Loving Mrs Doubtfire | First Time Watching | Movie Reaction

[@SirPaladin]

During production the studio suggested the parents get back together at the end of the movie. both Robin WIlliams & Sally Field objected saying it would give false hope to any kids watching with divorced parents. They reworked it, added that ending speech and the movie is much greater for it.

as a child of divorce, that ending scene with Mrs. Doubtfire reading the letter from the little girl always makes me tear up. this movie is such a timeless classic and I enjoy it just as much now as an adult as I did as a child ❤️

This is hands-down one of my favorite movies. Watching it now, after Robin Williams passed away, it’s just very bitter sweet. I always choke up with his words “You’re going to be alright, poppet. Bye-Bye.” 💔

[@k1productions87]

Being a child of divorced parents, this movie should have hit me a lot harder than it did. I still love and adore it, I am just surprised it doesn't break me, as by all rights it should. But I'll consider that a good thing, so I am not distracted away from Robin Williams' amazing performance. It may also be the fact that I was never kept from either my mom nor my dad. They would argue over everything... except me. I was always the one constant they always agreed upon, and I feel absolutely grateful for that. It always breaks my heart when divorced parents use their children against each other. Fortunately in this film, Miranda never quite went that route.

[@WanderingRoe]

The ending of this movie was spot-on, I’m glad they took the advice of Robin Williams and Sally Fields. My parents divorced when I was 8 and I think it made a lot of sense to be honest and acknowledge that most divorced couples don’t get back together but it doesn’t mean your life is over. Loved this reaction - not sure how I missed it but I’m glad I found it 👍

She won the Oscar for makeup effects that year, too. She was also responsible for the makeup effects in the movie Beetlejuice.

RIP national treasure Robin Williams. This is easily one of his best, but he was also great in Good Will Hunting, Good Morning Vietnam, Aladdin, Dead Poets Society, The Fisher King, Awakenings, What Dreams May Come, Hook, and Insomnia. Some of those are also comedies (Williams got his start as a stand-up comic and then also for his work playing a goofy alien in the TV show Mork and Mindy), but most are actually dramas. Turns out he was an extremely talented dramatic actor, as well, which I think you can see a bit of in this film. Sadly, he ended up taking his own life, after struggling with depression for a long time. Sally Field is so cute I like her in this. She got her start in the 60s as "Gidget." Though one of my favorite roles of hers is in Forrest Gump which I know you've already seen. Pierce Brosnan is probably best known for playing James Bond for many years before the role was taken over by Daniel Craig. The youngest girl, Mara Wilson, stars in my favorite adaptation of a Roald Dahl Book, Matilda, but she hasn't acted much since growing up. Might be retired.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.

[@GrinningDwarf]

The genius of Mrs. Doubtfire is that there are no real villains. There are people with conflicting goals that creates tension, but there are no 'bad guys.' They could have easily made the mom or the boyfriend out to be horrible people that you wanted to see lose. The closest they came, IMHO, is when the boyfriend told another person that Daniel was a loser. When I saw this in the theater, I said, "Okay. NOW he's going to show his true colors...but the writers didn't take him that way. I thought the lack of a true villain made it a much better story.

Robin Williams shaped my childhood. I miss him so much. I cried so much when he died. Such a horrible tragedy. But we’ll always have his films/stand ups/interviews to look back on and treasure. He was an incredibly kind and compassionate man in real life.

[@CaptainAmercia]

One of my favourite movies as a kid and of course alot of these jokes went over my head lol One of the best things about watching movies again where you're older is realizing how much adult humour is in so many films. Stuart is played by Irish actor Pierce Brosnan who also played 007 in four James Bond films. Natalie the youngest daughter is played by Mara Wilson who was in Matilda from 1996 another fun film that has a special place in many peoples hearts. Miranda is played by Sally Field who also played Mrs. Gump in Forrest Gump which released a year after Mrs Doubtfire, imagine see was in and out of playing both characters filming back to back. Lydia Hillard the oldest Daughter is played Lisa Jakub who also acted in Independence Day. 3:19 the short guy could be Danny Devito who also stars in alot of movies and shows, he's awesome. Chris Columbus who directed Mrs Doubtfire also has a bunch of other movies such as Home Alone and Home Alone 2. He also directed the first two Harry Potter films as well but with once you get into Harry Potter there's no turning back lol

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Good info thanks. Yeah, Love Chris Columbus

[@bigdoubleu117]

She may not have been the "bad guy" in the begining, but what absolutely made her the bad guy was doing things like: Dropping the kids off an hour late and arriving to pick them up an hour early, which cuts his time with his kids on his time by 2 hours. And there's really not anything he could do about that.

