I've read several stories about him, about his roles.
The whole planet has forgotten about the movie 'Awakenings'...Easily his best role.
(Also the best acting Robert DeNiro ever did)
in addition to his more well known Moscow on the Hudson (1984), the aforementioned Awakenings (1990) and The Fisher King (1991) (Best Actor Oscar nomination) there are SO many under-rated Robin Williams movies like The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988) (where he is hilarious in the uncredited roll of King of the Moon), Cadillac Man (could have had an Oscar nomination as the sleazy Joey O'Brien), Jumanji (1995), Flubber (1997), Patch Adams (1998) and One Hour Photo (2002). critics threw rocks at Jakob the Liar (1999) (he even got a Golden Raspberry Worst Actor nomination) BUT I thought it too was well acted
the man will definitely be missed
