    CANTINFLAS
    The Mexican actor Mario Moreno (1911-93) created the comedy character Cantinflas, who became famous throughout the Spanish-speaking world. Like Charlie Chaplin, Cantinflas was the small penniless man with a big heart and great social aspirations. He wore a raincoat, twisted his moustache, and babbled on (sometimes incoherently) in a language of his own inspired by popular speech. Cantinflas featured in many films, but he is best known outside the Spanish-speaking world for playing Passepartout to David Niven's Phileas Fogg, in “Around the World in Eighty Days” (1957).

    PELADO A stock figure in Mexican theatre and film, the pelado is a kind of rural anti-hero cum lovable rogue who survives by his quick wits in the foreign environment of the city. The Mexican actor and comedian Mario Moreno (1911-94) based the character Cantinflas, for which he is famous all over the Spanish-speaking world, on the pelado. The pelado is closely related to the literary figure of the pícaro and forms part of a long line of anti-heroic characters in Hispanic literature.

    CARPA In Mexico a carpa is a travelling show held under a big top. Originating in the nationalistic aftermath of the Mexican revolution, carpas toured agricultural communities and mining towns offering a menu of satire, slapstick humour, dramatic sketches and humorous monologues, as well as acrobatics, tightrope walking and other circus entertainments. It was in the carpa that the Mexican comic character, Cantinflas, started life.
