Robin Williams’ most inspirational movie scenes

Three years have gone by since Robin Williams' tragic passing, and yet his presence seems as ubiquitous as ever.

The comic actor was loved and adored the world over for his manic humour and gregarious nature, but as with so many comedy greats, the buoyant exterior that brought so much joy to so many people hid a deep-lying sadness. There was always a melancholy behind the mirth. Perhaps it was this aspect of a deeply emotional and sensitive man that imbued so many of his acting roles with a moving pathos. No matter how slapstick or silly the character, Williams was able to portray a depth and poignancy that eludes so many others. Here's an unashamedly sentimental look at some of his most inspirational movie moments... Good Will Hunting (1998) - "Your move, chief..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3w0Fq2UH-pQ The Birdcage (1996) - "What a pain in the ass you are..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5a7eGUDTCa4 Dead Poets Society (1989) - "Words and ideas can change the world..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VUV2Yl8gsI Jack (1996) - "Please, don't worry so much..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9Kczkj15qM Aladdin (1992) - "Tell her the truth..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xMlgdCpLtw If you or someone you know is feeling down, CALM can help.
