I remember this movie because I took a junior college course entitled literature and film. One of the books was Saul Bellow's novel, Seize the Day. I don't remember much about the story but I remember the film. It's set in New York City about a poor man played to perfection by the one and only Robin Williams. It's not a laughing matter with him in the starring role as the Jewish salesman. The final scene leaves more questions than answers. I remember the film was faithful to the author's version. After all, Saul Bellow is a Nobel Prize winner for literature. Robin's performance is no laughing matter because his character can never catch a break in New York City. You just realize that he is one of thousands who are more or less suffering from society's neglect. In the end, society can be hell after all.
