Still missing Robin very much. I don't think he ever did a performa:nce that I didn't love. He was a great talent and we were very lucky to have witnessed his all different characters over the years. A true gem! ❤️
This might be the one moment in Hollywood history that the runner-up's were happy they lost. He was the hero we didn't deserve. He's the only person everybody everywhere unanimously loved.
Robin was not just a zany guy. He was erudite, cosmopolitan, and philosophical. A true mensch. He was truly humble and full of gratitude. His embrace of Billy Crystal was a joyous recognition of brotherhood. Well deserved.
@@jamesquince7536 And his love for brother Christopher Reeve's should be written as a book on brotherhood too. A truly inspirational human being. Sadly missed.
“I forgot to thank my mother, I know even my therapist was like “GET OUT!” She would ask me “How’s the award? I gave birth to you but how’s the award?” ~Robin Williams
The next day, when Robin showed up on the set of Patch Adams, there was a surprise performance by the Glide Memorial choir. It was amazing. Robin so much deserved the highest honor of his profession, and I'll tell you how much he appreciated everyone who worked on his films. He wasnt like other actors in the biz, stand-offish or self-affected, he'd come up to a grip or a security guard, and ask, "How's it going Bob?" and know everyone by name and he made working on his films such an enjoyable and unforgettable experience. In fact, that day he showed up a little late after coming home to the bay area from the Oscars back to the set on the university of Cal-Berkeley, and at lunch he set his Oscar down in front of him. We were all overjoyed for him. I congratulated him and looked at the statue and said, "Can I hold it?" This was the fourth Robin Williams' film I had the pleasure of working on, so he just smiled and handed it to me. Wow! Talk about heavy. That thing weighed like 25 pounds. I handed it back to him and said, "Thanks Robin. Its about time they gave you one of these." He was on cloud nine that day. I think of him often and send Love to his amazing Soul. He was sui generis - absolutely one of a kind. The world needs more of his sense of humor and generosity (he was involved in numerous charities) and I hope he is at peace on the other side, because I know from conversations he certainly was bothered by the conditions and circumstances of the larger world around us. He gave his heart and soul to this world, and by the amount of appreciation his fans still give him, it was because he WASN'T 'acting' he truly enjoyed making people laugh. He was a magnificent example of charity and caring. I miss him.
What a beautiful comment that truly shows that the legend is alive and well in our hearts...thank you so much for sharing your heart. Trailblazers/prophets/geniuses like Robin Williams are beyond the limits of space. We are blessed to have witnessed this man's light, glory and completely selfless compassion.
I cried also when he passed and I didn’t even know the guy. You can see the way he laughed about other peoples jokes, that he was suffering from depression. When he laughed it was a explosion of emotion. I always knew he was special. Thank you for this comment. This was very insightful. Robin is still my favorite comedian. ❤️
Steve Hixson , I feel exactly the same way Mr. Steve. I also felt the same way when Spike Lee won his own Oscar & Spike got to embrace his buddy Samuel L. Jackson.
So glad Billy Crystal was on stage to hold Robin afterward. Hugs are nice but being held by one who is truly unselfishly happy for you is a sense for the soul to rejoice in. Robin deserved such joy.
Well said and to put it another way a lot of times you see the phony smiles and hugs on these award shows but to see the glowing pride from bill crystal and his beaming smile over his best friend winning the Oscar was just so genuine that you have to be made of stone not to feel so joyous for both men
He was on Watch What Happens Live tonight and mentioned the moment of hugging Robin as being his favourite, most special Oscar moment. I specifically came on you UA-cam to look for this clip because Billy mentioned it. Such a beautiful moment.
So beautifully put! I also loved how he held his hand to his heart when people cheered, and belted out that high-pitched belly laugh of his when he was truly tickled by someone or something.
No words can describe him. He was beyond talented. I actually cried when he passed. It was liked loosing a friend. The world is less bright without this shining star. R.I.P. Robin and thank you for sharing yourself with us.
