Here's a playlist of the original videos from which I got the clips for this compilation: • Women on Brando
Chapters:
00:00 - Barbra Streisand

Ugh I love Rita, she's so beautiful and well-spoken. She seems like she really understood him, the good and the bad. Also I sure hope to age that gracefully.
Rita was such a beautiful women and agreed on her intelligence. Must have been something to be around in her heyday.
She must have agreed ahead of time to discuss the question regarding her suicide attempt; She takes no offense at the asking of the question (2:40), and calmly answers.
Classy Rita, I can only imagine them together. Hot
Kó
" Ugh" is a strange choice of words to preface your comment. Ugh is used to express disgust or repugnance, and yet you're not disgusted by Rita; quite the opposite.
Rita is so candid about everything concerning her time with Marlon. I respect her comfort with her honesty.
She's a true class act and so graceful. Strong woman. 🧡
And she doesn’t seem bitter or overly obsessed, just honest. Very refreshing.
just some class analysis :) pure intellect, that's all but I sure liked it, too)
I only knew her from Electric Company. I had no idea she was so gorgeous when she was young.
Rita is a Godess
How can you not love Rita Moreno? She's so beautiful, so classy, so honest, succinct and insightful. Her eyes are just a pair of powerful magnets.
Ask Sally Struthers about Rita Moreno.
@@QueenVelveeta I assume you mean Ms. Struthers had a bad experience with her? I remember they did the female 'Odd Couple' onstage together many years ago.
@@QueenVelveeta Sally wouldn’t even mention her name on a podcast.
She reminds me of Lena Horne.
I happened to meet her Rita Morero at a screening in NY, she wasn't very nice and I wasn't impressed
As someone who grew up with a single alcoholic mother and had a very dark childhood, it is very difficult to know how to be in a relationship and then be a parent when you have never seen it. I read a lot of books and even took parenting classes before I had kids. I was terrified of being a bad parent. I did much better as a parent than a spouse. I was never physically or verbally abusive. I just don’t trust adults so I wouldn’t really open up to people I dated or my spouse.
OMG, my mother died at 51, she drank herself to death because of childhood traumas and other things, and it still affects me today 35 years later. God bless you, and all others that have lived through that.
I am glad you had a good time being a parent. That is more important anyway. I smile not a parent, but I worked as a substitute teacher. Kids are the future. Your honesty is very relatable. Too.
@@mclaurinisGODsSon2 It is what mattered most to me. But once they go off to college, get a job, get married, then what do you do? The idea of dating in my 40’s is not appealing.
@@robpolaris5002 Maybe you'll still meet someone nice. Or maybe you'll have grandchildren eventually, and hopefully enjoy being a grandparent. Best wishes, anyway :)
@@monmothma3358 😁
I’m touched by Rita’s honesty, soul bearing and analysis of her relationship.
My mother who was very private with her emotions, feelings, etc. in keeping with her astrological sign of Cancer, born in 1925, married my father in 1946 and they stayed together all their lives. After my father died in 2002, she bravely continued on with life alone. The ONLY time I EVER saw her lose composure was when I asked her what she thought about Marlon Brando. Her reply was excitedly “ Oh my god! GORGEOUS!!” I was absolutely stunned to say the least! But, there it is… 😮
Interesting
Cancer? You mean Crab, dont care if u didn't, Cancer just not cool
@@vilimbubas1302 and it was very young my grandpa had cancer and I couldn't understand why he had a crab living in his body
@@vilimbubas1302 As a Cancer, I disagree, simp.
Wow that’s a great story
For him to keep getting married and abusing these women and her, Rita Moreno, to keep wanting him and keep seeing him is kinda sad.
I believe he was just too self centered to do all that. We all have baggage from our childhood and formation but at some point one has to learn that others are not to blame for what happened before them. I’d be abandoning everyone by now, if I’d carry my childhood monsters in me.
