He went all in and left it all on the stage.
After NAVALNY won the Oscar, Robbie wrote to me: “I guess I was right about this kid from Canada.”
Rest easy Robbie, I’ll be listening to your songs until the day I die.
The news of @r0bbier0berts0n's passing hit me deeply. He took a chance on me, when I was just 24, to direct a film about his life. It was a big job, but Robbie saw something in me. Robbie reminded me to take big swings and to dream big.
Media: @DanielRoher to @Acosta: "What #Russia needs is a @Navalny-like figure, someone with the resilience and skills to instill a democratic tradition in that country, though right now it seems like an impossible dream. ... #Putin is less a president than a mob boss."

As you know, "Navalny" won the Oscar for best documentary. Here the man @Navalny relates how he learned about the Oscar for the film Navalny -- and I've got to say, he has an amazing sense of humor for someone in Putin's prisons. Navalny has the last laugh!
Congratulations to the Canadians who were nominated at the #Oscars this year – and a special shoutout to those who are bringing home a statue: Brendan Fraser, @RealSarahPolley, @DanielRoher, and Adrien Morot. Bravo! 🇨🇦
TONIGHT: @NavalnyDoc airs at 8pmET/5pmPT on @CNN. See the story behind the man with a mission to bring democracy to Russia and who Putin tried to silence again and again
