Post the best Marlon Brando stories
>>
>>63868915
JUST the biopic
>>
Marlon Brando is gay
>>
He was really into eating.
>>
I like the rumour that he spent his last years shitposting on message boards
>>
>a flying bagel, painted green
>>
>>63868915
Why do the most handsome guys always suffer from the hardest JUSTing?
>>
He hated jews
>>
>>63868915
When dieting, he had friends throw him bags of burgers over his fence

He wanted Kryptonians to look like talking crystals (Superman would just take human form upon landing on Earth) so he wouldn't have to show up on screen
>>
>you will never be as attractive as Brando was
Why even bother living?
>>
>>63868915
Is the photo on the right real, or is it fake?
>>
>In 1969, he bought himself a raccoon and called it Emma.

>When discussing his role in Superman with director Richard Donner, he said that he wanted his character to look like a green suitcase or a bagel.

>At an early audition, Brando stood in silence for many minutes before shouting out ʻHickory-dickory dock, the mouse ran up the clock."

>He used to try to lose weight by hanging upside down, but all he managed to do was choke himself with his own rolls of fat.

Why is he so fucking funny?

I've been reading a biography about him, I don't know if that's a different raccoon or what, but I think he had it in like 1950

It'd be a real Brando thing to have multiple pet racoons, though

The guy's day to day life is so fucking weird, he's almost unreal

he once took so long to have a shit that he ordered more cheeseburgers to be delivered to him while he was shitting on the toilet. he was on there for 2 hours.

I miss Brando. FFC losing his shit to various Brando provocations is the best part of Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse.
>>
>>63869111
He wanted to be replaced on screen by a floating bagel.

>>63869081
This too. He even went on Larry King and talked about it.
>>
>>63868939
bisexual, actually, I believe
>>
>>63869055
to be fair Brando was pretty much straight-up insane, not the most sensible example
>>
i like that time when he called out the Jews on national TV
>>
>>63869111
I like how he pronounced the planet "Criptin," as if to say "fuck you, I'm from there. You're the one saying it wrong"
>>
>>63868998
>rumor

>>
he rang qvc shopping channel and spoke to bob ross from the joy of painting live on air and told him he was a fan of the show.

is that don vito on the right? as in vincent margera?
>>
>>63873769
I feel like he secretly was actively trying to improve the film. If I remember correctly, the original ending had Brando not been such a hardass was a huge action sequence with him manning a .50 cal machine gun

Brando is the worst thing about Apocalypse Now

The minute he comes on screen the plot just completely falls apart and it feels like stepping into a completely different movie because the tone shifts.
>>
A baboon at some zoo spat at Brando so he filled his mouth with water from a near by fountain and spat it all on the baboon. It got scared and ran away.
>>
I fucking love Brando, an unbelievable man.
>>
>>63869210
Already am ;)
>>
>>63873813
I think it's just a happy accident. Brando had so much charisma and skill that no matter what he did it was good.
>>
>>63869217
As real as your life
>>
I like the story of Brando taking a rowboat from his personal island with giant tubs of ice cream and eating them in the middle of the ocean
>>
>>63869357
He seemed so normal in On the Waterfront. Everything after seemed crazy.
>>
>>63873681

You'd have a hard time finding a talented actor today, but an eccentric one as well?

There's none
>>
>>63873903
yeah kinda. Still have not seen anyone try to make sense of the ending of Apocalypse Now very successfully. We know Coppola rewrote the ending while brando was there, we know brando was improvising pretty much most of the time, and we also know he was reading newspaper clippings and pretended they were important or relevant to the story.

it was pretty much
>no thematic relationship with the rest of the film
>no conclusion provided
the ending
>>
>Years later, when Hickenlooper made his documentary, most of the stars and crew were happy to talk about the movie, except Brando. Hickenlooper tracked him down to the set of a movie and made his move. "'Mr Brando, we're making a documentary on Apocalypse Now, would you be prepared to do an on-camera interview?'" Brando turned round and stared like death into Hickenlooper's face. "Why are you making a film about that fat fuck, he owes me $2m." Obviously, Brando was having issues with his royalty checks from Coppola. "You tell that fat fuck that if he pays me the two million, you can film me taking a shit." With that, the trailer door slammed shut. Hickenlooper never got his interview.
>>
>>63874147
I dont believe that bullshit and neither do you. A lot of screenwriters write up some generic ending as placeholder/to be developed while the work progresses. Just because FFC wrote that down doesnt mean at all he was decided on it
>>
>>63868915
Got too obsessed with food. When you have the means to do what you want you will eventually go too far, he went with food. Some people go for sex and some go for drugs.

If i was rich i would just smoke a lot more weed. He went for burgers.