He was a misogynistic piece of abusive shit towards women and not even that great an actor but revered as an actor and a 'man' for some bizarre reason! 🤔
Painful! They still admired this man, who was a so called 'talent' 😕
Love stinks.
Talent and torment are both fascinating characteristics.. add hyper intelligence with supersensitivity - who could not be compelled!
Like Streisand I fell in love with Marlon Brando when I was 13. I saw him in Mutiny on the Bounty and was instantly obsessed. My first in a long line of obsessive loves. I harangued my parents to let me see the movie again, but that wasn't enough. I memorized the soundtrack. I learned that Brando had loved the Tahitian actress Tarita who played Maimiti. So I learned how to Tahitian dance, which made me a big hit a few years later in the hippie times. I painted pictures of Tahitian women, adopted Paul Gauguin's palette, even loved the Mad Magazine takeoff of the movie which made big fun of Brando's affectations...and saw every Brando picture from then on. That was one obsession that paid off. Around 1980 in LA, some guy came into a crowded room exclaiming, "We were just at Nibler's and Marlon Brando was at a table with two gorgeous Eurasian chicks. God, what a pig. He's short and fat and old, and these babes were..." There were about twelve women standing around, saying "Really!! You saw Marlon Brando? Wow!" His friend chimed in with, again, how Brando was this little toad of a guy. Finally one woman cut him off. She said, "You don't get it, fool. He's Marlon F--cking Brando. It doesn't matter what he looks like. He can eat with his feet, he can be three feet tall and drool. He's Marlon F-cking Brando."
he was addicted AND addictive, but whatreal woman wants a n ordinary man, as for short, fat,and old, sophia loren said about her husband, when i look at him I see erroll flynn
Both Streisand and Brando are left-wing pathological liars.
@@joan7562 whera are the bones of marlon: whe stil {F_word} love him..! And no fat man a all..
I love what you wrote. Yes, he's M F B!
Hi darling
Rita Moreno's honesty and openness is amazing! Great actress-she was incredible as Anita in West Side Story!-she had declined to audition for it on Broadway because of nerves
There is nothing phony about the incredible Rita Moreno! I read her book. She mentions her dysfunctional love affair with Marlon Brando. She was so obsessed with him.
I think that in her honesty she wanted to eliminate her demons.
God, that Mary Murphy is stunning in that scene...innocent, wide-eyed, and radiant. She is equally powerful to Marlon.
Physical beauty along with a difficult childhood leads to an interesting, often tragic life. My mother, single mother - 3 kids - was a knock out. Men were always coming around to take her out, make her smile - while I put myself to bed. I grew up hansom and became a male model, for a time. Forever I put beautiful women on a pedestal, and spent most of my life alone.
Aw poor sweetheart. Don't worry you will find someday the right woman for you.😃 Good luck.
@@irinacapsa6412 he's too old now ig. advice is irrelevant.
@@irinacapsa6412 Dear One, your heart is in a good place. I just turned 69 and only focus on God uttering another message. ( still think women are the next best thing to pure magic!)
@@jthepickle7 A very nice thing to say about women.There are still men out there that treat women awful.
@@irinacapsa6412 Out numbered, in my experience by the women who treat men awfully....
Brando in the early 50's was an Adonis!!
Amen!😱😹
gorgeous ....
...then he started...to eat!
@@robd1329 Yeah. Pity! What did he die of?
@@winnifredforbes1114 ...im not exactly sure but i would bet it was heart disease..he was really fat in his later years
When the interviewer said "He brought that. He was the first who brought that to the screen, that passion" that was an undisputed fact. Marlon reinvented the whole concept of male acting and what it meant to be a hero in a film. And when I say this I put emphasis on the "Hero" which you dont see much now. We have characters, protagonists, avengers. But the role of a hero, the passion in The Man of a film. The masculinity he holds the charisma, intimidation & the aura he carries with himself while also having the perfect amount of vulnerability... Brando brought all that to the screen. He embodied the term hero and paved the way for decades worth of heroes to walk. Names like Pacino & De Niro wouldn't be all so recognisable if Brando haven't left a blueprint for millions of actors to build on.
