Sounds like God "made him an offer he couldn't refuse..."

Is a shame, there really are no more actors like that turning up in Hollywood these days. THat man was truly one of the greats.

He certainly was a great actor in his prime. 

There is an interesting article in today's USAToday talking about today's movie stars and comparing them to those from the past.  How nowdays it seems that it's mainly the good looking pretty boys who get the parts whether they are right for them or not.  Hollywood needs more men who are men, not pinups.

What a sad day in Hollywood.  Marlon Brando was a talented man. (albeit weird man)  Rest in peace.

Stella!

Another great one has passed on. There are very few of the young actors out there now that will become worthy of being called great and we are loosing the the great ones far faster than they are being replaced.
