My favourite Williams picture will always be THE WORLD ACCORDING TO GARP, but WHAT DREAMS MAY COME is incredibly moving and a classic waiting to be rediscovered.
my favorite was his golf video. hilarious stand up comedy.
He was great in Stripes, Vacation, and Caddyshack. I am heartbroken that he will never get to make Ghostbusters 3 or another Vacation. Was the other driver drunk or on drugs?
