“I met Robin Williams a few occasions in the course of the filming of Demise to Smoochy. I had my youngsters in as extras, however my youngest daughter wasn’t feeling effectively at some point, and so they had her sit out of filming within the daycare space. Robin Williams got here by and noticed her sitting alone and determined to take a seat together with her and play playing cards for just a few hours.”
“Just a few days earlier than the shoot began, she had watched Jumanji, so the film and Robin Williams have been all she had talked about. On the finish of the primary day on set, we have been standing in line, ready to submit paperwork, when Robin Williams began strolling up and thanking the entire households for popping out. When he got here as much as us, my daughter stated to him, ‘You already know what my favourite film is?’ Robin Williams bent right down to her stage, and in a infantile voice, requested ‘What?’ She threw her arms out and yelled ‘Jumanji!‘ He began laughing and hugged and thanked her. It was simply such a humorous factor.
I suppose he remembered her, as a result of he later spent that point together with her enjoying playing cards, and when he was doing a question-and-answer with the youngsters, he joked together with her. He was implausible on set. He would stroll as much as folks and simply chat with them. He by no means hid from anybody, such as you hear different actors do. Final yr, I had requested my daughter in regards to the film, and he or she talked about extra interactions that she had with him. No surprise he was her favourite actor. Such a great man. He introduced a lot pleasure to the world.”
