Good Morning Vietnam is probably my favorite film of his. Another good one not (I don't think) mentioned is Awakenings.
Absolutely this. One hour photo, dead poets society, good will hunting, good morning vietnam, and honestly I liked Insomnia as well.
We don't have debtors prison in the US.Dunno. The video linked earlier in this thread (and duplicated below) done by Stefan Molyneux contends that Robin Williams was hammered by his divorces and had to work like a maniac to stay out of prison.

Dead poet society made me want to be a professor.
(CNN) -- The death of actor and comedian Robin Williams has officially been ruled a suicide, the coroner in Marin County, California, said Friday.
Alcohol and illegal drugs were not involved, the statement from the coroner's office said. Prescription drugs were found in "therapeutic concentrations," the statement added.
Bah. This still makes me sad every time I'm reminded of it. So many good movies. I'm grateful for the contribution he made in his time on earth & I was sad to see him go.
Like most of the great stand-up comedians, Robin Williams has always kept a certain wall between himself and his audience. If you watch his concert videos, you see him trying on a bewildering series of accents and characters; he's a gifted chameleon who turns into whatever makes the audience laugh. But who is inside?
With George Carlin, Richard Pryor, Steve Martin, Billy Crystal, Eddie Murphy, we have an idea—or think we do. A lot of their humor depends on confessional autobiography. With Robin Williams, the wall remains impenetrable. Like Groucho Marx, he uses comedy as a strategy for personal concealment.
