He was French and so that's all you need to speak ill of him. Here's a bit of his bio...

Marcel Mangel (stage name Marcel Marceau) was born on March 22, 1923, in Strasbourg, Alsace, France. He changed his family name to Marceau when his Jewish family was forced to flee their home at the beginning of the Second World War. His father, a kosher butcher, was deported to Auschwitz, where he was killed in 1944. Both Marceau and his brother Alain were in the French underground, helping children to escape to safety in neutral Switzerland. Then Marceau served as interpreter for the Free French Forces under General Charles de Gaulle.

What in your life compares to this?

I am NOT a fan of pantomime but was a fan of Marceau. A true artist and a French original.