I have major depression and when he committed suicide, I lost all hope. If the funniest man in the world couldn’t deal with it, none of us can and we’re all fucked.
@@wickedwonka9155 I am so sorry. I have a nephew who has struggled daily since he was 17. He's now 45. His younger brother took his own life. My sister says it's a gene that causes the suicidal tendency. Both parents have to pass it down. I have a great nephew from my brothers daughter who has Alpha 1. Again, both parents have to pass it down. It's sad what we can give our children. I hope you are getting the help you need and I really am sorry you struggle.
There will never be anyone in the same stratosphere as Robin Williams but at least we have his work to enjoy for generations to come. May he rest in peace for eternity.
Billy Crystal was on Watch What Happens Live tonight and mentioned this moment of him and Robin hugging as his favourite moment of the Oscars. Such a talent. He will forever be missed.
I just happened to stumble on this one. I have tears in my eyes. I grew on Robin Williams and he made me laugh every time. Miss you Mr Robin Williams - your work is done here.
A cracking bloke, loved his stand up comedy loved his films, the first time I watched Good Morning Vietnam my ribs hurt, a sadly missed genius and a good bloke. The world is a sadder place without him 😔
I never realized how brilliant robin actually was until I re watched Mrs doubtfire. He was so good in that film, among others, that when you see him in the court room at the end , you know the comedy ends and the drama begins. You see him in a whole different light. Such an amazing actor.
Rich, I read an article somewhere that said that with all the ad-libbing he did on set for Mrs. Doubtfire, the studio could have released a PG-13, an NC-17, and a rated R version separately if they had wanted to. I'd pay to see the R one.
A 1-derful, incomparable Oscar moment, one of the most popular wins of all time, if not the most popular; by the thunderous ovation it seems everybody, including his competition wanted him to receive the recognition. The way he reacted, so full of real emotion, and the hug with Billy, so sincere and beautiful. God Bless You Robin !!!
It'll Never Happen Now That He's Gone but, When Mel Blanc died in July '89, I had hoped Robin Would do A Biopic of him He was The ONE person (Apart From Mel Blanc Himself), who could possibly have Done All The Voices.
Yes. Robin Williams died and none of us ever knew what he did, all because we couldn't recognize him for it. He won four Grammys, an Emmy, and Oscar, and a bunch of other awards and you really think he never got the recognition he deserved? You are very strange.
Robin was so good in this role. The Fisher King. Good.Morning Vietnam. Etc. He was also the funniest man I've ever seen. It's still hard to believe he is dead. ..Thanks for this post; it brought back some great memories.
I am so, so glad they got Billy Crystal's reaction on camera. This award was overdue, but it wasn't a consolation prize either - that was definitely one of his best performances.
Ah Robin so sweet, so missed, so loved. What I love most about this besides the fact he won, if you listen to the audience when they announce the first 4 and then listen when they announce Robin the whole place erupts, he was truly loved by all, I pray you found peace 😇
Yes. I cried too. Robin was a genius. There were several roles for which he should have won an Oscar. He was extraordinary. Even though he had private struggles, he shone a light to the world with warmth, compassion, and best of all......laughter. He gave us all laughter, and so much joy. Even now we smile when we think of Robin. We loved him, and will do so always. Do you think, at the end, he knew that?
Still hard to believe that it has been, just over 5 years has passed . I have watched every movie Robin was in countless times. We all have our own favorite movie. Robin Williams is , was and always will be the greatest gift that graced this Earth. I never had the opportunity to meet Robin,but I think we all new him. From his first roll till his last, Robin had us all laughing with tears rolling down our cheeks. I personally think they should make an award in his honor. The Robin Williams comedy award or something along those lines. It saddens me to think that the next generation will never get to see his brilliance,as we did. Thank you Robin, Thank you.