Brando was good but the slew of actors that came after being inspired by him have ruined cinema
The struggle took its bizarrest turn in 1972 when Kashfi effectively had her son kidnapped from school and taken to Mexico, for which she was later arrested. Reportedly, the town where the boy was taken was San Felipe, Baja, Mexico. This episode prompted the courts to grant Brando sole custody of Christian. No doubt the protracted custody battle had a profoundly negative affect on their unhappy son, who in 1991 was convicted of the manslaughter of his stepsister's boyfriend. He received a lengthy prison sentence.
Absolutely agree!!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
MArlon gave credit to actor Paul Muni for creating the style of acting that Marlon emulated.
@@schzti2455big disagree. Marlon inspired legends like al pacino and rob de niro which is only just 2 names out of the dozen.
I came here a marlon Brando fan and left a Rita Moreno fan
Mary Murphy was a living doll in her prime oh my gosh.
I never heard of her!
I think that scene is still very hot!

Brando....is one of the best actors of all time...BUT he treated women "absolutely" terrible !
….terribly: absolutely terribly.
They threw themselves at him.....by the thousands.......they were asking for trouble.
Hey, has anyone else found that they can't comment on new youtube videos any more?
Say something new🙄. Y’all are acting like these women didn’t throw themselves at him or weren’t aware he was a serial cheat but still latched unto him either way.
Women wanted to get fucked and he fucked alright! If you're looking for a saintly man then act like one. Marlon Brando was a great actor and an OK human and he had flaws like ordinary men, he fucked everyone both male and female, seems to have had suffered from dysfunctional family but that doesn't give him a right to behave like an animal, but then women wanted him to fuck like an animal, so he gave him what they wanted. end of story.
Jean Simmons just gorgeous
Yes.
The most beautiful woman
I agree and so did everyone who met her.Shirley Jones said ; “Both men and women fell in love with Jean Simmons”.
She was ,always my favourite actress
Brando had a crush on Breyers Ice Cream all his life too.
He was gluttonous
Richard - Oh, HaHa!!!!
Especially in his dénouement
So?
It is interesting, that such a dynamite-looking man, disrespected his looks and body, especially later in life...If I had been given such a gift, I would be taking better care of myself now, as an older, blah-looking person.
What an absolutely brilliant post!, very honest candid interviews, i'd love to see more
This was surprisingly honest. Both the good and the bad. Especially from Rita Moreno, who's also so intelligent she's a joy to listen to
Thank you for sharing these amazing stories.
Love Marlon Brando, there’s a vulnerability about him that us women LOVE and he knew how to play into it well. He was such a beautiful, intelligent yet troubled man
Like Marilyn Monroe? lol
Us women? What about Maria Schneider?
sorry honey, but he was gay as gay can be
Beautiful? Go to eye doctor, bc you seee words when looking in face of average looking man
@@schzti2455 Irrelevant to the matter at hand, he was still very magnetic to a lot of folks and he knew it so.
Brando was everybody’s flame. He was and remains the best.
He was an Aries ♈️
True ♈️ Aries man
And chose beautiful women also 😉
@@holland9199 He had an Aries Moon too.
@@jacquelinelongueirachoucinoexactly
Anna Kashfi's voice is so beautiful - so calm, so well-spoken, natural, and clear. Her voice reminds me of Josephine Baker's in her interviews in the sixties - a mix of old-school British English, and a far away feel; a confident humanity, and comforting calmness.
The struggle took its bizarrest turn in 1972 when Kashfi effectively had her son kidnapped from school and taken to Mexico, for which she was later arrested.

Mary Murphy kept her looks a long while.