This. I can easily imagine this film being reduced to forgettable trash without him. He raised the overall quality of the film and i'm sure gently influenced even the scenes he wasn't in.

take out all of brandos stuff, now imagine you are sitting down to edit the rest, you would be pushed into making a very different film.

>In the fifties and sixties, Brando was the quintessential American sex symbol bedding Marilyn Monroe, Marlene Dietrich, Grace Kelly, Jackie Kennedy and hundreds more in the swinging sixties and at Hollywood key parties. But he was also selective and turned down Elizabeth Taylor because ‘her ass was too small’ and Sophia Loren because her breath was ‘worse than that of a dinosaur’.
>>
>He was an avid user of the Internet in his final years, often going into chat rooms to start arguments.

I love this one. Imagine being on an AOL chatroom in 1996 arguing with some idiot, not knowing that it's actually Marlon Brando goading you and laughing his ass off.

>During filming Apocalypse Now, crew members reportedly complained about someone defecting on set. After some investigation, they caught Marlon Brando redhanded squatted in a corner. Asking why he was doing this, Brando replied: "Uno farto @3:17"
>>
I think it's fairly clear that Brando wasn't necessarily actually crazy. He hated Hollywood, he thought it was a joke. He thought it was unjust and hilarious that actors get paid so much money. He didn't like his own acting and all of the reports of him fucking around on set are basically him intentionally messing with people for his own entertainment and to waste as much money as possible.

I strongly recommend watching the making of The Island of Dr. Moreau, which is interesting in its own right, but also goes into detail about Brando and his god-tier trolling. Some of the cast members even note that it was obvious that Brando knew exactly what he was doing and that he was messing around on purpose because he didn't give a shit.

Dude was the ultimate greatest IRL troll of all time. Literally decades of nothing but fucking around and wasting time and money because he hated Hollywood, whilst getting paid to do so, because people were convinced of his "great acting' which he admittedly phoned in and didn't even try to do properly.

Keith Richards said that Brando propositioned Anita Pallenberg, Richards girlfriend at the time, in front of Keith. when she turned Brando down Brando suggested a 3 way.

Keith ended up naming his firstborn son, Marlon Richards, after Brando.

I saw Marlon Brando at a Los Angeles grocery store in '96. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

It didn't, watch his movies after that.most of them are decent (inb4 Jack).

>Francis Ford Coppola spent days reading Joseph Conrad's source novel "Heart of Darkness" out loud to Marlon Brando on the set.


>When Francis Ford Coppola first described the role to Marlon Brando, Brando remarked that an American colonel wouldn't have a name like Kurtz, he would have an English name like "Leighley." Having never read "Heart of Darkness", Brando did not appreciate the reference. Brando eventually read "Heart of Darkness", but not until after the film's completion. After reading the book and liking it, Brando demanded that his name be changed to Kurtz in the film, and Harrison Ford's lines were dubbed to accommodate him.

One From The Heart was a gigantic bomb and the movies he took after that were just to pay off his debts:

>Apocalypse Now marked the end of the golden phase of Coppola's career.[15] His musical fantasy One from the Heart, although pioneering the use of video-editing techniques which are standard practice in the film industry today, ended with a disastrous box-office gross of $636,796 against a US$26 million budget,[49] far from enough to recoup the costs incurred in the production of the movie and he was forced to sell his 23-acre Zoetrope Studio in 1983.[18] He would spend the rest of the decade working to pay off his debts. (Zoetrope Studios finally filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1990, after which its name was changed to American Zoetrope).[15] In addition Coppola himself was forced into US bankruptcy court three times over the next eight years.

It's actually caught in the doc. Brando says it while they're filming, and FFC says to whoever is near him, "Did he just say that that's all the dialogue he has to say today???" The documentary is great, made priceless by Brando's erratic, hilarious behavior.

>He was an avid user of the Internet in his final years, often going into chat rooms to start arguments.

>Brando enjoyed talking to strangers on other islands or passing boats on his ham radio anonymously. He didn't used his real name, and often called himself "Mike" or "Matin Bumby" and spoke in very believable French, German, and Japanese accents.

>When asked to contribute to his biography for the theater program of "I Remember Mama," Brando claimed he was born in Calcutta and had a Great Dane whom he feeds "dehydrated cubes of dog food.".

>Sean Penn told writer Charles Bukowski that Brando put scripts from producers into his freezer, in order to use them as targets in skeet shooting. Brando would take the frozen scripts and have them tossed in the air into the canyon below his home at night, and then proceed to blast them into smithereens with a shotgun while they were on the fly. By freezing the scripts, the pages were stiff and made for better "clay pigeon" substitutes. The practice is mentioned in one of Bukowski's poems. Bukowski also wrote about Brando in his short story "You Kissed Lilly", in which Lilly masturbates while watching Brando in a movie on television. The story is part of the collection "Hot Water Music" (1983).