R.I.P. Robin Williams is a true comedic legend! I felt like a huge piece of me was taken away when he died. His movies and talent were inspiring. He will be missed for many years and years to come. Thanks for the memories!
Me too Nita. I can honestly say that this is one celebrity that I miss having around. His genius made him, in my opinion, the funniest man I have ever seen. I had a personal interaction with him many, many years ago and he was genuine and just had a light to his eyes that made the room brighter. R.I.P, Robin.
Me too people......i enjoy the moment when he gets the oscar (very well deserved as outstandig professional actor) but i broke in tears when i saw the hug between him and Billy (the real friendship is like a wonderful brotherhood and never ends man!).....God bless his soul (r.i.p. great Robin) !! God bless Billy!! :)
That just left tears in my eyes. Robins emotion was so real but the loveliest moment was seeing billy crystal hug his old friend at the end. Thank u robin do so many wonderful memories
Robin Williams' performance in "Good Will Hunting" was what life is. People are precious, damaged and sustained by hope when the pain of life has almost conquered them. What a performance he gave.
Of course he was celeb and I’m just a normal every day guy and never got to meet him but I grew up on him and his death still hits me hard to this day.
I love how the Oscars showed actual clips from movies back then, rather than trailers. Was so happy to view Robin Williams again -- .always cracking jokes at 90 miles an hour! And I liked Billy Crystal talking about Comic Relief. Thanks for posting this!
After learning of Robin's death I remember how I watched this movie and how he was able to dig deep down into his soul and give such an unbelievable performance. It was then I realised that my initial thoughts about him in this movie were correct. When at times you see him poor it all out and really bare all for everyone to see. He wasn't acting. It was real life to him.
For Robin Williams to win this award and appreciate the significance of it, one has to see all the other performances of the actors he was up against. I absolutely loved all of their performances and was pleased Robin won, but boy howdy did Robert, Greg, Burt, and Anthony lay it out there! Billy is such a class act. Gawd Mira is beautiful and talented. Epic clip. Thank you for sharing it.
And then Jack Nickolson said to him, while holding his latest award, 'You know, Robbie, now I've got one for every decade'. True story, as told by Robin Williams.
I miss his shtick, comic brilliance, his EVERYTHING public. So sad that he was so sad deep down. Rest in peace Robin and THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for all of your infinite laughs, brilliance, incredible intelligence and all else that made you the genius that you were. Baruch Dayan Haemet
You know all u good people around the world...…..Robin maybe gone and we all shed tears for that....BUT we are all so lucky to be around and lived with the greatest talent of our lives...TY robin for touching all of our Heart and Souls.....!!
He was magnificent and heart breaking in The Fisher King. You just wanted to leap in to the screen and hug him. No other actor could have provoked that reaction.
I like this because he looks so happy here. I worked on a film with him and spent a day or day and a half with him on the set, in a couple New York locations and he was the most depressed human being I've ever seen in my life.
The world is a lesser place without Robin. Thank you and RIP.
It sure is 😢
The pride on Billy Crystal's face was like Robin was his little brother winning that Oscar. It was well-deserved. What a legend! What a man!
So true.
You know,I thought Crystal truly showed pride in his friend.their embrace was so genuine
And thank you Billy, I wouldn't make it without you hosting the Oscars this year 😉
Still missing Robin very much. I don't think he ever did a performa:nce that I didn't love. He was a great talent and we were very lucky to have witnessed his all different characters over the years. A true gem! ❤️
@@ms70sky They were true brothers. I agree -- very touching.
The world misses you Mr. Williams.
It's been seven years and I still have tears in my eyes.
Even grateful in his award. What a terrific human being. Robin you are so missed.
when you get a huge applause from everybody before being announced winner you know you did amazing.
This might be the one moment in Hollywood history that the runner-up's were happy they lost. He was the hero we didn't deserve. He's the only person everybody everywhere unanimously loved.

