(I\u2019m thinking here primarily of George Clooney, say, and his delightful <a title=\"Ranking Coen Brothers Movies\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/ranking-coen-brothers-movies\/\" target=\"_blank\">ongoing association with the Coen Brothers<\/a>) While it was tempting to cite Humphrey Bogart\u2019s jolly hippo impression from <em>The African Queen (see above)<\/em>, I\u2019m going to get with this daffy moment from <a title=\"Charade on DVD\/Blu-ray\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/siteSearch.asp?search=charade\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><em>Charade<\/em><\/a>. Cary Grant spends the entire movie keeping Audrey Hepburn on edge about who he really is; this comic moment seals the greatness of director Stanley Donen\u2019s witty, cosmopolitan thriller with a tone-twisting gesture of pure, unadulterated silliness.<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center;\">4.

Dreyfuss\u2019 nerdy and courageous character Matt Hooper hasn\u2019t been at sea so very long with Great White Fisherman Quint (Robert Shaw) when he\u2019s pushed past his limits by the salty sea dog\u2019s condescending taunts\u2014leading to this riotous bit of pantomime he executes while Quint\u2019s back is turned. If there\u2019s a runner-up \u201cfunny face\u201d moment in this film\u2014if way more subtle\u2014it would have to be Chief Brody\u2019s (Roy Scheider) Buster Keaton-esque stone face of fear after Bruce the Shark makes his first terrifying appearance in close-up (\u201cCome on down here and chum some of this sh*t!\u201d).

A great \u201cfunny face\u201d moment can also belong to a much more serious film, as well as to an Oscar-winning performance. Based on Mark Medoff\u2019s Tony Award-winning play, <a title=\"Children of a Lesser God on DVD\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D19654%20%20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><em>Children of a Lesser God<\/em><\/a> takes a unique place in this listicle for being a film all about the challenges of communication\u2014whether that communication is taking place using speech, hand gesture, facial expression, or the most intimate bonding between lovers. Here, Matlin\u2019s character Sarah Norman, a deaf young woman working as a janitor at a New England school for the deaf, has just been dragged into the classroom of the speech pathologist played by William Hurt. She has no interest whatsoever in learning how to speak rather than sign, but Hurt has persuaded the school\u2019s principal (a longtime mentor-of-sorts, played by Philip Bosco) to relieve her of her duties long enough to spend an hour\u2019s time with Hurt in his class. Bosco condescendingly asks her: <em>You\u2019re really looking forward to this, aren\u2019t you, Sarah? <\/em>Her priceless reaction is this mocking face. <em>Yes, pant pant, I\u2019m your <\/em>dog.<\/p>\n<p><em>Children of a Lesser God<\/em> is one of the\u00a0more beautiful stories about empathy ever filmed,\u00a0dramatizing how truly difficult it can be to relocate your perspective to better identify with another\u2019s. Sometimes it\u2019s as simple as making a well-chosen funny face to illustrate how out of touch even well-meaning people can be.<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center;\">1.

Most fans probably already know that Harpo Marx\u2019s famous nutter of an expression originated from time he spent in his youth observing a neighborhood cigar roller, who would scrunch up his visage into something resembling this baroque and vaguely painful-looking creation. Hard to believe this is exactly what <em>any<\/em> human being would do \u201cnaturally\u201d when absorbed in <em>any <\/em>menial task, but there you have it; it\u2019s a well-established part of the Marx legend. Harpo \u201ctosses a Gookie\u201d (the name is a variation on Gehrke, the cigar roller\u2019s name) all the time in the Brothers\u2019 films, so it\u2019s pretty hard to pick a favorite. If pressed, I might choose the gookie from <a title=\"Duck Soup in the Marx Brothers Silver Screen Collection on DVD\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D15689&amp;altid=85476\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><em>Duck Soup<\/em><\/a> (the first Marx film I saw), which he brings forth during an elaborately choreographed confrontation he and Chico get into with peanut vendor Edgar Kennedy.
