What are you rebelling against Johnny?



Marlon Brando 1924 - 2004

"I have always considered my life a private affair and the business of no one beyond my family and those I love. Except for moral and political issues that aroused in me a desire to speak out, I have done my utmost throughout my life, for the sake of my children and myself, to remain silent... But now, in my seventieth year, I have decided to tell the story of my life as best I can, so that my children can separate the truth from the myths that others have created about me, as myths are created about everyone swept up in the turbulent and distorting maelstrom of celebrity in our culture."
Marlon Brando 1994

"If there is a better performance by a man in the history of film in America, I don't know what it is."
Elia Kazan on Brando's performance in 'On the Waterfront'

What can one say that hasn't been said before - or at least will be in the next few weeks - about, in my opinion, the greatest actor to ever grace the screen? Not much. From a boy who grew into a man watching Brando - Thank You.

Whaddaya got?



Come on in - you'll have had your tea?
