People visit an exhibition of cartoon caricature art of characters made famous by Roberto Gomez Bolanos, the late Mexican writer and comedian who wrote and played the boy television character El Chavo that defined a generation for millions of Latin American children, in Mexico City, Thursday, August 17, 2017. Gomez, known as “Chespirito” (chess-pee-REE-to), or Little Shakespeare, changed comedy in Latin America, taking his inspiration from Laurel and Hardy as well as Cantinflas, Mexico's other transcendent comedian who eventually made it to Hollywood.
