Kamilla, it's such a blessing to have had a father to lose. I'm the youngest of 3, & I don't remember my parents because my mother (may she dwell in peace) passed when I was 17 months old & my father (may he dwell in peace) about 6 months after that. My siblings & I were brought up by our maternal grandparents. So, I don't even remember any time with my parents. Life at least gave you some time with your father. 🥹💙💙💙💙💙💙

I always think of this movie as interesting because both Robin Williams and Robert De Niro had been with Belushi the night he died. Penny Marshall (who directed) was a close friend of Belushi's as well. We always think of De Niro and Scorsese being old friends and working together......but this movie was that way too. All of three had survived the 70s, kicked drugs and were making this beautiful, grown up movie together. I'm sure they all knew Julie Kavner as well, wouldn't be surprised to learn she had done guest spots on Mork & Mindy and Laverne & Shirley, or something like that. I also always have to laugh when people say De Niro is "overrated" and "always does De Niro". I think of a few specific years where he did more than one movie, and this is one of them. The same year he did Goodfellas, he did Awakenings. (and Guilty Of Suspicion). And if you look at interviews from that year, when he's just being himself, he had long shaggy hair, he looked like a 70s rock fan (which is what he is in real life!).

Dr. Oliver Sacks (the character Williams portrayed) died some years ago from a neurological condition. He recorded what he experienced until his death and described some of the psychological phenomenon that revealed a lot of fascinating workings of the brain.

@@JamesLachowsky In case you haven't read the original book (and for the benefit of other commentors who haven't), it also takes some liberties with the patient pathologies, making them uniform.

In the more recent printings of Sack's book, I believe he said that the film wasn't entirely true, but it captured the essential human truth.

I also recommend the movie At First Sight, where Val Kilmer plays a man who has been blind since childhood who receives sight at a medical procedure. Dr. Sacks also had a hand in writing that one.

I haven't seen this film on television in the US in at least 15 years. It boggles my mind because it is such an incredible story and the performances by DeNiro and Williams are fantastic (and also won awards). I'm not sure why it isn't aired regularly anymore like "Good Will Hunting" and other similar Williams/DeNiro acting grand-slams. Oliver Sacks the British physician on whom Williams' character is based seems slightly controversial as he seems to have written extensively about his patients and was beaten up a bit publicly for having done so. Wondering if that is why you seldom see the film on cable or television anymore??? Tugs my heart strings every time.

I love this movie. It's really hard for me to watch the scenes with his mother because I recently lost my mom 3 years ago. The scene that absolutely slays me and reduces me to tears is when Leonard tries to go to bed after his first day of awakening and he's too scared to go back to sleep because he thinks he may go back to being catatonic. His mother strokes his hair and has to sing him to sleep the way she probably did when he was little. UGH! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? So powerful.

The day I learned in 2014 that Robin Williams past on, I cried. And I still cry every time I remember him. He was such a kind soul. He touched me every time I saw him in a movie. RIP Robin Williams

Thanks for watching this one! One of Robin Williams' AND Robert DeNiro's best performances, in my opinion... If you like this and Rainman please consider watching Regarding Henry with Harrison Ford. It's about a man rehabilitating his body, mind, and family after being shot during a robbery. A great performance by Harrison Ford, who does not usually do roles like that and ended up knocking it out of the park.

Yes, 'Regarding Henry' is an excellent movie! 👏

You're not pathetic; you're empathetic and that's beautiful. The line Leonard's mother says early in the film about "...he just disappeared." hits me every time I see the movie now. In 1998 my mother, at 85, was diagnosed with dementia and alzheimer's; I was her caregiver for six years until she passed in October 2004. She didn't suffer a great change in personality. I was lucky to find a good senior daycare service where I would drop her off at while I was at my job and pick her up on the way home. I hadn't realized she hadn't called me by name for so long or correctly recognized me as her son that when, one day in 2004, suddenly she called "Frank" as I passed her at home, it was like a shock of electricity went through me. As I turned to respond to her the recognition was already gone and she was just staring blankly, not seeming to see me or anything in particular. I'd like to think (hope) that other "alzheimer's reality" was pleasant for her.

When Leonard watches Paula walk away it absolutely crushes me, it's like he's watching his hopes and dreams fade away and I cry every time.

One of the best movies around the subject of mental health ive ever seen.😊

I cannot imagine people waking up after all that time how hard it must be for them.

I'm an RN who has worked with this type of patient for years. I absolutely love this movie.

The actress playing Miriam whose husband divorced her in 1953 is Anne Meara. She was half of the legendary comedy duo Stiller & Meara. She was married to Jerry Stiller though she retained her name in the act. Oh yes and she is also the mother of Ben Stiller

Last year I nearly died several times and spent 3 months in the hospital and nurses are awesome. They really kept me alive and kept my spirits up. A lot of nurses are angels.

