“No, Sadly, There Isn’t an NC-17 Cut of Mrs. Doubtfire” by Halle Kiefer via Vulture
“The reality is that there was a deal between Robin and myself, which was, he’ll do one or two, three scripted takes. And then he would say, ‘Then let me play.’ And we would basically go on anywhere between 15 to 22 takes, I think 22 being the most I remember,” Columbus recalls. “He would sometimes go into territory that wouldn’t be appropriate for a PG-13 movie, but certainly appropriate and hilariously funny for an R-rated film.”
Emphasis mine ahhhhhhhh.
I adore Robin Williams and have an essay about him and his impact on my life and my comedy brewing in my head. Anywhoozle, I’d be first in the proverbial line to see this cut of Mrs. Doubtfire. I also wonder how this movie and its premise would be approached were it pitched/green lit today 🧐
