Celandine Registered: 01/18/04 Posts: 14264 Loc: SopranoLand	Jonathan Winters wasn't known for either slapstick or stand-up as much as improv. If you're familiar with Robin Williams ...their style was strikingly similar. ...so much so, that Winters even played Robin's SON, of all things, early in Robin's career in "Mork & Mindy" "Nannu Nannu!" Jonathan & Robin, together at last _________________________ . "...or am I a butterfly dreaming she's a woman?"

LOL According to him, it was t'other way 'round... ...he picked up the noises, faces & mannerisms from the natives...then exaggerated them. Which, btw, is the same thing W.C. Fields sed. _________________________ . "...or am I a butterfly dreaming she's a woman?"

MrB I invented modding! Registered: 08/28/03 Posts: 7809 Loc: SE Kansas	Robin Williams has said that he modeled his style after Winters. I loved Winters. A great comic. Dave _________________________ There are 10 kinds of people. Those that understand binary and those that don't.
