RIP Marcel Marceau, age 84.
Marceau was credited with single-handedly reviving the art of mime after World War II, after two decades of being eclipsed by the silent movie.
He was the only person to get a speaking line in Mel Brooks "Silent Movie." :)
"Non!" (The movie is about them running around asking people to be in the movie; he refuses.)
When asked what he said Mel Brooks' word frame reads I don't know, I don't speak French.