This movie is a not-so-subtle MRA movie. 😉 Fun Fact: During the scene when Mrs. Sellner comes to inspect Daniel's apartment and Daniel/Mrs. Doubtfire is serving her tea, the icing on his/her face is melting off. This was not intentional. The heat from the set lights melted the icing on his face and Robin Williams improvised the bulk of that scene. Bonus Fact: According to one biography, Robin Williams decided to test out the believability of his Mrs. Doubtfire character during filming by going as Mrs. Doubtfire into an adult bookstore and making a purchase. He was able to do so without being recognized.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Love it

[@spacemonkeyentertainment6413]

I mean, there is an active vocal minority that tries to decry this movie as 'transphobic' and obviously to them Robin Williams' character is an 'irresponsible manchild' (when talking about how he should have no rights to his children, duh). Those are the times we live in...

I'll tell you a bittersweet personal anecdote about this movie: I was 13 or so when I saw this in theaters with my family and best friend after I had just competed (and lost) in a piano competition. Processing all those emotions during this movie came out a certain kinda way, and this movie made me experience for the first time in my life -- crying from laughter. Many years later, when I got the news that Robin Williams had passed away (my parents texted me the news while I was still lying in bed in my bachelor pad), it was the only time thus far that I got misty-eyed because a celebrity died. Man, Robin Williams was the best. He "got me" on both ends of the comedy/drama spectrum. May he rest in peace.

Fun Robin Williams Fact - His early career, starting in improv and stand up would see him land a role in Happy Days, from which the spin off 'Mork and Mindy was born. Recorded on stage, Robin Williams and the director had an interesting relationship to say the least, as his improv background and incredibly creative mind was constantly deviating from the script, but it was also comedy gold. Television programs in those days were filmed using three cameras. These were huge pieces of equipment and the industry standard was that they were static, one focused on one actor's face, another on the second actor's face, and a third covering a wide shot, with all three feeds then being cut together post production. Early in filming, Robin launched into several minutes of improv, moving all over the stage as he did and it was genius, hilarious, the director loved it. When he eventually yelled cut, he went up to one of the cameramen and said 'Tell me you got that', to which the reply came 'He didn't come by here'. So upset was the director, he decided this couldn't continue and promptly arranged for a fourth camera, whose sole job it was to follow Robin and film everything he did so not a single moment was lost. Soon after this camera setup became standard and has been used to this day to record tv programs. All because of Robin Williams.

@@k1productions87 It's true Robin Williams had suffered on & off with depression, but depression wasn't the reason for him taking his life. He had been diagnosed with a serious illness, one that was going to rob him of his independence, and eventually his life. He decided to skip all the suffering, and go out before the loss of dignity & basic function. The way he saw it, he had already lived a full life, done all the things he wanted to do, his quality of life was going to go downhill, and he was ready to go. You mentioned his daughter & how this would affect her; she actually had to make statements & address all the comments like yours, where people were upset, and calling Robin, selfish. She very articulately shared her thoughts and feelings, about this, and they were the complete opposite of yours. She thought it incredibly selfish, of everyone else, to ask someone suffering so greatly, to live longer, just for their own comfort & selfish reasons. If you'd like to read her exact words, the letter can be found online. Me personally, would I want a world where Robin Williams is still alive? Sure.

