Question from readers:
Are there any celebrities you think are geniuses?
Encounters with Geniuses
Recently, I was discussing with friends, “Which celebrities do you think are geniuses?” and a variety of names came up. It was fascinating to hear everyone’s opinions, and as a comedy lover, I couldn’t help but smile when names like Charles Chaplin and Danny DeVito were mentioned. Their
works always make me laugh, and there are moments that can even bring me to tears. Comedy is not just about making people laugh; it carries heartfelt messages, making it truly profound.
Memorable Episodes
I recall a time when I watched a Chaplin film with a friend. His silent films convey emotions and movements in a direct way due to the absence of dialogue. That day, my friend claimed he wasn’t a fan of comedy, but eventually, he couldn’t hold back his laughter, and we ended up laughing together. It’s those moments that make comedy irresistible. And we can’t forget the musical geniuses. Listening to Jimi Hendrix and Chuck Berry’s guitar makes my heart race. Their music has something beyond mere melody. The first time I heard Hendrix’s guitar solo was shocking; I replayed it so many times that I almost felt like I had overeaten and was suffering from a stomach ache!
The Charm of Each Talent
Names like Bando Tsumasaburo and Fujiko F. Fujio also came up in our conversation. What stands out in their works is their unique perspective and humor. I have always loved Fujiko F. Fujio’s “Doraemon” since childhood, and I still revisit it occasionally. Reading it as an adult reveals different aspects of humor, making it enjoyable time and again. Recently, I’ve been watching “Doraemon” more often with my child, and it’s genuinely fun. Just seeing my child laugh brings me happiness, and it makes me appreciate parenting even more. Sometimes, when my child asks, “Daddy, what does this mean?” it turns into a fun time, even while I rack my brain for the answer.
