Marlon Brando

American actor (1924–2004)

Marlon Brando Jr. (April 3, 1924 – July 1, 2004) was an American actor. Widely regarded as one of the greatest cinema actors of the 20th century,[1][2] Brando received numerous accolades throughout his career, which spanned six decades, including two Academy Awards, three British Academy Film Awards, a Cannes Film Festival Award, two Golden Globe Awards, and a Primetime Emmy Award. Brando is credited with being one of the first actors to bring the Stanislavski system of acting and method acting to mainstream audiences.

Brando came under the influence of Stella Adler and Stanislavski's system in the 1940s. He began his career on stage, where he was lauded for adeptly interpreting his characters. He made his Broadway debut in the play I Remember Mama (1944) and won Theater World Awards for his roles in the plays Candida and Truckline Cafe, both in 1946. He returned to Broadway as Stanley Kowalski in the Tennessee Williams play A Streetcar Named Desire (1947), a role he reprised in the 1951 film adaptation,

Songs My Mother Taught Me

February 9, 2015
For as long as I can remember, I've identified myself as an actor (although sometimes, the action required to be an actor has been quite scarce) and for as long as I can remember, I've been a living, breathing American that has had enough of her life surrounded by technology. I bring up these two points to show you that of course I know who Marlon Brando is. He's The Godfather, he's the badass that started a rebellion with a motorcycle and some rolled up jeans, he's the volatile man of Hollywood that made more seemingly ridiculous demands on set...he's the greatest actor of all time. I haven't had a toe on the stage in months. I haven't seen my face on the screen in even longer but having recently procured my library card (cue Lauren screaming in exultation) I saw this biography and something in me said "who knows, maybe it'll help. Maybe it'll be like The goddamn Secret for lost artistic souls like myself." It wasn't. But oh, how I enjoyed this read.

This autobiography takes us through Marlon's life, chronologically. It begins with a

Songs My Mother Taught Me (Brando book)

Autobiography of Marlon Brando

Songs My Mother Taught Me an autobiography by Marlon Brando with Robert Lindsey as co-author,[1] published by Random House in 1994.

The book deals with Brando's childhood, his memories of being a struggling actor and of his early relationships with family members and later with other actors, producers, and directors. He talks candidly about his sex life; but, notably, he shares relatively few details about his wives or children. Reportedly, the omission of details about his experiences as a husband and father was one of Brando's conditions for agreeing to submit his manuscript to the publisher, who paid the actor over a million dollars for the work.[2] He does, though, recount his encounters with and impressions of such notable figures as Marilyn Monroe, Laurence Olivier, Vivien Leigh, David Niven, Richard Burton, Elizabeth Taylor, John F. Kennedy, John Huston, and many others. He also describes some aspects of his theatre work and films, although those descriptions tend to be su
