One of a class actor who didn't even care being considered the best. He was really and honestly concerned about injustice, hunger, climate change, ecc. and gave millions to charity. R.I.P Marlon you will always be unique and you will be always missed.

Again, I agreed with you. As Richard Burton in his diary states, "He is a genuinely good man...he is intelligent. He has depth. It's no accident that he is such a compelling actor. He puts on acts of course and pretends to be vaguer than he is. Very little misses him as I've noticed."

He was a treasure. There was an almost primevil rawness and realness he gave to each character he portrayed. He would attach you to a character and leave his insides out for you to really get a good look and feel for. He was a master at his craft.

What's so fascinating about Brando's acting is that when you see him on screen you are shocked. You feel as if this guy is actually enacting to a reaction or a moment exactly the way you would in real life. And then he walks away from the spotlight which makes you furious. He is the biggest acting giant. All the other great actors Pacinos, Deniros, Nicholsons, Hoffmans and the new generation are like his sincere and obedient followers.

Marlon, would mock the all important role as an actor he was. Marlon looked at his job no more greater than a carpenter. He really put things in perspective he was truly a humble, sensitive, caring, humorous kind of guy that is still so fresh to hear today. I truly wish there were more people like him.

Brando and another hero of mine Orson Welles were two forces Hollywood couldnt tame. Can you imagine these two egos collaborating? What I get from early Brando is his search for truth; and what I get from the older narcissistic Brando (ie in "Tango") is his disappointment in finding or not finding it. His cinematic epilogue for me was in "Apocalypse Now": he rewote his dialogue & persuaded Coppola to focus the camera on Brando massaging his skull, symbolisng for me his inner & artistic torment

Timeless means never out of date. Because of his acting genius, Brando was able to go inside of his roles and brought each of them vividly to life. Thus, his performance is timeless whether you would watch them 50 years ago or you watch them now. They remain real, truthful and convincing. Here is specifically referred to Brando's performance in the movies; not the movies themselves because some movies may not be as good as his performance.

Also, people didn't realize he was a very serious actor until he realized movie was not art but dictated by market force. He must feel disappointed that those arty films (The Fugitive Kind, Burn!, Reflections in A Golden Eye) he acted in 60's were not well-received. Also, lesser actors became more esteemed because box office success while they didn't have his talent. This realization may have prompted his early retirement. A true talent was wasted in a movie-making business. It's too bad.

Mickey Rourke really took what Marlon did and ran with it. He isn't a stage actor and that's a point against him and a point for Marlon. If you look at Michael Madsens style it's a pure school of Brando method. Ryan Gosling also seems to exhibit acting traits a la Brando. But Rourke is the closest.

All the actors before Marlon were either wooden, unemotional, stoic, or they over-acted and weren't believable. Marlon showed how to act truthfully. It does bother me, though, when they go off script. I think it's rather selfish on their part to dismiss the written art of someone else. It should be recognized as a convergence of art (the director, the camera man, the lighting people, the scene artist, make up artist, sound people, editor, etc...) Some scripts are so well written, you would think that it's all improvised, like "The Big Lebowski". But the actors all said every word of that was scripted. I think Marlon did like some writers, but guys like Robert Downey Jr., that dude hates every script he's ever been given, and he makes up his own lines.

Brando could be difficult but there was also a method to his madness. He knew that a director could easily butcher his performance in the editing room. So why put himself through it when it probably wasn't going to end up in the final cut anyway? Much easier & more practical just to indicate. But with the directors he respected (Kazan, Lumet, Bertoluchi, Coppola), he trusted them & was therefore willing to put himself through the ringer that giving a great performance requires.

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

The performances it looked to me like he was indicating w/o any inner life were Moritori, Don Juan De Marco, The Chase, the Score, Guys and Dolls. Sayonara is interesting cause I think that performance was more indicative of the course acting would take rather than Streetcar or Waterfront. In Sayonara, he has a relaxed naturalism I don't see in his previous performances. And yet I don't think it has the depth of character he achieved in earlier performances (also indicative of modern acting).

You tried to frame MB in two extremes, which is form of explaining things. But what you stated is generalization which may not withstand further scrutiny. For example, how you know he didn't have empathy for others, considering his dedication to American Indian causes? He was addictive to food, more a form of illness than choice. At his prime when his libido was high, he had all the women in the world throwing themselves to him, it must be hard to turn them down (was this womanizer?).

MacDonald hits it right on the head. Brando is actually speaking to the crowd, not making a great speech. Julius Caesar is a really good play. But Mankiewicz film of the play has some real problems with it. First, the casting of Caesar, I mean what was he thinking. Second, Mason is not up to Brando and Gielgud. Finally, Mankiewicz never could shoot action or spectacle e.g. Cleopatra. Its a shame since its the last big American production of the play on film.
