From russellbell at gmail.com Sun Jan 6 14:54:17 2019 From: russellbell at gmail.com (russellbell at gmail.com) Date: Sun, 6 Jan 2019 15:54:17 -0700 Subject: Étienne Decroux Message-ID: <201901062254.x06MsHX9027348@randytool.net> About 2 minutes into 'Either/Or' Joe asks mime Bertram Fields if he studied mime with Marcel Marceau. Fields responds that he studied with Marceau under famous mime ?tienne Decroux. I had always thought of this episode as pure parody, but Decroux was a famous mime with whom Marceau (if not Bertram Fields, not to be confused with the noted entertainment lawyer of the same name https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bert_Fields - a namesake? ) studied. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89tienne_Decroux I came upon this starting with the obituary of Georges Loinger (at 108!), a French resistance fighter who saved hundreds of Jewish children: a hero worth remembering. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/04/obituaries/georges-loinger-dead.html Loinger was a cousin of Marceau, who also worked with the resistance. Loinger's obituary links to Marceau's, https://www.nytimes.com/2007/09/24/arts/24marceau.html , which mentions Decroux. russell bell From russellbell at gmail.com Thu Jan 31 09:16:12 2019 From: russellbell at gmail.com (russellbell at gmail.com) Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2019 10:16:12 -0700 Subject: [joe-frank-list] 'Clement at Christmas': Clement von Franckenstein Message-ID: <201901311716.x0VHGCpg003385@randytool.net> This fellow's biography matches 'Clement at Christmas': https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0820527/bio?ref_=nm_ov_bio_sm https://www.facebook.com/clement.franckenstein There are other pages about him. russell bell From jflist at krimsen.org Thu Jan 31 12:05:37 2019 From: jflist at krimsen.org (D.A.

How did you come across this? By the way, the YouTube video on his Facebook page is no longer there, but if you search for Clement Von Franckenstein , you get a bunch of videos of him, including an acting reel. D.A.
