The Face of Pagliacci
Kirk Douglas
He has the face of Pagliacci, sometimes the mercurial masks of comedy or tragedy. He could have been a fantastic actor. He can be handsome or ugly or look like an innocent child. When his hair is long he reminds me of Beethoven. Sometimes Kirk Douglas. He has the head of a lion. His mouth has the square lower lip of comic book heroes. I never tire of looking at his face.
And if he has the face of Pagliacci, he also has the heart.
Placido Domingo as Pagliacci

Cool!
OK - now show us a picture of Ruben's big, warm smile with that twinkle in his eye.....you know- that look on his face when he is dancing a fast milonga with you.
Nancy,
Is this enough twinkle for you?
Oh yeah!
