The Fisher King

I just finished watching The Fisher King, currently available on Netflix, and I really liked it.  I've been missing Robin Williams, and doing a lot of soul searching lately because of his death.  I guess that's why this movie drew me in.  Even though it was a tear jerker, I laughed a lot in the middle of it.  I completely lost it when Parry's demons were explained.  I could directly identify with him because of what happened to Hardy and me.  The movie will only be available until Sept. 1st, so get in there and watch. 

The Fisher King is about a New York shock jock (Jeff Bridges) who is racked with guilt after inspiring a killing spree. He eventually finds redemption through his acquaintance with Parry (Robin Williams), a homeless man who was inadvertently involved in the rampage.
