Being Human Movie

As an aging nanny in drag, Robin Williams catapulted the movie "Mrs. Doubtfire" into a runaway hit for 20th Century Fox, which recently released the popular comedy on videocassette. Meanwhile, Warner Bros. this month opened its own Robin Williams movie, "Being Human," but to wildly different results. While "Mrs. Doubtfire" has grossed $400 million worldwide at the box office, and is expected to be a hit at video stores, "Being Human" will likely wind up in the dust bin of good intentions.