I remember this being one of the few movies that had my dad wiping tears of laughter out of his eyes right there in the theater....such a good film, it was a joy to revisit it. We got tornadoed bout a week and a half ago and haven't been able to actually go anywhere or do anything (except clean up, but the upper part of the city was still swarming with Mennonites as of Thursday, and they got it covered) so since the power came back on, I've been sitting here and bingewatching all my faves. Here's a couple I didn't see on your list....and no, none of them are Dances With Wolves...1.) Titanic. That one DOES clock in at over 3 hours though. But it goes fast. Very, very fast. 2.) Galaxy Quest - I have never laughed so hard 3.) Apollo 13 - Reunites Tom Hanks with Gary Sinise or however his name is spelled. Lieutenant Dan. Him. 4.) Men in Black - Tommy Lee Jones deadpanning his way through Will Smith's shenanigans. I think there's 3? I've only seen the first two and they are equally good. 5.) Hunger Games - There's 4. They were marketed as YA (young adult) movies for teenyboppers looking for the next Strong and Talented Teen Girl In Love Triangle to start out with, which caused them to be dismissed almost off-hand by an adult audience...and then the critics reviews started coming in with "hey, these movies are actually way deeper and hard hitting than we thought they would be, holy crap" And finally 6.) Tucker and Dale vs Evil. Gloriously funny....and bloody... And I WOULD say Twister, but that would just lead to me screeching in the comment section about how everything the characters in that movie do is a great way to commit suicide.....good hollywood-ing though.

@@AwesomeUSMovies They do...they had to condense the storyline, naturally, so certain elements were changed or omitted (and the violence was toned down a few notches...I mean they're still going around killing kids and blowing people up) but overall they're very faithful to the books and I give 'em 8.5/10 I only have one major quibble about the first movie, but I'll hold onto it til when/if you watch the movie.

[@Floridad25]

@@AwesomeUSMovies Oh! Oh! Let me to spam your watch list (how long is it now?) I forgot three, and all of em are DOOZIES. Coincidentally, they're all WW2 movies...lemme see if i can vague-synopsis without spoiling.... 1.) Schindler's List: DO NOT START WITH THIS ONE, IT WILL EAT YOU ALIVE. A Holocaust film also directed by Steven Spielberg, and often referred to as one of the top three best films of all time. This is the grandaddy of All The Feels. (and I have so many, many stories about that one. All of 'em, actually...) This is one of those very few films that I believe everyone should see at least once in their lifetime because the story MUST be told. Prepare to be gutted The ending is bittersweet. . 2.) Hacksaw Ridge: Story about a medic in the Pacific front. Start with this one. I won't deny that the battle scenes are gory because someone let Mel Gibson into the director's chair and he did a FANTASTIC job presenting the story. But...he has this thing for carnage..Blood, severed limbs, brains and rats the size of housecats all over the goddamn place but that's the way it WAS. Hope you aren't squeamish about that kind of thing. Overall mood: Inspiring! 3:) The Tuskegee Airmen (the one with Lawrence Fishborne in it, not "Red Tails" as that's an entirely different movie.) Story about the first Black fighter squad and the racist hell they had to go through to get there. Caution, you may have to edit a bit creatively or bleep over ....certain words that start with an n....that's being tossed around like a hot potato...Anyway. The story is history and needs to be history that we remember...and yet there is not a single reaction to this movie on KZbin

In all my years… seeing this movie probably a dozen times… I NEVER realized that the mailman in the Mrs. Doubtfire show was the old host 😂🤯

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

LOL, if you watch a lot of my stuff I tend to pick up on little things. I caught like a big Ghostbusters thing that people were like WTH, I've seen that move 20 times. If I remember right it was the stairs to the roof was behind her Fridge.

The little girl in this movie , Mara Wilson is the girl that plays Matilda. It's a magical movie that you would love.

[@teresaluthye1153]

Great reaction! Your laugh is contagious!

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thank you so much

[@digitaladventurer2142]

Yeah this was a great movie. There was actually a deleted scene that took place after the mom found out he was Mrs. Doubtfire where they were really fighting again and the kids were upstairs listening but they decided it was too much for a family movie so they cut it which was probably a good idea. Its also why Daniel decided to wait outside at the end of the movie

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

good info thanks

I never noticed how Lydia looks at Chris in the background when he asks for the Smoking section hahaha.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Yeah, she didn't like that

[@mabarker9297]

Glad to see that you enjoyed this great movie as well. Robin Williams was definitely one of kind. Here are some good movies of his to check out The Birdcage, Jack, Cider House Rules, Dead Poets Society, Night at the Museum and Good Will Hunting. There are so many more as well. If you decide to check out any Disney animated movies I would suggest Alladin. Robin's role in that was simply classic and legendary. The comedy special you referred to was Comic Relief and was started by Robin Williams, Whoopie Goldberg and Billy Crystal for homelessness. The money raised was 100 percent given directly to shelters and organizations across the US helping the homeless. It became an annual event. Keep enjoying the movies...

