul, glad I found this channel ♥
You should watch Dead Poet's Society too. One of Robin William's masterpiece
Thanks, Oscar! 🍎 #TheCocoaCouch #GusVanSant #GoodWillHunting
I have a masters degree in maths and no-one ever wants to hear about the details outside of uni. So the scene where the room is crammed with non-mathematicians wanting to see who proved it is unrealistic. No-one would care outside of the maths and physics departments. Maybe some compsci might if they dabled in both areas.
My favorite Robin Williams movie is "Dead Poets Society." I think you'd love it.
You are lucky that you didn't have to go through so many bad movies. When people recommend you a movie here, it will be very difficult for you not to like it. If we remember it from the 90s, 80, 70, or even later, it's for a reason. This pairing of such incredible actors, Robin Williams and Matt Damond can't fail. Even one of them alone in a movie makes it difficult for it to be a bad one. Longevity of remembrance a classic makes.
Bro you have a great attitude. Love watching you react to my favorite movies. There's a movie called Powder. Someone like you would appreciate the heck out of it. Everyone's sleeping on it
Finding forester has the same director and is beautiful ❤
Matt Damon in THE TALENTED MR. RIPLEY
Incredible movie! Great reaction! Thank you!
Vinnie is made fun of, but he was actually correct when he said "Trust is life."
Great reaction 💯
Ok, ok, all right... enough... my fourth reaction video I'm watching from you... you meet my taste exactly, both in the choice of films and in the reaction. Subscribe and like is pressed. Please keep it up... greetings from Germany... translated by google...😂
Haha love this!! Glad you’re enjoying them man. Cheers
If you liked him in this then line up Dead Poets Society
When you're looking for another Robin Williams drama to react to please don't overlook "Bicentennial Man" (1999).
Absolutely bril. 💜❤💙
