Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls start your engines. You're about to take an incredible ride with one of the most wonderful family films of all time! Now celebrating its 30th anniversary, "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" has never looked or sounded better. Dick Van Dyke stars as eccentric inventor Caractacus Potts, who creates an extraordinary car called "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang". It not only drives but also flies and floats as it leads him, his two children and his beautiful lady friend, Truly Scrumptious (Sally Ann Howes), into a magical world of pirates, castles and endless adventure.
Show-business legend Dick Van Dyke is living proof that life does
get better the longer you live it. Who better to offer instruction,
advice, and humour than someone who's entering his ninth decade
with a jaunty two-step? Van Dyke isn't just a born song-and-dance
man his irrepressible belief in embracing the moment and unleashing
his inner child has proved to be the ultimate elixir of youth. When
he was injured during the filming of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang , his
doctor warned him he'd be using a walker within seven years, but
Dick performed a soft shoe right there and never looked back.In
Keep Moving , Dick Van Dyke offers his own playful anecdotes and
advice, as well as insights from his brother, actor Jerry Van Dyke
his friend and creator of The Dick Van Dyke Show , Carl Reiner and
other spirited friends and family. Whether he's describing the
pleasure he takes in his habitual visits to the grocery store how
he met his late-in-life-love Arlene or how he sprung back, livelier
than ever, from a near-death experience, Dick's optimistic outlook
is an invigorating tonic for anyone who needs a reminder that life
should be lived with enthusiasm despite what the calendar says. You
don't have to act your age. You don't even have to feel it. And if
it does attempt to elbow its way into your life, you do not have to
pay attention. If I am out shopping and hear music playing in a
store, I start to dance. If I want to sing, I sing. I read books
and get excited about new ideas. I enjoy myself. I don't think
about the way I am supposed to act at my age - or at any age. As
far as I know, there is no manual for old age. There is no test you
have to pass. There is no way you have to behave. There is no such
thing as'age appropriate.'When people ask my secret to staying
youthful at an age when getting up and down from your chair on your
own is considered an accomplishment, you know what I tell
them?'Keep moving.'"- Dick Van Dyke

Comedy starring Ben Stiller, Robin Williams, Mickey Rooney and Dick
Van Dyke. Larry Daley (Stiller) is a kind-hearted dreamer who
always knew that he was destined for greatness, he just never quite
knew how. None of his ideas or inventions have panned out so, with
a heavy heart, he takes a regular job as a lowly graveyard-shift
security guard at the Museum of Natural History in order to provide
a more stable life for himself and his ten-year-old son, Nick (Jake
Cherry). On his first night on the job, however, he finds that
guardianship of the museum is far from stable. At nightfall an
Egyptian spell brings the artifacts and wax figures to life. With
Attila the Hun (Patrick Gallagher) charging to war through the
hallways, the diorama miniatures embroiled in a deadly feud, and a
two-ton Tyrannosaurus Rex nagging to play fetch, Larry turns to a
wax replica of President Roosevelt (Williams) for a little advice
on keeping things intact.
Mrs. Doubtfire (1993)
Robin Williams stars as difficult actor and husband Daniel Hillard who separates acrimoniously from his wife (Sally Field) and receives a court order limiting his visits to his children. As a result he dresses up as a Scottish nanny and gets employment with his ex-wife looking after his own kids.
Toys (1992)
When a benevolent toymaker dies, he leaves his factory in the care of his army general brother (Michael Gambon), until his son Leslie (Robin Williams) is mature enough to assume control. The General, however, re-structures the factory, and in a break with tradition begins to manufacture war toys, many of which, Leslie discovers, are more than playthings.
Night at the Museum (2006)
Robin Williams appears alongside Ben Stiller, Mickey Rooney and Dick Van Dyke. Larry Daley (Stiller) is a kind-hearted dreamer who always knew that he was destined for greatness; he just never quite knew how. None of his ideas or inventions have panned out so, with a heavy heart, he takes a regular job as a lowly graveyard-shift security guard at the Museum of Natural History in order to provide a more stable life for himself and his ten-year-old son, Nick (Jake Cherry). On his first night on the job, however, he finds that guardianship of the museum is far from stable. At nightfall an Egyptian spell brings the artefacts and wax figures to life and with Attila the Hun (Patrick Gallagher) declaring war through the hallways, Larry turns to a wax replica of President Roosevelt (Williams) for a little advice on keeping things in order.
Night at the Museum 2 (2009)
Stiller reprises his role as Larry Daley, the hapless security guard who encounters living and breathing museum exhibits. This time round, the Museum of Natural History has been closed for renovations, and the museum pieces moved into federal storage at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, where the collection includes artefacts associated with many of the great figures of American history including Theodore Roosevelt (Williams), Amelia Earhart (Amy Adams), General Custer (Bill Hader) and Al Capone (Jon Bernthal). Larry must infiltrate the museum's tight security to rescue Jedediah (Owen Wilson) and Octavius (Steve Coogan) who have been shipped there by mistake.
