Robin Williams wasn't meant to fall with the soup in the kitchen, which to me, makes it even funnier seeing Hank Azaria crying, but probably trying so hard not to die laughing. Also, Hank Azaria is such an amazing actor. He can do so many different voices and is so diverse in his character portrayals.

I was checking to see if anybody had already posted this little factoid because it's so great.😂 And yes, Hank Azaria was crying to hide his laughter. That's also why Val started chugging out of the bottle. I've always been SO GLAD they left that blooper in the film even though Robin is obviously laughing because goddamn if it isn't a perfect summary of the absolute chaos going on at the time!

Speaking about Nathan's and Robin's relationship when this was made Nathan wasn't out of the closet yet and Oprah during an interview was really pushing to get Nathan to come out, Robin saw this and immediately jumped in making a joke out of it taking the attention off Nathan. Nathan has gone on saying that was one of the kindest things ever and he is forever appreciative of it!

One of the kindest stories I found out after the Williams passed was during the press tour for the film Nathan Lane and Robin Williams would do multiple interviews and one in particular asked questions in regards of Nathan's sexuality. It was a open secret that he was gay in the Theater community but wasn't comfortable to be out in the mainstream media and didn't want to forced to do that during an interview. Robin sensing this as the question was asked made a few impressions and talked about how proud he was to represent the gay community in a film that pushes against the status quo and jokes about the stereotypes and that Nathan is the real scene stealer. Nathan since said,"Robin, is the kindest, understanding and greatest people he's ever met oh and he's an iconic actor too!!!"

I'm in complete agreement about Val's "mom" (Chrstine Baranski). If it was important to her she would have made more of an effort. Even when Armand first approaches her she has no idea how old Val is. Just shows how much more of a mom Albert was. "I'm very maternal and Albert's practically a breast." is one of my favorite lines.

Terrific 90s movie that was controversial at the time. If you want to see Nathan Lane play the “straight” man, the 2005 musical version based on the stage play of Mel Brooks’ The Producers is highly underrated. It has some scenes that still get me laughing even to this day. Or you can watch the 1968 version, which isn’t a musical, but Gene Wilder and Zero Mostel are great in it. The newer musical has more jokes and one liners.

Nathan Lane was the definition of “Yas Queen” in this film and loved him ever since. This film always felt like the Gay “Guess whose coming to dinner” and I love that I also like that they show that the politician parents actually get along with Albert and the others without knowing that they’re gay, showing that it’s totally a ridiculous concept to hate on people for being different.

Robin Williams was originally supposed to play Albert. He requested to play Armand, because he thought he wouldn't be convincing enough as Albert. Nathan Lane, who played Albert was Timon from The Lion King, and was a big musical theater actor. He was so, so good to be able to keep up with Robin Williams in any scene. Hank Azaria (Agador) was also truly amazing, since he was able to keep his composure and delivered his lines with perfect comedic timing. The whole cast was a chef's kiss.

Albert vs "Mom": You're beginning to understand what the LGBTQ+ community know to be family, especially when teenagers are thrown out of their parents' house for coming out as Gay. This film had so many moments: Armond's declaration of love to Albert; the fiancee's instant connection to Albert; Albert's desparate, if doomed, attempts to be Butch out of love for his son...All these made me verklempt... and proud. It's not often that Robin Williams is upstaged, but Nathan Lane did it. What's ironic is that when this film was released, Nathan wasn't out, yet, but their chemistry and fondness for each other was such that, when doing the promotion circuit for the film, Robin was willing and able to deflect questions about Nathan's sexuality.

Their real life chemistry was great too! Nathan is gay, and robin protected him during interviews about the movie… it was heartwarming

Nathan Lane, who played Albert, was already a successful stage actor but hadn’t broken into film when they were casting the movie. So the studio wanted an actor with a bigger name among moviegoers. But Robin Williams insisted that Lane get the part. The thing was that Nathan Lane is gay, but wasn’t out yet. During the promotional tour, Williams and Lane appeared on Oprah. She started to ask Lane a question that was basically going to out him on national TV, which could have ruined his career at that point. But Williams interrupted and deflected the question, essentially saving Lane from the situation. Lane, who’s now a major star, says that he was so grateful to Williams, and was devastated when Williams passed away.

The pairing of Robin & Nathan is brilliant. With Robin in a film most of the cast need to be able to give Robin space to "run". but Nathan steps in and makes the film like a Abbot & Costello show, they complement each other's comic style beautifully.

Nathan Lane is truly an amazing actor, long time Broadway performer, voice of Timon in Lion King, and you guys would love him in The Producers (2005). Will Ferrell and Matthew Broderick are in Producers too. Check it out.

The dynamic between Gene Hackman and Nathan Lane is the my favorite part of the movie. Hackman, a moderate right-winger, playing a republican patriarch, and Lane, a gay Broadway star, playing a much sillier gay man than he is. Williams doesn't steal the show in this one.

I saw both Robin and Nathan interviewed about this film, Robin knew this was Nathan’s big break so he decided to play it straight and just let Nathan take centre stage, it shows what a generous spirit Robin was, he just let Nathan shine and boy did he shine.

Great pick guys! Loved your reactions to this - so wholesome! Can I recommend 'World's Greatest Dad' as another amazing Robin Williams performance. Also, for some other hilarious classic gay comedies from this era, check out 'In and Out' starring Kevin Kline, and 'To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything' starring Patrick Swayze and Wesley Snipes (with a Robin Williams cameo!) You're knocking it out of the park digging out these classics.

Nathan Lane wasn’t out of the closet yet when they made the movie and there is a video of Oprah interviewing Nathan and Robin and she asked Nathan how he got so good at the “girly” stuff and Robin swooped on and started joking around to take the focus off Nathan. They also made a movie of the play in the 70’s

Nathan Lane is a national treasure. I got see him on Broadway in the Addams Family when he played Gomez Addams. He’s better known for his pair up with Matthew Broderick on Broadway and in the movie The Producers. Watch that movie, but watch the original one with Gene Wilder and Zero Mostel first. Nathan Lane was in the first two seasons of Only Murders in the Building. Don’t know if he makes an appearance in season 3.
