What more can be said about the inestimable Robin Williams. Instead, here’s an opportunity to gather with others to celebrate his life and career. This Sunday, the Paramount Theatre is offering a free screening of The Birdcage, starring Nathan Lane, Dianne Wiest, and Gene Hackman, one of Williams’s funniest, most heartfelt roles. He has many memorable lines in his films, but few more than this one: “You do Fosse, Fosse, Fosse! You do Martha Graham, Martha Graham, Martha Graham! Or Twyla, Twyla, Twyla! Or Michael Kidd, Michael Kidd, Michael Kidd, Michael Kidd! Or Madonna, Madonna, Madonna!… but you keep it all inside.” RIP Robin.
