Editor's Note: There is a point of view that the core of comedy is tragedy, for comedians, the pressure to star in comedies is the greatest, and the invisible sense of repression is accompanied by a sense of inner repression, which becomes their unknown inner monologue. The life of the American comedy master Robin Williams is a good support for the idea that the core of comedy is tragedy, he has been laughing at others, and finally depressed suicide, this kind of sad life makes us have to think about a question: Is the person who makes others happy must be happy? From Robin Williams' life experience, we may find the answer.
On August 11, 2014, American comedy actor Robin Williams was found to have committed suicide in his apartment in California, and the news shocked the American comedy industry and hollywood as a whole. This master of comedy, who has a reputation in the United States and around the world, said goodbye to us in this way, which is astonishing.
Robin Williams' acting career has been associated with comedy, and he has starred in many classic film and television works. Since stepping into the film and television industry in 1980, his achievements have been admirable, three times nominated for the Oscar, once crowned the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, and won the 62nd Golden Globe Awards Lifetime Achievement Award, which are all proof of his acting prowess.
However, robin Williams' fate seems to play a big joke on us. He suffered from depression, was plagued by an unexamined condition during his lifetime, and was misdiagnosed as Parkinson's syndrome before being diagnosed with Lewy body dementia after his death. He once brought laughter to countless people, but the final stage of his life was deeply in pain.
What kind of ordeal did Robin Williams go through?
Five years ago, the final chapter of the fantasy comedy film series directed by Sean Levy, "Museum Fantastic Night 3", was released in China. Compared with the first two films, although the storyline continues the bridge section of the resurrection of the old antiques and lacks novelty, more cameos and more intuitive jokes of star actors, coupled with more exquisite pictures, make this part a lot of points to watch.
The most fundamental starting point of this entertaining film is to amuse the audience, and the male protagonist Ben Stiller, as always, has a sense of self-deprecating humor and becomes a key character connecting the entire film.
Unfortunately, Museum Night 3 became the last legacy of actors Robin Williams and Mickey Rooney. For Robin Williams, his portrayal of the kind-hearted President Roosevelt was very impressive, but his final closing moments inevitably seemed a little sad.
As someone said, all the people in the museum can be resurrected, but Robin Williams can't be resurrected. He sat on horseback with his waist straight and waved his sword to encourage everyone, which is still vividly remembered in the hearts of many fans.
What many people don't know is that while starring in this movie, the real-life Robin Williams has been tormented by severe dementia.

In 1989, Robin Williams played a thoughtful teacher Kitin in the inspirational film Dead Poetry Society, directed by Peter Weir, establishing the classic image of the soul engineer.

A kind smile, classic inspirational quotes, became a major feature of Robin Williams.
In 1995, Robin Williams joined the science fiction comedy Brave's Game produced by Columbia Pictures, and his dreamy experience of the male protagonist Allen in a mysterious game board became the biggest attraction in this creative film.

The gracious and benevolent Robin Williams seems to be a combination of a kind and wise benevolent, and you can never imagine what he would have looked like if he had played the villain role.

As the trailer says, the rare Lewy body dementia causes Robin Williams' brain to suffer extreme damage, but he struggles with the disease while trying to make fun of others, and the disease slowly takes away his comedic inspiration and makes him bored, and Robin Williams's greatest desire is to continue to bring joy to others.
