    • Trivia
      According to one biography, Robin Williams decided to test out the believability of his Mrs. Doubtfire character during filming by going as Mrs. Doubtfire into an adult bookstore and making a purchase. He was able to do so without being recognized.
    • Goofs
      When Mrs. Doubtfire throws the lime at Stu, it cuts to Stu getting hit in the head. When it cuts back to Mrs. Doubtfire, the same lime is clearly at the top of the fruit dish. The same lime disappears and reappears from the fruit dish several times in this scene.
    • Quotes

      Miranda: What happened?

      Mrs. Doubtfire: He was quite fond of the drink. It was the drink that killed him.

      Miranda: How awful. He was an alcoholic?

      Mrs. Doubtfire: No, he was hit by a Guinness truck. So it was quite literally the drink that killed him.

    • Alternate versions
      The Australian DVD was made using the cut UK version, meaning it has 13 seconds of dialogue cut despite no previous censorship problems. VHS, theatrical and television versions are all intact.

    Robin Williams Dressed Up As A 60 Year Old Women? HILARIOUS!
    I saw this movie at the cinema in 1993 and thought it was fantastic! It has everything you could ever really want in a comedy. Daniel Hillard (Robin Williams) will do ANYTHING to see his children! This movie has plenty of gags, but it all comes together in a nice, friendly framework that centres around one man's family and that man's love for his children that'll make him dress up as a 60 year old granny to get back into their lives! Plenty of laughs throughout and all-round great performances. 9/10
