      Yes Marlon Brando was such a great actor but it makes me sad that there's a very good chance that he may have used his money and influence to do some terrible things to his two ex-wives .
      There's a vid here somewhere where the husband of one of those women is talking about how Marlon convinced a doctor to say she had psychiatric problems and was mentally unfit to be the mother ... and that's how he was able to get custody of the kids and also have her put on harsh psychiatric drugs she should never have been on .
      We see later the horrible tragedy with his beautiful daughter Cheyenne and his son Chris .
      Perhaps if he had not taken them from their mother when they were so young , perhaps things would have turned out differently ?
      When it came to his two wives it seems he didn't care what he had to do to win against them even if it meant destroying these women .
      I feel sorry for them and those two women both seem so innocent

    The thing about heroes is that we tend to put them on a pedestal because they are celebrities (actors, singers, artists and so on). Most of the time if we meet them in person they are extremely disappointing. That is not their fault, it is our fault for placing them on that same pedestal. Our true heroes should be our parents, teachers and our friends and family who have helped to guide us through this thing called life.
    Just saying!

      Maybe he was realizing a lot of it was his fault because he had taken those kids away from their mother when they were young and according to the woman's husband in a video somewhere he explains that Marlon was able to steal custody of those kids by getting a doctor to lie and say she had mental illness and was therefore unfit to be a mother for them and also they put her on harsh drugs she didn
      't even need . 😢
      Maybe he realized how his being so conniving and underhanded ... and having to win at any cost may have somehow interfered with those kids having a more normal life .
      With all his making movies when they were growing up and getting them away from their mother ... who did he have watching these kids when he wasn't around making films ?

      I totally agree with you on that. Marlon Brando was a huge activist & even backed out of a movie "The Arrangement" with his favorite director, Elia Kazan to raise awareness & support Dr Martin Luther King's foundation. He suggested that everyone in the acting world donate 1% of their total annual income to keep M.L.K. foundation going. Brando donated 10% of his annual income. Brando also supported American Indian's by giving them a parcel of land owned by him to the American Indian's. Brando had a huge heart when it came to people who were disadvantaged or hurting. There will never be another Marlon Brando, at least in this lifetime. He had the face of a poet & the body of a prize fighter. In other words, he was uber gorgeous & is the greatest actor in film/cinema history.

    11:00 During a play, Brando was scratching himself which was distracting from the actresses performance. So she went to him and hit him with a whip that she had for the play.
    He took her by collar and starting slapping her up on stage. She tried to run away from and ran up a stairs on stage that goes to no where with Brando hot on her heals.
    The stairs collapsed and the curtain was drawn and the audience stood up and cheered. They thought it was part of the play.

Terry Malloy in ON THE WATERFRONT, Napoleon in DESIREE, sang and danced in GUYS AND DOLLS, a Japanese man in TEAHOUSE OF THE AUGUST MOON, a contrite nazi in YOUNG LIONS then directed ONE EYED JACKS.

    Such a great great man. We all have our issues. Nobody is a saint on this Earth. We are what we do in life, and Brando could make people feel emotions like very few actors and actresses just by a simple facial expression, or the way he said certain lines. Brando gave films a heart, and an identity all their own, even if thee critics couldn't see it at the time with certain films that were critically panned. Every generation there is one actor that has that same gene for acting that Brando had. In the 70's, and 80's, it was Al Pacino who took that mantle. In the 90's, and 2000's, it was Johnny Depp. What's so great is that even after their primes in Hollywood, they still went strong with some of their greatest roles happening when they were older men who's best work was thought to be long behind them. That's what makes them the GOAT's of acting. The greatest actors and actresses can act in any era of film. They can adapt to changing times, and sell films just by their name, and presence alone on screen.

    Frank Sinatra did NOT have the gorgeous looks that Marlon Brando had & Ava Gardner reportedly went to the set of Guys & Dolls & asked for an introduction to Brando & they did wind up going out together. Comparing Brando & Sinatra is like comparing Caviar to Fast Food. Brando was the most gorgeous guy I've ever seen & also was the greatest actor hands down in the film/cinema history. There's not too many who could ACT like Brando. His facial features are perfect. It was said that Brando had the looks of a poet with a prize fighters body. The trio of the greatest actors were Brando, Montgomery Clift & James Dean but very sadly we lost Monty (age 45) & Dean (age 24) much too early.💔💔 Brando also had a huge heart for the underdog & was a great activist for civil rights & the american indian! Brando even gave them some prime property that he owned releasing his ownership to the land forever. RIP Marlon Brando.🙏💔😥

I don't like Streetcar named Desire, feel for poor Blanche against the brute Stanley Kowalski. Great screen presence, Mr. Brando!

      You start off making good-objective and spot-on assessments of Brando's acting then say you didn't like an entire film because you felt bad for an actor portraying a character who was "treated badly" by Brando (an ACTOR-Acting like a brute). You seem to not realize that Brando's performance was so powerful and moved you so much that you (actually) believed Marlon Brando was treating Vivien Leigh badly. THIS is exactly what GREAT acting is. You need to re-evaluate your thoughts/decision on Street Car.

    • @Tabish29
      @Tabish29 Рік тому +2

      Oh man...this is SO true !!! Where do I start?
      1st of all....let's start with the fact that they both have Irish ancestry. 2nd: They both had a dysfunctional childhood. Brando hated his dad, and Mickey hated his stepfather and had nonrelationship with his biological dad until he met him just once as an adult. 3: Both of them were not known to do hard drugs or alcohol especially Brando (I've heard Mickey wS doing coke in the 80s, but I've not been able to substantiate this). 4: They both had the same face and physique. Patricia Bosworth once quoted someone who said Marlon had the face of a poet and the body of a prize fighter. Also... they both studied at the actors' studio. They both spoke very softly and could snap at the drop of a hat. They both hated Hollywood, acting and actors. They both fell out with Hollywood but rejuvenated their careers. They were both outspoken. They both had troubled private lives. They both boxed. They both chose projects that their hearts were in, especially Mickey. The big difference is that Marlon had dozens of kids, and Mickey was smart enough to have none. Imo Rourke is the closest a thespian ever to cone out who is closest to Brando, especially in terms of raw talent. I say Mickeys actually surpassed Marlon in the talent dept, but it balances out because Brando did theatre and Shakespeare, which Mickey did not.

    • @Tabish29

Nobody gets it perfectly or even close to perfectly right but I don't think he much tried. This kind of sentiment to me is self indulgence that tries to compensate for being so empty inside to those who someone is entrusted to by their own actions, by God and human convention. GREAT actor a good friend to many but so lacking where it really counts in the end. Caring for others is noble but not when your own are neglected and pushed aside as he did..
