There once was a mime in his coffin

With mourners all sad, hats a'doffin'

He, with shakes of his head,

Tried to shout "I'm not dead"

But the assembled crowd couldn't hear noffin'

 

 

 

There once was a mime called Marcel

Who hoped to play footy for Arsenal

Although he was French

They left him on the bench

And now he just plays pass-the-parcel

He must have forgot to turn the mute button off.

 

So he was a French-Jew. That's ... very common. Anyway I've always thought these silent dramatic performers were interesting. I mean the circus has a lot of 'clowns' and 'microscopic people' and men and women that are being shot out of cannons ... ex

 

But I've never seen a 'Mute Marcel' at the circus. I can say that. If I did he was sure keeping it down.

I know he was in trouble when he showed his heart attack act. Very convincing performence.

One great Marceau performance worth calling up here is his cameo in Mel Brookes' Silent Movie. In the movie they ring Marceau to ask him to appear in the film, and he says; 'non!' It's the only line spoken by an actor in the whole film.

So WTF has being a "French Jew" got to do with it?

I hate to break this to you, but there are probably more Jews and their descendants living in France than there are White Supremists living in the State of New York.

It's like being Asian and Canadian, you just don't see it everyday.

 

But I take your correction as a lesson. Not doing statistics by the books

 

Being French and Jewish ' approximately 1\85 people. Not eye brow raising then.

 

Being Asian and Canadian approximately ... 1\845

I heard the news on the radio last night and immediately felt pig ignorant. For my entire life I had thought that Marcel was victorian and had died over a century ago. What a cretin.

 

As an aside the BBC is having a Have You Say page about Marcel asking for the great unwashed to submit their memories of Marcel and the effect he had on their lives. As you can imagine a page asking the sort of people who submit thoughts to HYS about their memories of a French mime artist is very, very busy at the moment.

I see that Cefor's Cremains, one of the two DDP teams captained by a cat, has scored a hit with Marceau's death.

 

8 hits in 6 years now. Well done Cefor (if you're reading this)
