It's crazy to believe that Mrs. Doubtfire premiered 28 years ago this week. Where has the time gone?!
In addition to giving us warm, fuzzy feelings, this movie gave us the late Robin Williams at his best.
But it's recently been resurfaced that the movie was almost downright depressing thanks to two deleted scenes.
If you can handle learning what they are, keep reading.
This wasn't done in vain thankfully, as the movie won the Academy Award for Best Makeup.
Plus, classic Robin made the process fun by cracking jokes the entire time to makeup artist, Ve Neill.
Are we even surprised? The late actor revealed this in a Reddit AMA:
"I walked into a sex shop in San Francisco and tried to buy a (sex toy). Just because. Why not?" Right before paying, the worker realized it was him.
In light of the film's 27th anniversary, it was recently resurfaced that the film had two scenes removed because they were too sad for families.
The first clip showed Daniel (Robin) and Miranda's (Sally) daughter, Lydia (Lisa Jakub), participating in a spelling bee.
Once outside, she wondered why her parents were acting like children.
Then, Daniel came up and apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, I couldn't control myself."
It hits close to home for anyone who wished their divorced parents could just get along for their sake.
You can watch the emotional moment yourself below.
Meanwhile, the kids were upstairs eavesdropping and crying.
Yet again, this moment would hit home for children who have parents who fight a lot or children of divorced parents.
Speaking of that, though, even the happy ending of the Hillards getting back together got cut in the end.
The film's screenwriter, Randi Mayem Singer, exited the movie after she was asked to write what was believed was a cliché happy ending.
As sad as this is, it does make sense. And it's the ending that we all know (and still love), as the relationship Daniel fixed was the one with his kids.
Like, for instance, how Williams hilariously didn't know the Barbara Streisand lyrics when he sang them!
Scott Capurro (Jack) and Harvey Fierstein (Frank) taught him the lyrics to "Don't Rain on My Parade," but he, of course, turned it into his own.
She had gotten kicked out for missing too many days due to filming. While Robin's letter didn't work, the school framed it. The moment also cemented Williams as a true sweetheart <3
