Cruel irony


I've watched this movie last night, the day Robin Williams died, and i find ironic that one of the last things his character says in the movie is: "On my tombstone it 'll say: Henry Altman 1951-2014. I never knew until now: it's not the dates that matters it's the dash." It was William's last film to be released during his lifetime. R.I.P., sir, and thanks for the fun, the joy, but also the humanity you and the characters you played so well left behind.

Yeah the fact that Robin Williams died recently made this movie even sadder.

What's black and white and read all over? My profile.

Agreed. I got a copy in the mail from Netflix the day he died, or the day after. I'd completely forgotten it was at the top of my queue. Then I watched it. Chills down my spine.

the dates are HIS real-life dates; you think maybe he had some 'input' re this line? duh? and don't tell me he didn't 'know'; this film did NOT give him 'the idea' ,,, how idiotic!
