***** Then your style would be pre-Brando. Acting in movies before the 50s was the same as acting in the theatre. It was acting from the outside in, more heightened, and more indicative. Method acting is all about acting from the inside out: truthful experiences under imaginary circumstances. So most of the actors Brando worked with in movies (that weren't trained the same way he was) were trained in the more traditional school of acting.

Although Cavett denies the label, Brando,a genius, sat toe to toe with another genius, while they weren't equal, they were complementary and equivalent. It's no wonder Brando all but retired for so long. He must have grown tired of waiting for we mere mortals to keep up! But Cavett could give and take equally with him. What a treat!
@lynnturman81579 жыл бұрын
This clip speaks volumes as to WHY Brando was such a great actor: observation. Like all great actors, he was a keen observer of human nature. The way he succintly describes EXACTLY what Cavett is thinking and feeling (that made Cavett so uncomfortable as if he was naked) is proof of that.
@NostalgiNorden8 жыл бұрын
No you missed the entire point of what he was saying. It's not becuse of observation which would imply that acting is just mimicing other people. It's not. He is talking about our inner life and our inner monolouges that goes around in our head all the time. We are always acting. Very rarely are we totally honest. Everytime you have an interaction with someone you want something out of the situation and the way we act is one of the tools we use to get what we want. Brando did not mimic other people. He was trained by Stella Adler and always used himself in every part.
@lynnturman81578 жыл бұрын
NostalgiNorden I'm talking about his skills as an observer. All great actors are observers of human behavior. And the fact that Brando was observing Cavett so closely is evidence of that. What that fact has to do with mimicry, I don't know. I do agree with you also that Brando used himself in his parts. That's something I think all great actors do. Especially American trained "method" actors.

The audience and interviewer is annoying. Marlon Brando was hitting an important point. We do act as a survival mechanism. Acting as a profession may be to harness that skill but he's 100% correct that acting is something we do every day. The interviewer actually says "I was motivated" which is Marlon's point. What do actor's ask? "What's my motivation"? Acting as a profession is harnessing what we do every day. This is a brilliant explanation by Brando. I just wish it didn't go over these people's heads.

Damn. I grew up hearing Brando's name just like any other old star. But this Brando I see here is truly brilliant. He's doing what I've many times wished I could do in front of a huge, hypnotized audience. Blow the whole thing up, tear it down, and show you something far more interesting: a living human being with no bottom or boundary to their living experience, refusing to be smoothed out, honestly engaging with the discomfort and vagaries of existence. This guy went there.

The reason why this guy was so nervous was because Brando was laying out there so clearly. Every day I see and hear people reacting to media and entertainment personalities and I don't understand how they don't get that it's an act. How is it that the guys on Sports Talk Radio almost always end up on opposite sides of an argument? How is it that they manage to always upset the callers? Same thing with bloggers, how is it that they seem to always be able to upset people? It's because they know how to do it. It's because they're calculated in a way. And the last thing they want is for people to realize that it's an act. Brando is here talking about this guy as a performer and this guy is desperately thinking: "what are you doing don't let them in on it." It behooves him to come off as the genuine, funny, nice guy. But Brando breaks it down in a calm, sophisticated way. And that's why he starts to squirm. I wish people were more like this nowadays.

@Raikaska I agree that it can be sad to have that happen unknowingly. But even if all the cards were on the table as it were... Personality would still exist to facilitate communication. Even a lie can be a positive thing if the end result is communicating the truth. If every one knew and understood perhaps even assumed that every exchange would involve acting to facilitate understanding, then we might even be criticized for being lazy in our acting. In a way, I think Brando is even saying as much. That it should be a given everyone uses acting to facilitate effective communication. And that as a TV interviewer and media personality that Dick should be very talented as an actor to be effective.

One thing that stuck out for me on the second viewing was his demonstration of putting on an appearance, for example, resting on your knees and appealing to your boss. But later on in the interview, what does Brando do? The commercial break ends and we see him resting on his knees, and hurriedly leans back against the seat: basically, the most honest part of the interview, telling us that it's all a gag. In another interview, Brando talked about the ethical importance of opening up a dialogue with all of the production's employees, including the director, actors, editor, and the functional role of the camera itself. The man was advocating for a dialectic (that is, a dialogue-based pathway to Truth) on the very phenomenon of image production. And what happened to him in the end? He gets labelled a madman. If losing your mind is a form of death, I consider this man a martyr.

Intelligent, well-read, articulate, very funny, brave while being self-deprecatory at the same time. He was far from a moron. Now, all folks, great and small, do moronic things. Such as the time Marlon Brando trotted out a "native American princess" to accept his Oscar. But that didn't make him less than a great actor. I don't think Brando takes Cavett down at all. Cavett manages to provoke Brando in an intelligent way that leads to an interesting discussion. And I'm glad he did!

maelcaha Please educate yourself before you speak about certain historical events. Marlon Brandon did not have a "Native American princess" accept his award on his behalf. He boycotted the Academy Awards that year because of how the industry had been treating Native Americans. He sent Sachseen Littefeather to the ceremony to publicly share a letter that Marlon had written explaining that he could not accept the Best Actor award and his reasons for that decision. However, the academy would not let her share the letter because they deemed it "inappropriate". She instead spoke briefly about the cause which Marlon was supporting and she was booed by some of the audience members. Despite this, she continues to speak confidently and raised awareness about a very important issue. This was not "moronic". This was both courageous and respectable for both Marlon and Sachseen. Not only was Marlon one of the greatest actors who ever lived, he was also a genuine and caring human being who had morals. We need more actors like him, especially in this day and age.

To me, he was a goofy, bloviating mess of a host. He always came off as condescending and fake. This interview shows that. Great interviewers know when to shut up. Great interviewers understand nuance and how to ask compelling questions that evoke heartfelt answers. Carson was a great interviewer. Ironically, in this instance, it was Cavett's dim-wittedness that evoked one of the most honest assessments of life and acting from Brando. For good or bad, we're all actors on this grand stage called life.

The world is a stage, we are all actors playing our role in the world, you either choose it or someone else will do if for you. Are you playing the character you want in the world?

Marlon Brando seems to have been absolutely fascinated with other people. I believe that he was good at acting because he knew not what else to do but imitate. His demeanor is playful to draw out the more real sides of his interlocutors so that he can learn how they tick. Brilliant.

Method acting is exactly not about. Imitating.

What Brando says here makes sense to me. Acting is a survival mechanism, and the key is to use that instinct on stage, when reading a paper, when doing a scene, when improvising, whatever. That's how I act aswell, I focus on these steps, to just put in what I do when I lie, or to put in what I do when I want to behave differently socially, stuff like that.

I believe everything he is saying about acting. To not act, is simply impossible. Everyone is acting according to a script, whether it's who you are as your name, your role as a worker, a citizen-- it goes on.