My second favorite Robin Williams movie. My first being Aladdin of course. RIP Robin.

If you want to hear Sally Field going absolutely ham with her voice, you should watch Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey. She plays the voice of the cat, appropriately named "Sassy" and it is an absolute joy to listen to. Plus Michael J. Fox as one of the dogs

It still hurts every time I remember he's gone...

[@e72882]

This was always such a great film. In this role, I always wished Robin Williams could be my dad. However, as I got older, even though my dad was not as hip, or into cross-dressing to play a nanny as Robin Williams was, my dad was willing to sacrifice so much for us kids. So, that is something that I always appreciate about this film. The comedy is still great and I love the line "It was a drive-by fruiting!".

[@brianmatthews1736]

Someone hasn't seen many movies if they do not know Sally Field...

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Nope, watch the intro. Without this channel I'd probably only seen 20 movies my whole life

[@mchllwoods]

u should have seen the inspiration for this movie. An 80's movie with Dustin Hoffman called Tootsie. Robin Williams said in an interview that he had to get some advice from Hoffman on pretending to be a woman. U really should watch Nine Months next. in my opinion Robin is way more funny! Also, u should see Robin in one of his thrillers One Hour Photo.

@@AwesomeUSMovies which one exactly? I've said several.

[@EricAKATheBelgianGuy]

Another one with a similar premise is Some Like It Hot from 1959. It was probably Marilyn Monroe's best role, and perhaps Jack Lemmon's best role as well. And it has one of my favorite endings of any films.

[@mchllwoods]

@@EricAKATheBelgianGuy I'll have to check that out as well.

@@ScarlettM Unfortunately Gene Hackman was kinda wasted in that role. He did good for what he was given, but he's done so many much better performances. To me, it just stands out among everything else truly exceptional in that film.

@@k1productions87 I think Gene Hackman was very good in this role. He's tale of seeing foliage during the drive is hilarious. I don't think that this was his best role or that he was the absolute best actor for it, but I am happy with his performance.

Haha brilliant start.... you said he isn't on the cover.... I wish I'd never seen it so I could enjoy it for the first time..... You say no spoilers but you're literally the first person I've ever heard hadn't seen it.... except my seven year old nephew which reminds me I need to show him this movie.

I hope you get a chance to check out some of my other reactions

[@SeanHendy]

Not the 'Hollywood ending' that you and every one else was expecting, but on reflection, I think it was the first film I ever saw that portrayed a divorced/divorcing couple AND showing there can be a positive outcome. This is one of my favourite films and one of my favourite actors. It is still surreal to talk about Robin Williams in the past tense. We can only wonder what he would have done if he was still with us. His filmography is really worth checking out and much of it I think you would enjoy very much. The World According To Garp, Good Morning Vietnam, Patch Adams, What Dreams May Come, Dead Poets Society, The Fisher King, Good Will Hunting, Bicentennial Man, would be my initial recommendations of his best work and most enjoyable films.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thanks, di've added all these to my list. It's appreciated

[@SeanHendy]

@@AwesomeUSMovies You're most welcome. I think you're in for a treat, a journey, and maybe a few tears. The World According To Garp, bizarre, entertaining, unexpected. Good Morning Vietnam - based on a true story, hilarious, poignant. Patch Adams - based on a true story, funny, poignant, fascinating, hits you in the feels. What Dreams May Come - enlightening, colourful. Dead Poets Society - Oscar winning, multiple Oscar nominations, provocative drama. The Fisher King - welcome to the eccentric mind of Terry Gilliam (Monty Python). Oscar winning, multiple nominations. Good Will Hunting - wow, wow, wow, screenplay gold from Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, who also star. Box office smash, Oscars all round for all three. Funny, interesting, incredible script and fascinating back story of the making of. Bicentennial Man - the critics didn't like it, but then again, I don't often like the films they rave about, so there you go. I think this is a bit of a hidden gem. Looking forward to seeing your future reactions. All the very best.

In my opinion I think that Mrs Doubtfire was the pinnacle of Robin Williams career in comedy. It was his best. He does have a future as a dramatic actor though...Won an academy award once!
