      It is as same as like Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin has done 5 Talkies, but He has always been famous worldwide for the Role of a Tramp from the Era of the Silent Movies. When you can Act to deliver the Story and the Emotions without having to use a particular Language, You are Actually Breaking the Language Barrier and Suddenly Your reach to Your Audience increases to an Unimaginable Extant. Generally people remember An Actor with a character which they find to be more Fascinating and more Relatable to Them. It may be Sir Marlon Brando as Don Vito Corleone Or Sir Heath Ledger as the Joker Or Sir RDJ as the Iron Man and These are just to name a Few. But yeah,I do believe that Sir Rowan Atkinson should get Knighted ASAP for His Immense, Immeasurable and Incalculable Contribution in the Field of Art and Cinema.He deserves It.
