There are sure to be several video tributes to Robin Williams that appear online today and for the next several days following the tragic news of his death yesterday and after watching a couple already, the one below from frequent video essayist Nelson Carvajal is one I consider worth watching. It covers all the expected territory with a great opening choice that both captures the magic of Williams’ work as well as a subtle hint of melancholy in a scene from Mrs. Doubtfire.
From there virtually all of Williams’ career in movies is covered from his work in Good Morning, Vietnam, One Hour Photo, Insomnia, Awakenings, Jumanji, Dead Poet’s Society, Good Will Hunting and, obviously, as the voice of the genie in Aladdin.
Watch below.
