Marlon Brando (house, single, American, title, reviews)

[i get high sometimes]

these are what i consider to be his finest performances. probably the greatest actor that has ever lived.


Last Tango in Paris- Here he is talking to his wife in her coffin, after she commited suicide



On the Waterfront- This scene is pretty complicated, and I think you have to know the context to really appreciate it, but I'll explain it best I can. Here Brando's brother (in the film) is trying to convince Brando not to rat out the mob boss controlling the docks, by offering him a high paying job on the docks. Brando is an ex-boxer who lost the title fight purposely because his brother was using him to make money through bets, and asked him to throw the title. I don't know if it is in this clip, but notice how Brando just pushes the gun out of the way after Steiger points it at him. Subtle things like that make Brando so great.



Streetcar Named Desire- After a drunken fit he threw in which his wife left him to stay with the neighbor
