I always thought he was the greatest comedic/artists of his time but the problem is he hasn`t been bettered since maybe with the exception of Lewis and later Williams. He had an incredible ability to mimic languages and voices which of course made he a very unique actor. Wow what a voice and range GREAT!.
For those who wish to skip closer to the "Otchi Tchorniya number," try 2:08.
When I first saw this, I thought the sneezing got a little too ridiculous, but before he finished, I became bowled over by how he could instantly slip back into the most sincere and poignant--or powerful--voice and expression, such as at 6:10 and 6:58. It may be my favorite of his comic stage numbers. He leaves me wanting to hear it through once without the sneezing.
