You jest surely. Strasberg taught both of them how to act. Plus, De Niro acted in italian...

Strasberg did not teach Brando how to act. If you are going to credit anyone with that credit Stella Adler, and later, perhaps Elia Kazan. Anyway, you are certainly in the minority if you believe Lee Strasberg and Robert DeNiro better actors than Marlon Brando, who is usually listed as either the greatest, or at least top three greatest actors of all time. Brando's performance as Vito Corleone outshines every other performance in that series. He was incredible. His body language, how he uses items nonchalantly. Everything about that performance was incredible.
Not to discredit DeNiro or Strasberg, who are both certainly great actors, but to say that they are greater actors on the whole, than Marlon Brando is ridiculous. And to say that their performances were better than Brando's in the series is almost blasphemy. Brando>>>DeNiro>>Strasberg. |

Well, since you can't really measure the quality of a performance, we'll just have to agree to disagree.

I voted Star Wars, obviously. All 6 movies owned like a fat man owns a box of Krispy Kremes.
