...brilliant French mime, Marcel Marceau, is "the art of expressing feelings by attitudes and not a means of expressing words through gestures." When Skelton this week shut his mouth for half an hour, he demonstrated Marceau's point better than any of the other U.S. performers-Caesar.

(Reggie also crept into Gleason's performance of Joe, the philosophical boozer, in Playhouse 90's otherwise first-rate production of William Saroyan's The Time of Your Life.) Perhaps Gleason's worst mistake: replacing Art Carney and Audrey Meadows...
