Mrs. Doubtfire Is Problematic – Here’s Why Daniel Is The Real Villain

November 14, 2023 by Mariska Lee

In the world of classic family comedies, few have resonated as deeply as “Mrs. Doubtfire,” a film that has delighted audiences since its release in 1993. At its heart, the movie tells the story of Daniel Hillard (played by the incomparable Robin Williams), a loving but irresponsible father who transforms into the lovable Scottish nanny, Mrs. Doubtfire, to spend time with his children after a messy divorce.

However, a closer examination reveals a more complex narrative, one where Daniel, often seen as the protagonist, might not be the hero we all remember. Meanwhile, the supposed ‘villain’ of the piece, Stuart Dunmeyer (portrayed by Pierce Brosnan), is perhaps just a regular guy caught in an unusual family dynamic.

We all have our favorite line. We all have our favorite scene. We would all add it to the list of our favorite movies of all time. The 1993 family movie Mrs. Doubtfire is still one of the best comedies that will warm your heart then make you laugh until you can’t breathe. For actress Lisa Jakub, it was a dream for a fourteen-year-old to be on set with actors Sally Field, Pierce Brosnan, and Robin Williams. Help is on the way, dear, to see what Lisa’s been up to since starring in one of the most memorable comedies of the 90s that still holds up today.

It’s hard to believe it’s been 30 years since Mara Wilson charmed audiences as Robin Williams’ precocious young daughter Natalie in the 1993 hit comedy Mrs. Doubtfire.

With her adorable smile and sharp comic timing, Wilson was one of the most popular child actors of the 1990s. But where has she been for the past couple decades?
