TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

During filming, Robin Williams and the rest of the cast and crew worked closely with the Make-A-Wish Foundation to fulfill the fantasies of several children who were at the time undergoing cancer treatment. The children appeared with Williams in scenes at the pediatric ward.

Patch Adams said that whenever the film's production would get stressful, Robin Williams would improvise a comedy set to make the cast and crew laugh.

One of the film's producers, Mike Farrell, met the real Patch Adams when Adams served as an advisor to the TV series M*A*S*H (1972), in which Farrell played B.J. Hunnicutt, one of the Army doctors.

Filmed partially at the University of North Carolina. Robin Williams did stand up comedy for some classes that were in session while filming.

In 2014, co-stars Philip Seymour Hoffman and Robin Williams died within nearly six months of each other. Hoffman died on February 2nd, and Williams died on August 11th.

Popular Dialogues

"Hunter Patch Adams: You treat a disease, you win, you lose. You treat a person, I guarantee you, you'll win, no matter what the outcome."

"Hunter Patch Adams: I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you straightforwardly without complexities or pride. I love you because I know no other way then this. So close that your hand, on my chest, is my hand. So close, that when you close your eyes, I fall asleep."