I never knew of her...but she had as much going for her as Brando did!
I love Marlon with all of my heart
Wow, Mary Murphy was a total smokeshow! Like a hotter version of Donna Reed or the like. Even in the interview decades later she is still so beautiful. Some people just have those genes
Smokeshow: nice
I love when these people say that they were 'in love with him" ...no you were in lust with him
'On the waterfront' was the movie that sealed my crush on Brando. The sweetness that you don't expect in the Terry character was captivating.
The Julius Caesar movie starring Marlon Brando should be required viewing in public schools . Just to see him in that movie was magic . I also loved one of his last movies , The Score . It's sad it didn't become a hit . It's usually playing in most of the free streaming sites .
Coming to 4k soon
Julius Ceasar 1953 with Guilgood & James Mason....PERFECT 👌
where did you watch it? I'm dying to see it
@@Evelynlopes0510 I BOUGHT Julius Caesar . For The Score , it's usually on PlutoTV or TubiTV
@@akfreed6949 oh thanks i try
Tom Hardy should play Brando in a biopic.
Or Thor...could play him ..The gorgeous dept...not that voice though
This m could play anyone or anything. He’s always the most interesting man on the screen. Even in “Peaky Blinders” with the other most compelling actor today .
And even more tragic, the wonderful son, Christian, from the beautiful actress Anna Kashfi, suffered so much. And beautiful Hawaiian daughter, Cheyenne...suicide. His off spring were emotional trainwrecks. 😭
Yeah, HOLLYWOOD will do that to a person!
How do you know Marlon Brando’s son was “wonderful.” Pardon me.I need to pray. Dear Lord Jesus Christ Lord of Revenge In The Old Testament: Will you please spare me these idiots that worship actors and actors that exist in fiction and fantasy and the next time you decide to unleash a psychopath mass murderer on innocent citizens tell your Jonestown Kool-Aid drinking Christian supplicants that it was your fault. Capiche God baby. - Chris Chichester, Rochester N.Y.
He was an emotional train wreck. He didn't know how to be a human being or love his children, if anyone. His tahitian wife suffered a great deal with him.
@@Jolene8 - Marlon Brando existed in make-believe, fiction and fantasy. He’s not a doctor, nurse, teacher, scientist or construction worker. His whole life is reading lines before a camera written for him. This ludicrous existence delivers absurd and slavish compliments such as ‘brilliant,’ ‘pioneer,’ or ‘genius.’ A Hollywood actor does nothing to improve anyone’s life. - Chris Chichester, Rochester N.Y.
@@chrischichester7823 why did you quote yourself! 😭 But yeah, i agree with you, people be overdoing it saying he's a genius, he's a fucking hypocrite.
I didn’t realize Jiminy Glick was based on an actual person!
Beautiful man!!! Man and women loved him... and Marlon loved both as well! I think he had children with every housekeeper he had. He was a very confused/troubled man. Sadly 😥
He stood up for the American indian.How many Hollywood actors used their fame for good social causes?Not many.In this regard, he was a courageous man,way ahead of his times.
Yeah he was a boss for standing up for "Natives" as they're known here on Vancouver Island.
Exactamundo. What I like about MB is he never change his spot unlike alotta opportunistic celebs who R nothing but causes fashionista's. Marlon ain't perfect, but when it comes to civil rights and the flights of The Native Americans, he was consistently aware and passionate. Beyond a shadow of a doubt, The G.O.A.T...of acting.
How many actors don't stand up for good social causes?
they girl he sent was a playboy model and not even native
Definitely,Brando was a very kind individual. He hated when people were trampled on & he always stood up for the underdog. I so wish I could have been born alot earlier & got to meet Marlon Brando; he's definitely my obsession. Uber Gorgeous Guy.
I remember reading somewhere that Marlon was writing an autobiography and called up Ursula Andress asking if they had ever slept together. Only Brando could get away with that.
