World's Greatest Dad
We stumbled on a new movie on TV the other night that has just come out in theaters (well, one theater to be exact... I have no idea how big a release is planned). It's a black comedy written and directed by Bobcat Goldthwait and starring Robin Williams. I know, it sounds like a real winner right there. Well, the truth is it's really quite good. 
Strange, awkward, filthy, funny, touching and sad at different times, it's a very entertaining, original movie. I enjoy Robin Williams the most in these sorts of movies where he is funny but not manic. He may not be easy to look at but he can be a great dramatic actor when he wants to be and one scene in particular brought me to tears. If you can find it, it's definitely worth checking out.
