Heard this once said: Caine played his character as a very straight human, while Tim Curry played his character in Muppet's Treasure Island like he's himself an unhinged muppet. To the credit of both of these actors, it works perfectly in their respective movies.
Someone described respectful ways of interacting with children similarly
you can bring yourself down to their level, or you can bring them up to yours. Both are respectful, and there's no "talking down" to anyone.
Bringing yourself to their level is real neat.