What a beautiful, heart felt tribute to your friend. The world is a better place for him having been here.
Beautifully shared...sounds like you did know him and he sounds just like I hoped he would be in quiet moments out of the spotlight.
Yes, but it was Best Supporting Actor. Not the highest.
I cried also when he passed and I didn’t even know the guy.
You can see the way he laughed about other peoples jokes, that he was suffering from depression. When he laughed it was a explosion of emotion. I always knew he was special. Thank you for this comment. This was very insightful.
Robin is still my favorite comedian. ❤️
That proud look on Billy Crystals face warms my heart so much.
Stevie Blunder it's so beautiful when people can be proud of one another.

Is it just me or was Billy making the kind of face that we only make when we're fighting the urge to cry.
Look how genuinely proud and happy Billy Crystal is for his best buddy. R.I.P Robin Williams - GENIUS!

If only Robin knew how much we loved him!
Sometimes the pain is so great even love cannot overcome
Depression when untreated takes away a life just like any other serious disease.
@@markwellman4530 Did he not get treated? All those years? I think it was dementia that was the hard part.
@Daniel Aplet He had Parkinson's. He was losing his mind and that was the one thing he valued the most.
@Daniel Christian try having an illness that messes with you mind,
I wish Robin were alive to bring us his humor in these cheerless times.
He needed cheering in his last days. He will be remembered fondly by everyone he touched!
He is immortal in a sense. You can watch his movies, stand up, and interviews any time you want.
Totally agree. I'm almost pissed at him for doing what he did.
They would have cancelled him for whatever BS reason.
You will find joy.
And fast.
How proud was Billy Crystal when Robin won? That was truly a friend's embrace at the end.
A true friend is happy and celebrates with you when you win the greatest award.

Robert MacDuffie yup..to some he was magical..he was brilliant..his humanitarian work was both these things.

And then Jack Nickolson said to him, while holding his latest award, 'You know, Robbie, now I've got one for every decade'. True story, as told by Robin Williams.

Miss him so very much 😔 and just love that happy & proud look on Billy's face seeing his buddy won 👍
Anthony Hopkins is such a nice man. His expressions didn't change at all when he lost. He was smiling throughout.
I miss his shtick, comic brilliance, his EVERYTHING public. So sad that he was so sad deep down. Rest in peace Robin and THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for all of your infinite laughs, brilliance, incredible intelligence and all else that made you the genius that you were.

He really did forget to thank his mother....... Gone but never forgotten - RIP Robin.
You know all u good people around the world...…..Robin maybe gone and we all shed tears for that....BUT we are all so lucky to be around and lived with the greatest talent of our lives...TY robin for touching all of our Heart and Souls.....!!
Robin Williams was without a doubt the most outstanding comedian and actor and husband and humanitarian of my life
I watch this a few times each year. Goodness, how I miss you, Captain.
It will be six years tomorrow and I still miss him. If there is a Heaven, and I’m lucky enough to go there, I can watch his stand up for eternity.
If heaven doesn't have Robin Williams stand-up, it's not worth going.
I miss Robin Williams. I wish him peace.
Isn't it amazing how some one you've never met wiggles his way into your heart and just stays there forever? Love this man always.
The heartbreaking tragedy that he could not find or hold on to the joy in life that he brought to so many others.
RIP Mr. Williams, you were the best.
One of his best performances no doubt. I really miss him ❤️
Loved Robin in all his acting roles. Good morning Viet Nam one of my favorites. WE LOVED YOU ROBIN. YOUR MISSED. GLO

Shhh. Don't ruin the illusion.
This was a true beloved day. It will goes down in one of the Greatest performances ever.
my both fav Men Robin and billy u cant be more proud Miss u RW rip
Thank YOU Robin . Very seldom can a person make us laugh and cry the same time. You are loved and you are
missed. RIP.
He totally deserved the honor. He stole the show with his role in this movie.
He earned it years before. He was finally getting recognized for his acting chops.
He was magnificent and heart breaking in The Fisher King. You just wanted to leap in to the screen and hug him. No other actor could have provoked that reaction.
Once in a lifetime actor, comedian and performer. There's only one Robin Williams. We miss and love you Robin.
that hug between billy & robin @ the end is the best.
I like this because he looks so happy here. I worked on a film with him and spent a day or day and a half with him on the set, in a couple New York locations and he was the most depressed human being I've ever seen in my life.
Really? That makes me sad...who knows what a person is Going through in the person on the lives… Can you say a little more about it?
