      @@redstonecasey4713 Yes, he admits he doesn't have a loud laugh and just exhales from his nose. He's very technical about comedy and see's why things are funny rather than laughing at something funny. So he sticks to the script word for word for maximum effect.

      It is as same as like Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin has done 5 Talkies, but He has always been famous worldwide for the Role of a Tramp from the Era of the Silent Movies. When you can Act to deliver the Story and the Emotions without having to use a particular Language, You are Actually Breaking the Language Barrier and Suddenly Your reach to Your Audience increases to an Unimaginable Extant. Generally people remember An Actor with a character which they find to be more Fascinating and more Relatable to Them. It may be Sir Marlon Brando as Don Vito Corleone Or Sir Heath Ledger as the Joker Or Sir RDJ as the Iron Man and These are just to name a Few. But yeah,I do believe that Sir Rowan Atkinson should get Knighted ASAP for His Immense, Immeasurable and Incalculable Contribution in the Field of Art and Cinema.He deserves It.

      I was wondering if anyone else appreciated that. The role of the tortured restauranteer was like nothing I'd ever seen. I've used the "deceptively flat" line since hearing this many years ago, not because anyone has the foggiest idea what I'm talking about, but just because I enjoy remembering that sketch. It's tough to find a better blend of timing, vocal inflections, body movement and that level of writing. That's some serious commitment.
