The movie has Robin Williams and Tea Leoni but they are not the main characters. It's this movie that features a life of a New Yorkan boy. He has a retarded friend (Robin Williams) and his overprotected mother (Tea Leoni) [who plays the wife of Adam Sandler in "Spanglish"].
Well, in the movie, his life is quite complicated. His dad is dead long time ago, his mother dies in a coma after taking too many pills because her son got expelled. This boy has a friend who is in jail. It's this black woman who always gives him advice. Her name in the movie is always "Lady."
He wants a new life so goes to France and has his own family. He explains his childhood to his wife. And then he goes back to New York after about 20 years and reunites with Lady, and with his now unretarded friend Robin Williams.
My description might not do any good but theres not many movies like this one. The movie has 2 times. ONe of when the boy was ages 12-13 in new york. and the next wen he is in his late 30's.

"House of D"
Actor David Duchovny made his debut as a director and screenwriter with this coming-of-age drama, in which a grown man looks back at his adolescence. It's 1973, and Tommy (Anton Yelchin) is a 13-year-old boy living in New York's Greenwich Village with his mother (Téa Leoni), who is still coming to terms with the death of her husband. Tommy's best friend is Pappass (Robin Williams), a mentally challenged man who is in his thirties, but is at the same emotional age as Tommy; Pappass delivers meat for a local butcher, and Tommy helps him out. Tommy has discovered women, and has a crush on Melissa (Zelda Williams), a cute girl in his class, but Pappass isn't much interested in the opposite sex, and can offer little advice on the subject. Tommy's lone confidante on this issue is Lady Bernadette (Erykah Badu), a woman locked up in the nearby Women's House of Detention who offers advice shouted from her window. When Pappass begins to realize that Tommy is falling for Melissa, he's convinced he's losing his best friend, and in a moment of anger he steals a bicycle. Tommy tries to protect Pappas by claiming he was the thief, leading to a series of serious repercussions. Years later, Tommy (now played by Duchovny) is a grown man who leaves his home in Paris, France, to pay a visit to the old neighborhood and come to terms with the life he left behind.
