Remembering Marlon Brando

WONDERFUL ACTOR

''THE GODFATHER''OH how I remember this epic film that sort of saved BRANDOS'career.The film ''MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY''failed terribly even though he performed well as the CAPTAIN of the ship.

BRANDO-was born APRIL 23-1924 IN OMAHA ,NEBRASKA.HE grew up though in ILLINOIS.Later moved to NEW YORK to study acting.HE became a big star then his career dropped off some .Then a studio approached him for the GODFATHER role and his career was back on track again.HE was a actor for fifty years.A few movies he did were---A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE,THE GODFATHER,THE WILD ONE,ON THE WATERFRONT winning a oscar for the GODFATHER.A great actor I feel his talents by the critics were underated and unfair for MR.BRANDO was indeed a master of the craft of acting.
