Marlon Brando is the best actor there ever was. He’s the master of his craft. Brando can play any character role and make one believe he’s that character. I don’t think I can adequately express his genius talent. I’ve watched every Brando movie since The Wild One in the 50’s since I was a young girl. And I will continue to watch his movies until my demise. I deeply appreciate the gift of his genius talent as an actor to the movie industry.

It's because he didn't want his son to become an actor. Brando's father was an old fashioned man, and acting was seen by many old conservative types as a poor career (not because it couldn't make money, but because it was seen as somewhat demeaning by some people). He did say he was proud of him as a man besides of his career as an actor.

@@NikoChristianWallenberg I think also because Brando was so different from other actors at the time, he was very brash and impulsive. Actors at that time like Cary Grant or Clark Gable were like gentlemen and groomed and perfect and Brando was the anti-thesis I’d that. So maybe his dad meant that.

What I love about Marlon Brando was that he was a true human rights activist. He was the anti establishment that we so need today. He was so much ahead of his time! So diverse! He was kicked out schools and never graduated yet spoke five foreign languages and three fluently! To see Marlon father's dismay his accomplishments just angers me. No wonder Marlon was miserable and his hatred toward acting profession throughout his adulthood. It started from childhood and it was right on television. Despite his personal life with women, I want to say as a woman that you are enough Marlon. Thank you for fighting for the good as your fighting good spirit lives on. Rest in heaven Marlon.

I agree, but considering the context of the interview you have to keep in mind the roles Brando was associated with at that time. The general public thought of him as usually playing guttural thugs who thumbed their noses at authority: street people who were in no sense of the term “respectable”. That was the stereotype of him, despite playing Shakespeare. To that end, I think from Sr’s point of view he felt expressing pride in his son as an actor was tantamount to being proud of what his roles represented to society. By extension, it represented being ashamed of the society those roles seemed to question. In the conservative America of the 1950s, being proud of such roles and the questions they provoked would’ve been a no-no for a “respectable man”.

“Once father and son were together, the tension crackled. When Murrow asked Marlon Senior if he was proud of his son, the older Brando stammered, “Well, as an actor, not too proud, but as a man, why, quite proud.” If things had ended at that point, the tension might have subsided. But then Murrow asked if Marlon had been “hard to handle” as a child. “I think he had the usual childhood traits,” Marlon Senior replied. “I think he had probably a little more trouble with his parents than most children do.” “What did he mean exactly? “Trouble with his parents” because they had been alcoholic and neglectful and abusive? That was certainly one way to interpret Marlon Senior’s words. But it is more likely that the old man’s anxiety had left him imprecise with his prepositions. Certainly that was how his son discerned his intent: the younger Brando had been more trouble FOR his parents than most children. Hearing this, Marlon simmered with one of his Rumpelstiltskin rages, right there on national television-though by now he’d learned to control his actions and his expressions. But the fury was nevertheless there, obvious to anyone who knew him, pulsating beneath the surface, in the twitch of his smile, the quaver of his hands, the intensity of his eyes. “When Marlon scowled, Murrow asked if he wanted to defend himself. “I really don’t feel I need to defend myself,” Marlon said tightly. “I can lick this guy with one hand, so…” He shrugged. “Let it go,” he said, apparently speaking to himself, patting his father’s foot. “LET IT GO. Marlon had been letting it go for a year now. How long could he really keep doing it? How long could he keep up this charade, this bluff? Five years, he’d given himself. Five years, and that he’d have enough money from Pennebaker, from his father’s investments, to escape this madness and do something else. But could he hold out that long? Sitting there, in front of the television cameras, Marlon seemed on the verge of cracking, as if at any moment he’d jump to his feet, punch his father, knock over the cameras, pull down the lighting, yank off his tie, tell the viewers to fuck off, and toss his Oscar straight over the cliff. But he held himself together. Here is where we will leave him this time, fidgeting in his chair, fixing his socks, twisting at the end of his rope.