>Believed that he could control stress in his life and physical pain through meditation. So sure he was of this, that he wanted to prove it. When he decided in the early nineties to be circumcised, he wanted the doctor to do the operation with no anesthesia so that he could show off this skill. The doctor refused because of medical ethics, but Brando underwent the operation anyway after receiving a painkilling shot in his back. Nevertheless, he wanted to show the doctors what he could do, and he asked them to take his blood pressure. Through meditation, he brought his blood pressure down more than 20 points.
>>
>Even before he let himself get obese and balloon up to over 350 lb., his eating habits were legendary. The Men (1950) co-star Richard Erdman claimed Brando's diet circa 1950 consisted "mainly of junk food, usually take-out Chinese or peanut butter, which he consumed by the jarful." By the mid-'50s he was renowned for eating boxes of Mallomars and cinnamon buns, washing them down with a quart of milk. Close friend Carlo Fiore wrote that in the '50s and early '60s Brando went on crash diets before his films commenced shooting, but when he lost his willpower he would eat huge breakfasts consisting of corn flakes, sausages, eggs, bananas and cream, and a huge stack of pancakes drenched in syrup. Fiore was detailed by producers to drag him out of coffee shops.

> Karl Malden claimed that, during the shooting of One-Eyed Jacks (1961), Brando would have "two steaks, potatoes, two apple pies a la mode and a quart of milk" for dinner, necessitating constant altering of his costumes. During a birthday party for Brando--the film's director as well as star--the crew gave him a belt with a card reading, "Hope it fits." A sign was placed below the birthday cake saying, "Don't feed the director." He reportedly ate at least four pieces of cake that day. His second wife Movita, who had a lock put on their refrigerator to stop pilfering by what she thought was the household staff, awoke one morning to find the lock broken and teeth marks on a round of cheese. The maid told her that Brando nightly raided the fridge. Movita also related how he often drove down to hot dog stands late at night (one of his favorite spots was the legendary Pink's Hot Dogs in Hollywood; it was open 24 hours a day, and Brando would go there at 3:00 or 4:00 in the morning and polish off a half-dozen hot dogs at a time).

>Mutiny on the Bounty (1962) costumer James Taylor claimed that Brando split the seat on 52 pairs of pants during the shooting of the film, necessitating that stretch fabric be sewn into his replacement duds. He split those, too. Ice cream was the culprit: Brando would purloin a five-gallon tub of the fattening dessert, row himself out into the lagoon and indulge. On the set of The Appaloosa (1966), Brando's double often had to be used for shooting after lunch, and filming could only proceed in long shots, as Brando could no longer fit into his costumes. Dick Loving, who was married to Brando's sister Frannie, said that Brando used to eat "two chickens at a sitting, and [go] through bags of Pepperidge Farm cookies."

>It was reported during the filming of Missouri (1976) that the environmentally sensitive Brando fished a frog out of a pond, took a huge bite out of the hapless amphibian, and threw it back into the drink. Living on his island of Tetioroa, Brando created what he called "real-life Mounds Bars" by cracking open a coconut, melting some chocolate in the sun, then stirring it into the coconut for a tasty treat. By the 1980s there were reports that one of his girlfriends had left him because he failed to keep his promise of losing weight. He seemed to be dieting, but to her astonishment, he never lost weight. She found out that his buddies had been throwing bags of Burger King Whoppers over the gates of his Mulholland Dr. estate late at night to relieve the hunger pangs of their famished friend. In the late '80s Brando was spotted regularly buying ice cream from a Beverly Hills ice cream shop--five gallons at a time. He supposedly confessed that he was eating it all himself. Finally, a reported Brando snack was a pound of cooked bacon shoved into an entire loaf of bread. When Brando became ill, he seriously cut back and lost 70 pounds on a bland diet, but never lost his love of food and especially ice cream.

Between Val Kilmer and Brando, The Island of Dr. Moreau was an absolute madhouse.

>At 27, De La Rosa was susceptible to Brando’s contagious ego. He started acting up too, lashing out (physically) at Hofschneider, and using his sister to translate pick-up lines to the female extras who described him as “very sexual.”

>Asked Kummisetä (1972) co-star James Caan what he would want if his wishes came true. When Caan answered that he'd like to be in love, Brando answered, "Me too. But don't tell my wife."

>Took possession of friend Wally Cox's ashes from his widow in order to scatter them at sea but actually kept them hidden in a closet at his house. In his autobiography, Brando said he frequently talked to Cox. The Los Angeles Times on September 22, 2004 quoted Brando's son, Miko, to the effect that both his father's and Cox's ashes were scattered at the same time in Death Valley, California in a ceremony following Brando's death.

>In his autobiography, he said that he was physically attracted to Vivien Leigh during the making of A Streetcar Named Desire (1951). He could not bring himself to seduce her, however, as he found her husband, Laurence Olivier, to be such a "nice guy."

