Marcel Marceau has passed away.

He had the best line in Silent Movie, amongst other things.

Let's have a moment of cacophony, in memory.

He should be honored with a moment of silence.

I saw Marcel Marceau around 30 years ago, when he was still touring college towns (I grew up in a college town). Yes, he did the "trapped in a box" and "walking in a windy room" schticks; in fact, he opened with them.

But he could also do things like "climbing a ladder with a broken heart" and "recovering a lost childhood that was stuck on the roof".

He was an original, and a true Artist.

And according to his wife, he never shut up at home.

I was actually surprised that the announcement on NPR wasn't:

"Today, it was announced that Marcel Marceau died quietly..."
