There are tons of films I could add to your two. Good Morning Vietnam, Good Will Hunting, even Bicentennial Man. Robin Williams was not just a comedian, he was a truly great actor. I don't think those movies foreshadow his suicide. His manic-depression and his addictive personality (and subsequent problems with addiction) foreshadowed his suicide. He is just the latest in a long line of intensely creative people who, for one reason or another, felt they needed a more intensely lived experience through substances (or felt they needed them to cope with reality). Dead Poets Society 100% stands up. That movie is seriously good.
