Mrs His impact on screen acting was demonstrated by Academy nominations as best actor in four successive years: as Kowalski in "A Streetcar Named Desire" (1951); as the Mexican revolutionary in "Viva Zapata!" (1952); as Marc Anthony in "Julius Caesar" (1953); and as Terry Malloy in "On the Waterfront" (1954) Her ambitions often were unrealized, and she underwent periods of problem drinking His ego was very secure The cause of death was being withheld, Seeley said, noting the actor "was a very private man He commented softly to members of the Drollet family: "I'm sorry " Instead, he sent a woman who called herself Sasheen Littlefeather to read a diatribe about Hollywood's treatment of Native Americans One hundred pounds heavier, he hired himself out at huge salaries for such commercial enterprises as "Superman" and "Christopher Columbus: The Discovery " The actor followed with "Last Tango in Paris " His crusades for civil rights, the American Indian and other causes kept him in the public eye throughout his career Henry Fonda reluctantly agreed He was expelled , and finally to Libertyville, Ill After a week with the young man, Adler declared: "Within a year, Marlon Brando will be the best young actor in the American theater Young Marlon became exposed to the theater through his mother, a leader and occasional actress in the Omaha Community Playhouse " He was more effective as the insane army officer in Coppola's "Apocalypse Now" and parodying his "Godfather" role in the hit comedy "The Freshman It changed his life "Anyone who denies this never understood what it was all about But audiences were electrified, and a new generation of actors adopted his style In a way, the Mafia is the best example of capitalists we have The family later moved to Santa Ana, Calif Most of his later films were undistinguished Most were commercial enterprises: "Desiree," "Guys and Dolls," "The Teahouse of the August Moon," "Sayonara," "The Young Lions , on April 3, 1924 "But it can't rule me because I'm not afraid of anything and I don't love money He was 80 In May 1990, Brando's first son, Christian, shot and killed Dag Drollet, 26, the Tahitian lover of Christian's half sister Cheyenne, at the family's hilltop home above Beverly Hills She solved it by leading him on a leash " Nothing could diminish his reputation as an actor of startling power and invention Marlon Brando Jr He hated the clamor of fans and suffered through interviews He was sentenced to 10 years Brando also encouraged another young Omaha native, Dorothy McGuire "I think it is about the corporate mind He bought an island, Tetiaroa, which he intended to make part environmental laboratory and part resort In 1960 he married a Mexican actress, Movita, who had appeared in the first "Mutiny on the Bounty He created a naturalism that was sometimes derided for its mumbling, grungy attitudes His image was a studio's nightmare He was a distant, conservative man of French, English and Irish stock; the original family name was Brandeau In his memoir, "Songs My Mother Taught Me," Brando wrote of being emotionally drained by "Last Tango," an improvised film that included several autobiographical speeches The press made much of his motorcycle, leather jackets and T-shirts, his bongo drum playing Jocelyn was charged with getting Bud to kindergarten, a difficult task He was impressive, however, in several movies, among them the comedy "Bedtime Story" and the John Huston drama "Reflections in a Golden Eye Still, the ceaseless spotlight never made him conform When a leading man dropped out of a play, she pleaded with a young neighbor just home from college to take the role , when Bud was 6 Unable to join the war because of 4-F status, Brando at 19 moved to New York and stayed with his sister Frances, an art student " But his private life may best be defined by a line from "The Wild One," in which Brando, playing a motorcycle gang leader, is asked what he's rebelling against Christian, 31, claimed the shooting was accidental After a heavily publicized trial, Christian was found guilty of voluntary manslaughter and use of a gun Details about Brando's funeral weren't disclosed Jocelyn Brando studied acting with Stella Adler, and Marlon decided to join her It was roundly booed " Brando, whose unpredictable behavior made him equally fascinating off the screen, was acclaimed the greatest actor of his generation, a two-time Academy Award winner who influenced some of the best actors of the generation that followed, among them Al Pacino, Robert De Niro and Jack Nicholson And he had the kind of brutal aggressiveness that I hate If I could trade places with Dag, I would " The latter was directed by Elia Kazan, who would remember him for "A Streetcar Named Desire" in 1947 Brando died Thursday at an undisclosed Los Angeles hospital, attorney David J I detest the character His mother, the former Dorothy Pennebaker, was small, willowy, compassionate and filled with creative energy " He tried directing himself in a Western, "One-eyed Jacks," going wildly over budget " They were divorced after he met Tarita I'm prepared for the consequences A remake of "Mutiny on the Bounty" in 1962, with Brando as Fletcher Christian, seemed to bolster his reputation as a difficult star She had given birth to two daughters, Frances and Jocelyn, before Marlon was born He was blamed for a change in directors and a runaway budget though he disclaimed responsibility for either "Whaddya got?" was his reply " One of his greatest performances was overshadowed by an uproar over the erotic nature of the Bernardo Bertolucci film " It took longer For his first film he declined several big studio offers and joined independent Stanley Kramer for "The Men" in 1950 The image of Stanley seemed to have fallen on Brando, and he once protested to an interviewer: "Kowalski was always right, and never afraid She was 25 " His box office power seemed finished until Francis Ford Coppola chose him to play Mafia leader Corleone in "The Godfather" in 1972 Starting with Kowalski in the stage version of "A Streetcar Named Desire" and a startling series of screen portrayals, Brando changed the nature of American acting She was revealed to be Irish, and they separated a year later Before the sentencing, Marlon Brando delivered an hour of rambling testimony in which he said he and his ex-wife had failed Christian To research the story of paraplegic war veterans, he spent a month in a Veterans Administration hospital " His films after "Waterfront" failed to challenge his unique talent Although he remained in Hollywood, he refused to be part of it "He influenced more young actors of my generation than any actor," longtime friend and "Godfather" co-star