One of the best actors ever. I don’t care if he was this or that. He was under scrutiny his entire life, but here I see a number of judges that criticize assuming they are perfect (unknowns).
tf are you talking about 😂
Yes, he was the most beautiful man ever, and his intelligence was exceptional, and his talent was unlimited.
No. The most beautiful man ever is Alain Delon. Unfortunately, he always knew it.
@@maryl8103 tastes vary. I always wondered why I never felt Alain Delon was gorgeous. He was too feminine and skinny to my taste. Brando had a body like a Greek god.
@@maryl8103 Alain is ugly or average at best and not in the same league as Marlon. Sorry.
@@maryl8103yeah Delon was gorgeous. But there’s something about Marlon
@@jane_7193 I met Brando when he was in his 50's and I NEVER met such a sexy man in my whole life!
The interviewer talking with Mary Murphy from 4:51, Skip E. Low, is generally considered to be the main model for Martin Short's Jiminy Glick. The similarity is clear as a bell here!
Ha! Omg. I’m listening to him and thinking, where have I heard this voice before. Jiminy Glick. Yup.
Yes! I see it
Oh my gosh yes!
Genius! Yes! You nailed it! Hilarious!😂
Genius! Yes! You nailed it! Hilarious!😂
Rita, we have that in common! I spent over 30 years going back and leaving and going back, with my ex-husband. We finally released each other, and within a short time, he passed away. After a time, I began to heal from much of the effects, and am still aware of some further healing. I gave it all to God, through prayer and re-leases it to Him. Some thing will probably remain, as a reminder.
Marlon Brando was not only handsome but, he was a sexiest movie star in the US of A; and he of course very talented actor.
More like the sexiest movie star in the WORLD!
As a little girl, I first saw him in "The Wild One" as my teenaged sisters were crazy about him. Young Burt Reynolds always reminded me of him. Both were handsome. However, I grew up mesmerized by Elvis!
Anna Kashfi (real name Joan O'Callaghan) was born to a white Welsh mother and a white English/Irish father who worked in Calcutta, India. She mentions at 12:15 the "language barrier" between her and Brando--she was raised speaking English. She assumed an Indian identity to become and actress and to attract Brando. It worked, and when he found out her gigantic lie--split with her. Brando despised lies. And...Brando was wacky, I think we all know...but Anna was absolutely nuts--to the point where she lost custody of their son when he was a little boy, and she never regained custody of him--and this was the 1960s. Try reading her book "Brando for Breakfast" (which is unintelligible, even with a ghost writer) and you'll see for yourself. Also...she makes slip ups even in this brief interview. When asked about Brando bringing a young woman home while he was married to Kashfi, she starts off by saying she was "very pregnant" at the time, and just a minute later said that the young woman (France Nuyen) told her to not eat curry because Kashfi was breastfeeding.
Good catch …
That’s deep I need to do my research
Curry bad for breast feeding?
@@nancychandler768 I noticed that too, and thought it strange.
She definitely looks Indian, highly doubtful someone in her lineage wasn't Indian but only UK ancestry.
Marlon Brando whistled at my mom as she exited and he entered an elevator in NYC, she told us kids.
he certainly was gorgeous when he was younger... we all age and weight is a protection, it covers pain...
Yep so true, and he could've still had me in his later years, extra weight and sexually free thinking.
@@marilynchambers64 - lol...and he could mumble sweet nothings into your ear, whilst eating ice-cream... 😄
@@thetheraine 😂😂😂 Yep, and I would've enjoyed every messy minute of it.
@@marilynchambers64 - I would too... 😄
@@thetheraine 😂😂😂 I rest my case.
One Eyed Jacks, is where I saw him first. What an underrated western movie and the story for the times. Appaloosa ' of 1966 is another of his unknown absolute gems. John Saxon was tremendous in that too. Just watch it.
