Remembering Robin Williams on what would have been his 75th birthday and how he helped his longtime friend Christopher Reeve after his injury, according to Christopher, Robin visited him dressed up as an eccentric doctor making him laugh for the first time and said ‘If I can laugh, I can live’

I can highly recommend Super/Man, the Christopher Reeve documentary. It’s so impactful, and it has a lot of Robin Williams in it. Their friendship broke my heart, they shared such a deep bond. Also, Reeve’s family is amazing, and the film is very thoughtfully made, and heartbreaking at several points.

the reeve story gets me every time. a man who could make anyone laugh carrying that much of his own pain quietly. genie was my whole childhood