It was called the sleeping disease. Never found out how it happened. Or where it started and why it suddendly ended. Theres zero treatment. Its the biggest medical mystery of the 20th century.

Robert De Niro was nominated for Best Actor this (lost to Jeremy Irons for REVERSAL OF FORTUNE that year), and if I remember correctly, had 2 Best Picture nominees in 1 year that year (he appeared in both this and GOODFELLAS the same year).

This film can break almost anyone. Great reaction.

Pretty much all of Oliver Sacks's books (not just Awakenings) teach a LOT when it comes to this kind of thing.

Patch Adams is another movie about an unorthodox doctor played by Robin Williams.

You would absolutely love a medical drama called Lorenzo’s Oil. It’s based on a True Story . It stars Nick Nolte and Susan Sarandon . It’s brilliant .

My dad passed in 2021 from Parkinson’s disease. He was 91! It ran strongly in his family- both one of his brothers and two nephews had it, too. But their onsets and diagnosis was much earlier, in their 30’s, and they had a typical procession of symptoms that included dementia. Dad was diagnosed at almost 60! He was still mentally very sharp at the end. But in his final year his tremors were constant, movements became even more spastic and difficult, his balance poor. But in the end, it was actually the medications for the Parkinson’s that brought kidney failure. In order to do dialysis he had to stop the meds. But he was so miserable without the medications helping to control his tremors and spastic movements that he chose what little comfort they provided. It’s a pretty brutal disease (so is Alzheimer’s, which my mom is in late stage of). I love that this movie reminds us of the people inside the affected minds of these neurological diseases. As for my dad - I’m just grateful he got so many good, active years. And that he adopted me and chose to be my dad. He was a really good one. ❤

This is one of my favorite movies ever and it was really nice watching you enjoy it for your first time... caring and compassion for others in need is a beautiful thing that the world needs more of...Thank you for your heartfelt reaction :)

I think you may be confused. Penny Marshall was a woman, so no one's brother. She was the sister to Garry Marshal, who, although he was quite a famous actor/writer/director/producer in his own right, wasn't involved in The Princess Bride. He _did_ direct The Princess Diaries, so maybe that's what you were remembering. The Princess Bride was directed by Rob Reiner, another powerhouse in entertainment and son to Carl Reiner, who was himself a successful actor, stand-up comedian, director, and screenwriter as well.

It’s about time someone watched this movie. You have no idea how many times I’ve suggested this (among other fantastic films) to people and they never do it. lol Whenever I watch this movie, I kinda giggle anytime Eleanor talks because she also voices Marge Simpson in the Simpsons. 😂

The ending montage will have you in tears. Nights in Rodanthe (2008)- Romantic drama about a doctor (Richard Gere) and an inn keeper (Diane Lane), the ending will have you crying your eyes out.

Kamilla, Robin Williams acted in several films that hit really hard. Another one that is medical-related is his film, "Patch Adams". One that is visually stimulating and heavy at the same time is "What Dreams May Come". Robin showed us that he was so much more than a comedian. He was a gift. It's awesome that you reacted to this film as it's overlooked by so many. Take care and keep smiling.

A great, wild, dazzling, one of a kind experience! Dying to see someone react to that movie....and now that I see you say that hospital related stuff engages you easily, "All That Jazz" is an absolute must! (I saw "All That Jazz" back to back with the even more trippy, dazzling and disturbing "A Clockwork Orange" ....which also has some nurses and doctor stuff in it.....but that would not normally be the type of movie I'd instantly tell you to go watch! But it's a brilliant piece of art, totally mind-blowing. One of Kubrick's best. Definitely made by the same director who gave you The Shining!)

I had to retire early, and I struggle with losing my ability to do chores. Today it was very hard just to go grocery shopping. Declining health is very painful, but mostly in an emotional way. I have had kind nurses and aides throughout my life, both in and out of hospitals. Their kindness always makes a difference.

My mother lived the last 20 years of her life with Parkinson’s. It’s generally considered that there are 5 stages of Parkinson’s. 1 being the least severe and 5 the worst. For the last 5-6 years mom was about stage 4. I saw her go from being a strong vibrant woman and reduced to a shell of herself. All the while she worried about us, her children. So far none of us have shown signs of it. She’d be very relieved to know that.

The super sweet nurse is played by Julie Kavner, who now does a bunch of voices on The Simpsons. She does such a Carrie-Fishereque performance that I suspected Carrie Fisher coached her. Interestingly, Carrie Fisher is thanked in the credits, but without mention for what. Probably script doctoring, which I know she did some for other movies, but maybe, possibly, she affected miss Kavner's interpretation somehow.

If loved this one than you should try "Beautiful Mind"-2001, starring Russel crow.
