Thanks so much! Obligatory Doubtfire story: one of the first days of rehearsal, Chris Columbus (director) introduced Matt, Mara and I to his mother. She was nice, kind of eccentric. We sat with her and chatted and tried to seem professional. We only found out when we came back to set that we had been talking with Mrs. Doubtfire. We had no idea it was Robin.

Chris Columbus actually introduced us to "his mother" - we had a whole conversation with her without knowing it was Robin as Mrs. D.

I adored Robin. When we were filming Mrs. Doubtfire he used to sing Lydia The Tattooed Lady to me whenever I walked on set. But now I'm getting choked up so that's the end of that answer.

I was 14 when I worked with him, so I couldn’t have told you what beer and sex smelled like. So, I guess the answer is - probably.

Robin was wonderful. I actually got thrown out of high school during the shooting of Doubtfire – my school didn’t want to deal with the extra work of having my “non-traditional” situation. I was very upset about it and he asked me if he could write a letter to my school asking them to support me in trying to get my education while working. The school framed the letter, but didn’t let me back in. But it was very kind of him to try.
