Robin Williams - RIP and Thank You.
Writing this as I have learned that Robin Williams died today. I know most people do not consider this a great or even good movie but I loved it. Its one of my favorite movies and I thought the two male leads, Russell and Williams, were fantastic. Like the story and the ending. I also love football, and I think the whole idea of a high school team wanting to relive their 'glory' years is authentic.
I find that getting old sucks. Everyday you lose someone else. If not a family member then a star like Robin Williams whom you watched as a young person and felt like you grew up with. It's strange, but "the tears of a clown" is a fact. So many of the people that make us laugh and escape our sadness are actually sad themselves. I hope Robin Williams now has peace and has escaped the pain in this life. And I hope God enjoys a good laugh.
