Cantinflas (Around the World in 80 Days, Ahรญ estรก el detalle, Ni Sangre, ni Arena)โOH BOY I GET TO TALK ABOUT CANTINFLAS!! Honestly, Iโm not the most qualified to even be talking about him: he was famously a king of wordplay, but Spanish is my second language so I always feel like Iโm missing some of the jokesโฆ..but even so he is so SO funny itโs like unbelievable. Ok so also. One movie I can talk confidently about is him in around the world in 80 days, which i have watched so many times and he just rocks. Like. ROCKS. Here he is on his dumb little bike [included below the cut]. This is how we meet him in th movie and I think they should have just put the words โSCRUNGLYโ across the scene.He also does little tricks, wears his dumb little shoes, has some kind of weird romantic thing going on with David nivenโฆ..it makes me so sad we dont have even more movies from him because honestly his whole thing (esp in 80 days with his silly trousers) is just Gender. ย
Harpo Marx (Night at the Opera, Night in Casablanca, Duck Soup)โWhile Groucho is better-known, Harpo's physical comedy is SECOND-TO-NONE. The man is a strange mime trapped in the paradigm of early 20th century movies. Every move is a symphony and simultaneously a colony of rats in a human skin suit. LISTEN. You MUST see this man in motion. Every still photo of him looks like a combination of a sad clown and a different, sadder clown, but it's only because he put so much joy in every motion.
