I read someplace that Marceau was discovered by Stan Laurel!

I hope numerous films and/or videotapes of his performances were made; otherwise
all of his brilliant material died with him.

Thanks for the links, Brooklyn. The newspaper article about Marceau and Laurel
was interesting, but I don't think Stan ever said "You know my hobby, and I
married them all."

It sounds like a joke he might say but who knows for sure. I guess
you'll need to ask James Bacon.
