Hawke played in the movie "Dead Poet's Society" with Robin Williams and he says Williams was irritating.

Hawke said Williams would crack jokes on set and that irritated Hawke because he claims Williams didn't know when to let up.

I can see that because Robin Williams to me seemed to suffer from ADHD or some similar disorder and I never found him funny personally although I did like some of his movies.

While Williams process was a bit unusual, Hawke learned the actor actually garnered a huge range because of his comedic background.

As I get older, I realize there is something intimidating about young peoples earnestness, their intensity, said Hawke. It is intimidating to be the person they think you are. Robin was that for me.

Further, Williams would be the one to help Hawke get an agent and pursue more works in the industry.

That was sort of his style, yeah. Like all comedians, not for everyone.

I've liked his movies but I can definitely see that. I think he and speilberg had issues on Hook to the point of being one of the movies he hated making the most.

yeah. Funny to see on screen but while trying to work on a film I could see it being too much. The guy struggled with mental health and substance abuse his entire life, humor might have been his only way to cope.

Sounds like even if it's true, it's taboo to criticize Robin.

Wait, pretend I didn't write that.

Ok here's my real post:

"Omg fuck that Ethan Hawke guy!"

(Wait... I love Ethan Hawke... Remember he's from that 1986 movie Explorers with River Phoenix and that love movie trio Before Sunrise with Julie Delpy)

*ahem*

Yeah, that Ethan Hawke is a loser!

(*shifts eyes left then right* phew... think they bought it? "No, you idiot. Now both hate you. You're thinking outloud.")

For at least part of his life, some of the problem was probably cocaine-related.

Later in life, he had issues that directly contributed to his suicide.

In-between? Something like ADHD or bipolar was certainly a possibility, but as far as I know it went undiagnosed if so.

Doubly so if the thing people love you for is endearing in small doses but would be hellish over prolonged periods of time.

It's mostly a question of how much someone's over the top persona is an act and part of their stage presence, and how much they can damp that down and be "normal" with friends and family.

It's the difference between Dwayne Johnson and The Rock. The Rock is awesome and charismatic and fun to watch, but you'd absolutely hate having to live with him for any length of time - you'd get tired of his shit real fast. But Dwayne Johnson is a much more chill human being, and is the sort of guy you'd probably enjoy hanging out with.

For a lot of comedians, I'd imagine it's probably hard to dial it back completely. I think for someone like Robin Williams or Louis CK, that's probably kinda just how they are naturally. Some comedians seem like they're just being themselves and then you have the over the top performer comedians like Dane Cook where it's clearly just a stage persona

I think mental illness is usually what draws people to certain types of substance abuse in the first place. Its an attempt to self medicate.
