It was announced this morning that Brando died sometime yesterday of an "undisclosed" cause ...

It's tough for me to not rank his "Godfather" performance as my favorite, but equally tough not to say the same of "One-Eyed Jacks" ...

In any event, he was most certainly one of a kind and he will be missed.

Saw that on another site too.

I liked him Apoclypse Now and The Freshman as well. Smaller roles, but the movie wouldn't have been the same without his presence. The hallmark of a truly great actor/actress.

Stellaaaaaaaaaa!

The horror.

Rest In Peace, Masters Mate Fletcher Christian.

Oh wait, that was just a character he played. Damn, he was good!

one of the greatest (overlooking his bizarre performance in the newer Island of Dr. Moreau) he brought a style and character to the screen that few ever have (was it even possible to love a mob boss before him?)...rest in peace

heard it on the radio on the way back from a local toraño event. :(

he was one of my favorite actors of all time, and i don't think anyone could have brought Don Vito Corleone or Stanley Kowalski to life like he did.

rest in peace...
