Moscow on the Hudson


I'm embarrassed to say that I've never seen Moscow on the Hudson. Only a few clips like the coffee shop scene and the coffee grocery store scene.

When Williams died, I went and found every one of his movies (or at least almost all of them) and watched them.

Gotta say, his persona (hyperactive, center-of-attention, always improvising) grows a *little* thin if you binge-watch 30 of his movies in a short amount of time. I guess that's why I gravitate to his dramas/dark comedies.

I seem to remember an episode of Adam Savage's podcast where they were discussing Adam's work on the movie Bicentennial Man. And Williams dropped by ILM to say hello to the model workers. Savage said something like it was obvious that Williams used his humor to cope with some inner demons.

...What's more interesting, I think I heard that podcast BEFORE Williams died.

But I can't seem to lock down which one it was.

Really wanted to put Insomnia in here, but I don't think he was enough of a focus in the movie to count it. While he's important, he's not a centerpiece of it until way late.

I think all of this is correct, although leaving Aladdin off is so hard.
