He was also in "The Sheepman" with Glenn Ford, if I'm not mistaken. He was fantastic. And Groucho knew exactly how to interview him to show all his talent. Two great pros at work.
You know, when I first saw you in a film I thought you looked familar and now I know why. I also think its kind of funny because I used to watch all these movies with your grandpa like rio bravo and the high and the mighty with my grandpa as a kid, now I'm watching movies with my own family that star you.
@ciao4689 it's fans like yourself that makes what we do all worth while. Thank you for making me smile and warming my heart with that one! Have a great holliday!
What impeccable comic timing! I went looking for this video because somebody who saw the original remembered it and was telling me about it. I guess he was like the Susan Boyle of 1953. I had no idea we had a Mexican American Cantinflas this early in the history of television.
@LEIMALOCCA Actually if you watch the entire segment with Mr. Gonzalez we see Groucho laugh at least twice. The entire thing is on YouTube at /watch?v=C0mucg6nN_g
My gosh!!! You're like his TWIN!!! I love your work and I love how proud you are of your Mexican roots! Yo tambien soy mexicana, soy de Monterrey! VIVA MEXICO!!!!
@SlovakSpazz he didn't teach me those moves, but he did get me and my cousin tap dancing at the age of 7. Check out DEEZ BLUES video I also shot n directed. Theres a lil hoofing in that, but nothing like grandpa! Thanks for that !
Hi Primo - I am sorry we haven't met but we share a Tia (Virginia) and many other Garcia/Gonzalez relatives in San Antonio. Thanks for posting these. Pete Haney brought some clips to the last Garcia reunion and we all belly laughed! It's so wonderful the family had an impact on early Mex-Am theater with La Carpa Garcia and later, TV/film with Pedro's great work and of course your stellar career in Hollywood! I applaud your efforts to revere and advance Hispanics in film! --Monica Garcia Brooks
Cliff, your Grandpa's appearance was probably THE most remembered appearance by ANYONE in all the years of this long-lived program. I remember hearing The Duke talk about him with fondness a long time ago. Is it true he started with one house and ended up owning the entire neighborhood?
@arew234 haha, wow, yes that is pratically true. Owned a whole block w apartments on it, and two houses across the street form his own hom ein Culver city. Thank u so much for that message ! Did u work w Duke ?
