The master of painting a picture and communicating through silence, Charlie Chaplin was the best. Well written, my friend. Good luck in the contest! Bill

the perfect description of Charlie Chaplin...he was indeed much like a mannequin. He was iconic in his generation; I've read he was a brilliant and articulate man, despite his silent image. Wonderful job, Mr. Sotto!
