Robin Williams Double Feature: Bicentennial Man (1999)


Listen Later

Robin Williams embodied all that was great about the 1990s. But his unbridled physical humor paired with a natural ability to bring warmth to the screen were both missed in the 1999 drama “Bicentennial Man” in which Williams plays an android. The film opens with a slightly weird obsession with a child named Lil’ Miss and ends with Robin’s character marrying Lil’ Miss’ youthful doppelganger granddaughter. The hosts discuss the trademark Williamesque performance and critique the lengthy harried-paced script (based on a novel by Issac Asimov, and written by “Matilda” writer Nicholas Kazan).