At the risk of repeating a terrible KZhead cliché, Saxon actually *was* underrated and virtually unremembered or remarked upon these days. I wish someone would do a Kickstarter documentary about him.
Of course my favourite was day of the triffids, a poignant and particularly beautiful portrayal
Brilliant ...my favourite western
Totally agree...I hate westerns but One Eyed Jacks was fantastic in every way.
Great video.
Breyers coffee flavored ice cream is my all-time favorite!
There was a poem in I think The Berkeley Barb published it. It was a take off on J. Alfred Prufrock and substituted Marlon Brando for Michelangelo. "In the room the women come and go speaking of Marlon Brando. It's stuck with me for low these many decades. Can't remember any of the rest of it.
T.S. Eliot's work, a good choice of a poem for tha kind pf context.
Well done. Very interesting
Thank you💓
Women loved Marlon, Marlon loved fried chicken
It was the nose that made him perfect .
the full lips and wide smile and hooded eyes also
The term animal magnetism comes to mind.
I read in his bio he broke it while play boxing and didn't repair it
"behind every Great Man is a Woman , rolling her eyes" ~ Jim Carrey a very real and humbling thought .
Exceptional content ... 💯
0:25 Stage fright? Amazing to think of that, with so many singers without her talent going on stage. She is a wonder, a living legend. I grew up listening to "Stoney End" on my kitchen radio in the '70s.
Love Rita! What an amazing woman!
Blame my mom she never told mega ma
No help
Indeed! she is. Hi darling how was your day today?
@@patrickmclaughlin3187 7
I did exactly the same with the Guys and Dolls music - still love singing along to it... I did'nt know it had always been a favourite with Barbra Streissen......
I shipped him so bad with Marylin Monroe because their both so damaged and used a lot of Women and Men as coping mechanisms. But I feel they could have healed together because they are so alike
Yeah they would’ve made a very fine couple. Even Marlon didn’t believe she committed suicide because he knew her too well.
Yeah shipped them too 😭
Love Rita as well, a very beautiful woman indeed, he didn't deserve her!!!
I always thought Barbra was a sexy woman. I had no idea Rita tried to kill herself. That's terrible. Damaged Guys are a puzzle girls want to fix, but can't, and end up getting hurt badly.
Pena pelicere ( from " One Eyed Jackes) actually did kill herself over him!
it is an act
@@erichale1971 Really? She killed herself because of Marlon Brando?
@@erichale1971and what’s your source? No one really knew the real reason behind her suicide
That cuts both ways!
A super human actor! The benchmark for other actors to aspire to. A beautiful being♥️♥️RIP terry Malloy.
Whatever you may want to say about Brando, -- good or bad, --.he lived an amazing life and was a very unique and mesmerizing performer on stage and screen.
I understand Rita’s love for him. You will do foolish things to be with him. He didn’t deserve her.
Marilyn Monroe wasn’t in this, the picture was click bait.
Marlon is the best actor that I’ve ever seen
Marlon Brando documentary with his own words collected by himself in anticipation of a book or film. LISTEN TO ME MARLON, 2015. It tells his story as he would want plus archives from his friends. He was loved and idolized by women and men but he was a pure actor who gave true & honest portrayals of these characters & roles. He was damaged, hurt & wounded & in hiding it all he really showed his vulnerabilities. Everyone has a theory about him but watch that film, Listen To Me Marlon. Marilyn and Marlon had a warm relationship but it is not covered here, as close friends and professionals who could confide in each other.
Rita Moreno is the best!!! ❤️ 💙 💜
Wow I’m 47, and now I understand why everyone talked about Marlon Brando my whole life!
Same. Seeing him young and attractive.....i had no idea. As an old man he disgusted me to watch. Leo dramatic ego vibes
@@unicornjulzThe sign of Leo? Marlon Brando was an Aries with Moon in Aries and Sagittarius rising.
