Robin Williams is widely regarded as one of the best comedy actors in the history of Hollywood. He was also one of the first actors to have his own stand-up comedy show.
The irony is that while Robin made us laugh on a daily basis, he was unable to make himself laugh. One of the best comedians of all-time died in depression.
Williams committed suicide, and the accepted premise was that he died because of depression. However, his widow said that the cause of his death was a rare brain disease called Lewy body dementia. It is that condition that caused him to commit suicide.
With that being said, this documentary takes a look at the lengthy life of Robin Williams, one of the best comedians of all-time. From his humble beginnings in Hollywood, up to his glory days.
