| | Robin Williams Biography |
 | | Robin, playing a divorcee who disguises himself as an elderly house-maid in order to see his kids, delivered a storming performance (oddly, having divorced his wife and married the nanny, he here divorced his wife and BECAME the nanny). |
 | | Robin initially turned it down, believing he'd covered this territory extensively already ("The only thing I'm really suited for is the musical version of Congo", he said, referring to his own outrageous hairiness), but was tempted onboard when Francis Ford Coppola decided to direct. |
 | | Williams spent two weeks camping, cycling and playing basketball with the kids who'd be playing Powell's classmates, and made a fine job of the part, but audiences stayed away. |
