If there was ever an article I wish, with all my heart, I didn't need to write, it's this one. The fact that I'm With Geek is commemorating the cinematic works of this film and comic icon means only one thing; that a shining light in the world has gone out, that an inspiration and an irreplaceable emblem of childhood has passed away. In short, Robin Williams has gone on an awfully big adventure.
Based on a true story, Patch Adams tells the tale of Hunter "Patch" Adams, a unique individual with a beautiful view on the world who, after a suicide attempt, admits himself into a psychiatric facility to get better. While there, Patch finds himself, finds a direction in life - not from the Doctors, but through his interractions with his fellow patients - and embarks to become a Doctor himself.
