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.

A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE has the two greatest performances put on film: Vivien Leigh as Blanche DuBois and Marlon Brando as Stanley Kowalski.

One of his later performances was in SUPERMAN: THE MOVIE as the Man of Steel’s genetic father, Jor-El. Once he knew what his character was supposed to look like, he actually thought it would make sense for him to wear the same symbol on his chest that Superman would later wear.

Brando also filmed all of his scenes intended for SUPERMAN II, even though they weren’t used until the Richard Donner Cut in 2006.

Of course, one of Brando’s best performances was in THE GODFATHER as Vito Corleone. Despite winning an Oscar for his performance, he refused it due to Hollywood’s inaccurate portrayals of Native Americans.
