Dear Marlene Many thanks for the beautiful flowers for my birthday. It was a very kind thought and much appreciated. We miss your cheerful laugh now you are home again. Hopefully we will see you again next year. Kindest Regards Mary
Dear Val, You think your (winter) weather - sunny but cold at about 4-6C in the morning and 13-16C during the day - is cold for you but not so cold for us? Hmmm! You should try our *summer* weather! Today it was 14C at 8am and it may reach 20C this afternoon between the heavy showers if we are lucky. Howie
Every now and then I run across a name in my reading that intrigues me. Mario Moreno Reyes, better known as Cantinflas, although not well known in North America, was a very well known singer, clown, comic actor, and latterly, a philanthropist in Mexico and the rest of the Spanish speaking world. If you had not heard of him before, the short biography below will serve as introduction to the longer biographies found at the following URLs. http://www.texasescapes.com/MaggieVanOstrand/Cantinflas-Super-Comic-Super-St ar-Super-Man.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantinflas Captn John Cantinflas A small man with big ears, a distinctive mustache, pants that never stayed up, and a jaunty little cap cocked upon his eternally mussed hair, comic actor Cantinflas is beloved throughout the Spanish-speaking world and considered the Mexican Charlie Chaplin. Like Chaplin, Cantinflas' frenetic brand of slapstick was as balletic as it was athletic, leading others to compare him to Buster Keaton. His ability to combine humor with pathos was also decidedly Chaplin-esque, while his portrayal of the cocky, optimistic, but naïve little guy evoked Harold Lloyd. But despite such comparisons, Cantinflas' overall style was unique. Unlike the great silent funnymen to which he is compared, Cantinflas worked during the sound era. He usually played a smart-alecky peasant or average fellow and was famous for weasling out of trouble with the authorities by overwhelming them with intimidatingly pompous machine-gun speed monologues that, while sounding gloriously informed, signified absolutely nothing. He was born Mario Moreno Reyes and started out singing and dancing in traveling tent variety shows known as carpas. He gained a large following as a circus clown and acrobat and then became a bullfighter/bullring clown, the Mexican equivalent of American rodeo clowns who distract bulls from performers in trouble. Cantinflas made his film debut in 1936 with No te Engages Corazon. Forty-nine more films followed. His humor is deeply rooted in Spanish cultures; this combined with his unique patter did not translate well to non-Spanish-speaking audiences. He did have one English-language success when he played Passepartout, loyal valet of Phinneas Fogg, in the smash hit Around the World in 80 Days (1956). He did not make another Hollywood film until 1960's notorious box-office bomb Pepe. After that rare failure, Cantinflas returned to making Spanish-language films. Following his retirement in the late '60s, Cantinflas devoted his life to helping others through charity and humanitarian organizations, especially those dedicated to helping children. In 1988, he received a lifetime achievement award from the Mexican Academy of Cinema. In 1993, shortly before his death from lung cancer, Cantinflas was named a "symbol of peace and happiness of the Americas." ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
Thank you for the funny little card Sue. Cathy mentioned that she couldn't reply on that page as her typing was invisible. I treated myself to a nice big slice of my favourite cream cake. Mary
