It was on my list because of the soundtrack, so when I didn’t hear the iconic track at all during the movie I looked it up.

Turns out that there is a re-scored version with a completely different soundtrack, and that was the version we got…

. Featuring an exclusive new soundtrack curated by Zane Lowe.

I will be watching this movie again next weekend, with the proper soundtrack

    Actually, if you look at Robin Williams repertoire of films, he does a lot of very depressing movies. Like the ratio of funny movies to depressing movies is extraordinarily lopsided.

      Off the top of my head, What Dreams May Come and One Hour Photo are two wildly different types of movie, both kinda bleak in their own way, and neither what you’d turn to if you wanted a Robin Williams comedy. To some extent World’s Greatest Dad as well, though that one actually is pretty funny.

      Yeah, but this was like 1999 and we didn’t know the wide range of talent that the man had. I saw 1 hour photo and what dreams may come later.

        The behind the scenes for 1 Hour Photo has perfectly normal Robin Williams goofing off and it’s just jarring going from watching the really serious and depressing movie and just seeing him on the set goofing off and making everyone around laugh
