That’s why at certain parts of his career, Robin was finding himself acting in roles that didn’t use his talents effectively. But, when you become an extremely popular actor in the public’s eye, Hollywood might over time begin to believe they can harness that popularity and work to control it. Oh sure, he had plenty of great films come his way, and many of those movies were no doubt improved by his presence. But while he proved himself time and again to be a master at so many different things, it unfortunately made it difficult to find the right kinds of roles for him. Though he could be completely bombastic and off-the-wall, he still had the ability to reign himself in and give a touching subtle performance once in a while something that indeed helped him win an Oscar for his work in Good Will Hunting (1997). A master comedian and a genius at improvisation, he also managed to carve out a niche as a well respected actor in both comedy and drama. Robin Williams was a rare talent in our lives.