@@jacquelinelongueirachoucinoas I stated he gave the leo ego vibe. Doesnt matter the sign. His personality and ego were revolting. He was attractive physically then
@@unicornjulzAries Leo and Sagittarius are all fire signs.
Stereotyped Hollywood men are funny indeed. I LOVE when he protected Native Americans though!
Too bad he didn’t protect women. I have noticed that about most men - they will go out of their way to protect minorities, gays or any group, as long as it includes men. They rarely protect or respect women. Women are far more likely to want to protect everyone.
There was a lot of talk about that at the time it happened. I heard when Brando sent the Native American woman to the Oscar's to turn down his award, they had to hold John Wayne back from jumping onstage to assault her...
Master of perception. RIP. Mr Brando. Thank you.
No, you will not see Marilyn talking about Brando, despite the image.
Thanks for telling me, I had to leave after that first dog-face.
Legend ❤️
find hard to look at this man without disgust after I learned that he actually raped Maria Schneider on set of the Last Tango in Paris. It was agreed with the director that he would do it- to have an "authentic scene". Although they later said the act did not happen in full, the scene and how it was performed was profoundly humiliating for the actress. She has never get over it. He and the director refused to even apologies to her. That is all I needed to hear.
Sexual abuse not rape, the sex wasn't real.
dude, it's kind of a hoax, actually quit on spreading BS
It's true. @@yehor_ivanov
Wow! Marlon Brando was smoking hot, there's no denying that. It's a tragedy that the disease of addiction, in many forms, was carried down through each generation to his own children. May they all RIP 🙏
Back in 1970 when they started filming The Godfather, my parents were both working in the movie business at a low level. My mother worked in catering and my father was an electrician. I would grow up hearing all kinds of stories about all sorts of people, and all sorts of goings on within that world. The stories were fascinating and some of them I recall like they were told to me only yesterday. Anyway, in 1970 there was an awful lot of anticipation and excitement about The Godfather being made, mostly because it was based on the book which had become a best seller and therefore they decided to make a movie out of it. Apparently the author of the book was absolutely dead set on having Marlon Brando play the roll of Don Corleone, so you can imagine the excitement when he agreed and filming eventually started. Back then the stars were stars (unlike today) and the funny thing about Marlon Brando is that my parents never met him and I have just completely wasted your time.
It's funny how you just commented this and I'm just happening upon it
Nice!
Yeah, I think it's called The Vacuum of Time.@@darkwa2000
Get lost then...
I Just realized that Skip E. Lowe, the man interviewing Mary Murphy, must be the inspiration for Martin Short's character, Jiminy Glick.
Thanks! I didn't know Mr. Lowe's name. Yes, I agree. Martin Short absolutely modeled Jiminy Glick off Skip E. Lowe. "Let's SHOW this scene!!!" sounds just like Glick.
Glick is brilliant!!! I think the voice inflections Short uses come from Merv Griffin as well.
Yeah, I’m sure you just realised that and didn’t just read previous comments.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣YES!
Guys and Dolls was a great show. Some friends liked it so much, we went to a show and sang the chorus of songs. Partly because there weren't a lot of other people there. And we knew the words
Brando was brilliant as an actor but I think it depends on who you talk to about his personality. I’ve heard good and bad things about him. R.I.P. Marlon🌺
Yes, Sophia Loren wasn't too impressed with him, she said he had little respect for women, but she also said that he had other emotional issues and understood him more as she got older. This is her opinion.
@@51Saffron Yes, it’s pretty much all options!!
I think it’s usually not black and white when it comes to people. Sometimes people just don’t get along. Sometimes pride issues cause issues in relationships. Some people are great fathers but horrible husbands, vice verse. Some people are who are douchey, sometimes deep down have a great heart. I think Brando, as he got older became really jaded, from what I heard he wasn’t the most present father, but he also did a lot of great charity work. So yeah I think it’s just each person has their good and bad qualities. The media and especially social media nowadays, want it to be black and white, and assign people by who’s good and who’s bad, and that’s just not how life works.
