[@elijahalbiston]

Coppola somehow managed to pull two iconic performances out of Brando, I have no idea how

[@brandothecatmeow]

John Goodman's description of him is perfect. The truth, he knew it better than anyone. "He was good at humanity" sums up why Brando was such a good actor too. He knew human nature at its very core and depth. He went places 99.9% of people would never go because it was too painful. He took that pain for all of us and made brilliance out of it. His life growing up was really fucked up and he used all of that pain to his advantage. Watch the documentary on him Listen to me Marlon, it will make you understand him more and exactly what Billy Zane is talking about is featured as well.

[@romanclay1913]

Marlon Brando is the greatest actor because of his unmatched acting range. From 1950-60 he played a paraplegic in THE MEN, Stanley Kowalski in A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE, a Mexican revolutionary in VIVA ZAPATA, Mark Anthony, a Hell's Angel in THE WILD ONE, 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.

[@el.aye.bee.4477]

I was still in high school and doing English Lit way back in the early '80s (Shakespeare: "Julius Caesar," my favorite of all of Shakespeare's works, and "The Merchant of Venice") when one day, I stumbled upon "Julius Caesar" on the television, quite by accident. To this day, it's still my favorite film adaptation of any of Shakespeare's works, too, and Marlon Brando was ridiculous in the movie. I always replay scenes of that movie in my head and wonder to myself if anybody ever remembers him being in that movie and I never hear anyone mention it. You are a rare one. LOL!

[@sorayaraza5827]

His mum Alexander him to play Shakespeare. Luckily she was alive when he was in this, but died just before his 1st Oscar, sadly.

[@romanclay1913]

@@sorayaraza5827 Dorothy Pennebaker Brando. She acted in community theater in Nebraska and encouraged a callow Henry Fonda. Brando really loved her but felt her alcoholism diminished their relationship. He felt by performing it would reunite them. He would have her go over his film scripts and took on Mark Anthony because of her passion for Shakespeare. When she passed away after ON THE WATERFRONT, Brando went into a brief eclipse. But how he felt about Dorothy is obvious. When Brando formed his own production company, he named it, PENNEBAKER PRODUCTIONS.

[@barflytom3273]

Roman Clay I can not believe you didn't include Las Tango in Paris. His best acting in my opinion, after Streetcar.

Kudos to Chris Reeve who was the only actor I saw who ever publicly called Brando out for phoning it in in later in his career. "Waste of talent because at one point he stopped caring" he said... SPOT ON.. Odd though even when Marlon was phoning it in you cant take your eyes off him...

[@Kareragirl]

Dick Cavett actually told him that when he was interviewing him, that he felt like Brando was robbing people of his talent with his choices. I think many people felt that way. What a unique gift, but he frowned upon it like it was a bad thing to get people to marvel at something.

[@GuineaPigEveryday]

Edward Norton also said that, and he described it in a really good way, he was respectful but also admitted that Brando just got greedy, got lazy, turned way arrogant. And seriously read up on his 70s work and after, it was so much arrogance on the set, like a diva. But according to Norton, Brando said that during A Streetcar named Desire he was still just a normal kid with a nomral life and the buzz hadn't hit him that much yet, but afterwards he was sitting on a mountain of candy. I do find it annoying that people don't want to admit the massive faults with this dude, because seriously unless your a major movie buff, most ppl know him from the works where he was the most arrogant in. And it took me a while to find out why he thought he deserved to be so arrogant, and now I can appreciate his influence on acting, at least early on in his career.

[@yourthaiguy]

@@GuineaPigEveryday very well put…

[@atlebakke]

@@GuineaPigEveryday 100%! People live to mention his late, late work, mostly cause of Island of Moreau and his looka, but it started way earlier, already in the 70s he didn't seem to give a f and would purposefully disrupt takes etc. I've read so much about him, and in biographies etc there are many, many quotes showing he just didn't care about movies anymore (if he ever really did) and looked at filmmaking as ridiculous. As he told Fairuzo Balk when she asked for tips about her characters motivation during Moreau: "You're getting paid for this, right? So who cares?" I agree with everything you say, and I'd be interested to know: you say that eventually you found out why Brando thought he deserved to behave so arrogantly.

Most of the people who worked with Brando say that he could snap into character in an instant. NPR had an interview with Francis Ford Coppola where he talked about meeting him for the beginnings of The Godfather and he spoke about his ability to transform and how amazing it was. Short term memory has some effect on talent but if you can instantly act truthfully, knowing lines beforehand is of little consequence because the work will still be good.

[@harpoon_bakery162]

@@sarahmitchell5206 Perhaps most Hollywood have ear-pieces. Learning lines and memorization is reserved for the very smartest... there's just no way the normal person can remember that much, it's impossible. Like how many lines could one remember, you are eventually going to forget them if there are delays in shooting. So then you would have to tell the director that you need to go back to your trailer and start learning again and perhaps you have been assigned a memorization coach by Metro Goldwyn-Meyer and in your contract you have stipulations for ear-pieces. But remembering lines is just impossible.
