Mario Moreno is considered the greatest comedian in the history of Mexican cinema. His career as a performer began with the traveling circus of Mexico City, and his film career began in 1936. He developed the comedic persona of Cantinflas several years before achieving fame in 1940. All of his performances satirized the class struggle of Mexico, as he used his on-screen persona to depict the plight of the campesino in humorous ways. He was also famous for his unique use of language, word-play, and entendre. As a philanthropist off-screen, he made great contributions in support of the poor and labor unions. He died in Mexico City in 1993. He continues to be loved and admired by all of Latin America.