@SkyNet General What’s not true?!
Some would describe him as a narcissist but I am not a psychologist.
Oh yes! I agree with Barbra. Marlon was magnetic. He could be Mark Antony or Sky Masterson. He was the best actor ever and gorgeously seductive.
Lowered expectations by women back then. That’s why we need to stay empowered now in 2022. We deserve more in a partner.
how are women going to stay empowered when they don't even have a standard on who gets to be a woman and who gets to enter women only spaces?
Women today need spousal support to survive.
Your partner will be a cat
We deserve more in a partner, Until then, MIGTOW
@@TheRentro03 so not true...🙄. We are warriors who might CHOOSE to have a spouse to hold space for us. But we don't necessarily NEED one...
Shelley Winters...such a great lady and stage actress.
He had an Absolutely Gorgeous Perfect Face, Amazing Features.
Depends on the camera angle with him. There are a lot of shots that don’t flatter him. I wouldn’t compare him to, say, Rock Hudson or Cary Grant, who could be photographed from any angle.
With a puny voice that was hardly masculine...I'll pass. I don't understand these women falling all over that.
He was not the super handsome guy, not unattractive, but a more bad boy look with fame. I respect him because weak women get what they deserve.
He was interesting looking, and he did have the classic thespian look, but I don’t see beauty. Maybe his lips make him lean towards beautiful, and the women run with it.
I didnt know he was such a sex symbol. Now cary grant? Wubba wubba
Rita is gorgeous at 80, stunner when she was young.
Famous rock groupie Pam Des Barres told in her book how she got Brando’s phone number, called him and begged him to sleep with her - and how he nicely tried to talk her out of it, saying that in her mind she was really going after something else. She did feel there was a moment when he might have done it.
Probably saved him from a lifetime of herpes.
Was she 13 or 15 at the time? 17? Yes I believe he would have slept with anyone. Men still generally don't like desperate women tho, especially when EVERY woman wants you like him.
Marlon was queer.
@@Jonathan-pp3du He was bisexual.
@@MsAppassionata Yeah. Almost the same thing.
The person interviewing Mary Murphy is Skip E Lowe. He was the basis for Martin Short's Jiminy Glick character, which I could really see in this interview.
I loved ❤️ the interviewer.
A gifted actor who looked great on screen. Very few can make those two claims. Almost overnight he was given the keys to the kingdom. In some ways like a lottery grand prize winner. He had no experience or family support on handling all of that properly. So it is natural that Brando colored outside the lines more than a few times. An endless line of beautiful women signed up for some quality time with Marlon. He is not a messiah. He is a human being with flaws like all of us. Let's forgive his trespasses.
oh my god do a little research, he was a complete shithead
Well-said
He sizzles!!!!
The punished Brando becomes apparent during his performance in Last Tango in Paris
It's strange that so many people seem to know nothing about animal magnetism. Brando from everything that women said about him obviously had that in spades as well as his classically handsomeness. I remember reading about a serial killer that people said looked like a silverback gorilla and even the female cops said he was sexually all but irresistible.
Brando was so bloody awesome.
He was human and ultimately turned into a beast.
Why because he got fat? That’s your parameter for being a beast?!
@@piranha5506 No, that must be your projection.
He got old . It happens
By what standards?🤨
Stella!!!
That cat was cool!
I think he was a narcissistic sociopath but who cares! I'm 49 but even looking at him on screen makes me in love LOL.
Rite Murino is adorable! One of the classiest and beautiful actresses ever! I wish she had been in more movies so I could have seen more of her. May God Bless Her.
Brando wasn’t the first to bring passion to the silver screen. Valentino was every bit the same. My father told me when Valentino died, the girls in his office cried. He was probably the best actor in history.
People don't really know love. We're aren't fully encouraged to find out what it really is. Most people engage in the lower aspects of it.
