Los Angeles, April 21: Actor Russell Crowe started appreciating mime after he saw the performance of Marcel Marceau, an internationally acclaimed French actor and mime artist. But clarifies that he has "never intentionally performed a mime".
"Something that causes much mirth among acquaintances is that the first time I ever went to the theatre was to see mime artist Marcel Marceau," contactmusic.com quoted Crowe as saying.
"It's the truth, and I loved it. He was at the top of his game. But just for clarity, I have never intentionally performed a mime," he added.
Russell, 49, also admitted his love for films as a child, and recalled sneaking into an afternoon show of "Papillon".
