That’s sad. And here in Mexico, Beto el Boticario died too! He was one of the funniest guys on T.V.

It does seem like one of those years.

JH’s movie themes remain universal. It’s too bad he left this world so soon. May he rest in peace.

I sometimes think his brand of comedy has been crowded out by the inane (e.g. Dumb and Dumber et al) and the plethora of special effects films that now dominate the American market.
