ARGUMENT
I think that you have to be a great actor to play the part which is interpreting Rowan Atkinson because everything is about the character. Lots of characters have different traits and Mr. Bean is just one of this sitcoms that are really funny. “Why do I like Mr.Bean so much?” is because I respect Rowan Atkinson a lot and it must be incredibly hard to make people laugh when you're not allowed to talk especially when he is known for his wit and sarcasm in “Black Adder”. I admire the makers and actors for trying to do a modern day silent film idea. I also thought that the idea was lost in the cartoon, and too 'Americanised' in the film ,but the TV series was more suited for the style and feel of it.
Mr Bean it has it's roots in old silent film type comedy. To me, he always seems like a form of Charlie Chaplin because the humour is visual and character based rather than words. Also, I think there is a naivety and childish nature to him that makes him quite endearing. A child,puppet, cartoon character can get away with lots more without it seeming rude or offensive because it is coming from a 'naive' source and that's what Mr Bean seems like to me. I also like that Mr. Bean doesn't respect the elderly, or children, or guys, or,basically anyone . Just a childish, egotistical man who only cares about himself.
I think that Mr. Bean is more popular with kids but also loved by adults too. Rowan Atkinson who interprets Mr. Bean is a good person with large experience about life which I think that is the reason that make him so “special”,no one else could ever be like him, he