James Caan said Friday through his publicist Actor Marlon Brando Dies at 80 Jul 2, 1:45 PM EST Marlon Brando, who revolutionized American acting with his Method performances in "A Streetcar Named Desire" and "On the Waterfront" and went on to create the iconic character of Don Vito Corleone in "The Godfather," has died "I am myself," he once declared, "and if I have to hit my head against a brick wall to remain true to myself, I will do it Tahitian beauty Tarita who appeared in the film became his third wife and mother of two of his children His most famous act of rebellion was his refusal in 1973 to accept the best actor Oscar for "The Godfather He had nine children The boy also displayed a talent for playacting, both in elaborate pranks and in plays and recitations The lives of Dorothy Brando and her children were upset when the father was transferred to Evanston, Ill Seeley said Friday " The tragedy was compounded in 1995, when Cheyenne committed suicide He never wondered, he never doubted I'm afraid of it came from the American heartland, born in Omaha, Neb The Tennessee Williams play made Brando famous, and his first signs of discomfort emerged Brando's private life turned tragic years later with his son's conviction for killing the boyfriend of his half sister, Cheyenne Brando, in 1990 Although he remained a leading star, Brando's career waned in the '60s with a series of failures His exasperated father sent the boy to military school in an effort to instill discipline He was schooled at the Actors Studio in New York, learning Method acting in which the performers closely identify with the role of the character they portray " Brando suffered through the tedium of his two-year contract with "Streetcar," and he never appeared in another play He married actress Anna Kashfi in 1957, believing her to be East Indian He appeared in such plays as "I Remember Mama," "A Flag is Born" (a Jewish pageant with Paul Muni) and "Truckline Cafe So did his romances and marriages Bud was constantly being reprimanded for misbehavior at school, infuriating his father Seeley said arrangements would be private He grew up a pudgy, mischievous boy who was called Bud to distinguish him from his father The "Bounty" experience affected Brando's life in a profound way: He fell in love with Tahiti and its people "I don't think the film is about the Mafia at all," Brando told Newsweek All three wives were pregnant when he married them "Hollywood is ruled by fear and love of money," he told a reporter Five years later, Cheyenne committed suicide, still depressed over the killing Millions of words were written about his weight, his many romances and three marriages, his tireless â€â€? and, for some, tiresome â€â€? support of the American Indian and other causes, his battles with film producers and directors, his refuge on a Tahitian isle " Brando was the unforgettable embodiment of the brutish Stanley Kowalski of "A Streetcar Named Desire," the mixed up Terry Malloy of "On the Waterfront" (which won him his first Oscar) and the wily Corleone of "The Godfather " Afterward, Drollet's father said he thought Marlon Brando was acting and his son was "getting away with murder He proved a skilled pantomimist, especially in his depiction of the death of John Dillinger The film was an overwhelming critical and commercial success and Brando's jowly, raspy-voiced Don became one of the screen's most unforgettable characters In last year's finale between Ruben Studdard and Clay Aiken, a total of 24 million votes were recorded, with Studdard declared the winner by a slim 134,000-vote margin The show is a ratings winner and valuable property for its producers and Fox, but Broadcasting & Cable said the network is alienating viewers who repeatedly get a busy signal when they try to call in their votes Fox dismissed the allegation as speculative Votes also can be cast by text messaging, which hasn't seen the same problems, the report said The magazine cited an August 2002 story by The Associated Press in which "American Idol" producers acknowledged power-dialers were casting thousands of votes That indicates a logjam in which millions of potential voters never got through, the magazine said Trias, Fantasia Barrino and Diana DeGarmo are still in the running The voting system has been called into question in recent weeks as contestants who appeared to be front-runners were dumped in favor of others who many viewers have complained were lesser performers Report: Jammed Phones Skew 'Idol' Tallies May 16, 6:14 AM EST Many would-be "American Idol" voters are disenfranchised by overburdened phone lines and by "power dialers" who hog the system, the magazine Broadcasting & Cable reported Fox said both it and the show's producers have "gone to great lengths" to ensure the integrity of the voting process " Fox TV, which airs the talent contest, has failed to address the difficulties viewers must overcome to log votes, the magazine said Broadcasting & Cable said so-called power-dialers, who use fast Internet connections and computer autodialing software, also affect the outcome by the number of votes they are able to cast and by tying up lines so that others can't vote " Ratings and call volume have risen over the show's three seasons Viewers are allowed to vote repeatedly by phone during a two-hour window following the Tuesday show In its statement Sunday, Fox said there are procedures in place to prevent individuals from "unfairly influencing the outcome of the voting," adding that producers can remove votes identified as power-dialing But on the same night, Verizon, the nation's largest phone company, saw its daily volume increase by 116 million calls while SBC reported a call-volume increase of 115 million, according to Broadcasting & Cable Fox acknowledged there are times the phone network can't handle all calls due to the volume, but said it is using "the most sophisticated system available in the nation Last week, favorite La Toya London was voted off while Jasmine Trias survived a shaky performance The contest winner, who gets a record contract, will be decided in the series finale May 25-26 Questions about "Idol" voting are nothing new According to the magazine's issue being released Monday, "the only people choosing the next 'American Idol" are the ones lucky enough to get through â€â€? or skilled enough to get around â€â€? tremendously overtaxed phone lines "While acknowledging that dedicated fans may be unhappy with the outcome, the system only reports the decision of the voting public," the network said in a statement Jammed local phone lines, not the long-distance carrier network, creates the problem for callers, AT&T told the magazine |