>During an acting class, when the students were told to act out "a chicken hearing an air-raid siren," most of the students clucked and flapped their arms in a panic, while Brando stood stock-still, staring up at the ceiling. When asked to explain himself, Brando replied, "I'm a chicken - I don't know what an air-raid siren is."

>He reputedly suggested that his cameo role as Jor-El in Superman (1978) be done by him in voiceover only, with the character's image onscreen being a glowing, levitating green bagel. Unsure if Brando was joking or not, the film's producers formally rejected the suggestion.

>Expelled from high school for riding a motorcycle through the halls.

>He used cue cards in many of his movies because he refused to memorize his lines. His lines were written on the diaper of the baby, "Kal-El", in Superman (1978).

Brando (b. 1961) and Rebecca Brando Kotlinzky (b. 1967); 3) From third marriage (with Tarita Teriipia) = Simon Teihotu Brando (b. 1967), Stefano Brando (b. 1967) and Tarita Cheyenne Brando (b. 1970 and d. 1995); 4) From liaisons with Maria Christina Ruiz, his maid = Ninna Priscilla Brando (b. 1989), Myles Jonathan Brando (b. 1992) and Timothy Gahan Brando (b. 1994). Also adopted 3 children: Petra Brando-Corval (daughter of Brando's assistant, Caroline Barrett), Maimiti Brando and Raiatua Brando.

>He was a close friend of the reclusive singer Michael Jackson for many years, even appearing in his music video "You Rock My World" in 2001. The last time Brando left his bungalow in Hollywood was to stay at Jackson's Neverland Ranch in the summer of 2003.

>It may well be the most outlandish road trip since the wheel was invented: a cross-country dash featuring Elizabeth Taylor, Michael Jackson and Marlon Brando, in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The trio reportedly took turns driving, with Brando allegedly fueling himself on a diet of junk food.

>Details of the trip emerged in a Vanity Fair interview with Tim Mendelson, Taylor's former personal assistant. It came about after Jackson invited the two Hollywood actors to be his guests at a pair of concerts at New York's Madison Square Garden in early September 2001. Following the attacks on the World Trade Centre and the subsequent grounding of all internal flights, the trio were forced to find alternative transport back to the west coast. Mendelson claims they wound up driving a modest rental car all the way to Ohio – a distance of more than 500 miles.
>>
>>63882297

>The trip was not all plain sailing. "Brando allegedly annoyed his colleagues by stopping at every KFC and Burger King they passed along the highway," writes Vanity Fair reporter Sam Kashner. "One can only imagine the shock their appearance caused at gas stations and rest stops across America."

>But Mendelson's freewheeling picaresque has already hit a bump in the road, with another of Taylor's aides insisting the actor was never in the car. "Elizabeth stayed behind," the anonymous aide told the magazine. "She went to a church to pray, and she went to an armory where people were who couldn't get home or who'd stayed behind to look for the missing. She also went down to Ground Zero, where she met with first responders. Eventually, the airports opened and she flew home."

pic related is true color (no colorization bs) of him

my eyes are green and my lips are slightly bigger. nose slightly bigger too. but eye shape, eyebrows, lips, all very similar i'm also the exact height he was.

>In 1979 during the filming for 'Apocalypse Now,' Brando (Whose role involved playing a Colonel 'Walter Kurtz') was surfing with co-stars when a small child was dragged under the waves and began to struggle to stay above surface. As his co-stars rushed to help, Brando held out an arm in front of them, stopping them, and was reported saying by Martin Sheen (who plays Benjamin Willard),"The waves have claimed her, let her fight for her own life". And proceeded to watch her struggle until her body disappeared beneath the waves, lifeless. He was later spotted outside the child's house, making drowning gestures and thanking the family for their child's sacrifice to the great ocean.

In 2001 after being approached by Scientology recruiters, Marlon Brando is reported to have said, "Why join a cult... when I can BE a cult?!" Allegedly he shoved the recruiters to the ground and ran away laughing maniacally. 5 months later his agent finally located him in a small African village near lake Victoria, leading an apocalyptic death cult. The UN report on the aftermath remains classified but rumors speak of mass graves, human sacrifice, and murals of Mr.Brando's face made out of the bones of children. Beneath the village it is said that the cult of Ogamboo Metukalu (The Godfather) had 2,000 slave laborers digging a secret underground temple complex where the cult intended to live after the Apocalypse. Mr. Brando's agent says the Hollywood star has put that part of his life behind him and chalks it up to poor judgment brought on by a flu, but if that is the case, why does Marlon continue to make routine trips to Africa to this day? And why are cases of missing children around Lake Victoria more than 20 times higher than the average of the rest of Africa? Mr.Brando's agent declined to comment.
