I’m a quarter into comments after watching this and I’m so thrilled to see people like yourself perfectly summarize what is whirling through my head. You nailed it. Thank you
Most Definitely. So many Directors have said it's better being behind the camera rather than in front of the camera. I think you can look at every situation as being a positive as well as a negative. Everything has 2 sides.
@Harold Paulle A person who is a narcissist is fake. There is nothing real about them. They're a construct which is why you find so many in the acting profession because they've spent their whole lives acting. I hope that helps to explain . Also narcissists are 6.2% of the population so there's no shortage of them .
That's why the French Monarchy introduced universal Manners to teach the plebs not to act naturally in public. Tbf they had a point you have to act a bit to keep society going.
Ooh , most people do say what they think about me , especially behind my back..! It’s happened to me many times .., same people smiling, being all so sweet and kind to my face, behind my back it’s another story. It’s very cunning but it’s human nature..! Also, we do speak our minds most of the time., in general we can say whatever we want but we choose not to in certain circumstances, because we are taught to behave with restraint, self- awareness and discipline in difficult situations..! And even if we want to curse our employer or another jerk at our job we are all too aware that if we do, we will have to quit our job right after doing so., or we will get terminated for speaking our mind . And we can behave recklessly and say anything that we want so we can be authentic but we have to accept the consequences also. Authenticity doesn’t mean we blur out first thing that comes to mind, authenticity means that we are being genuine with ourselves, and true to our own values and ethics. I do believe most people say what they want even though many say it behind your back., but in general people speak their minds especially to lovers, friends and acquaintances., only time people refrain from saying what they want is when they’re employed by someone and their livelihood depends on them being able to conduct themselves in a professional manner and refrain from cursing and telling the jerk to take a hike. And actually many people do say what they want even to people who hold power above them., especially when they reach a point where they don’t care and are tired of mistreatment.
"That's part of the sickness in America, that you have to think in terms of who wins, who loses, who's good, who's bad, who's best, who's worst. We always think in those terms, and extreme terms. I don't like to think that way. Everybody has their own value in a different way." ---- Brando being insightful here.
That's not America, that is humanity. Most societies are defined in terms of who is the best, who is the smartest, who can amass the most, and use this criteria to judge winners and losers. Contests and competitions are concepts known the world over, even in isolated and primitive societies.
There are plenty of strong actors in the US. Each era finds new faces to take over the stage. I remember Brando as a powerful actor, and I recall him as slovenly, articulate, and treated the public with disdane.
he's a genuine enigma, like an onion, there are layers & layers of this guy you can try and unravel but fail at reaching the core, un vrai mystère avec du talent en abondance
An American original. No one these days can replace him..his originality, his passion, his sense of humor and acting genius. He didn't take himself seriously and knows that the simple things in life are only what matter. A lesson for us all.
It was a different time. Back then your could say fuck you and fuck off. Now the left have a monopoly on the entertainment industry. The actors today are slaves.

@@Ashish-xm9ol The same as the one and only Bruce lee did--he expressed himself-------as did all of the other greats Eastwood, Mcqueen, bronson etc, we all know they were the real deal --well dont we???
Brando is authentically himself and thoroughly disgusted with "American ""culture"" and the whole film industry. *he is also a tormented soul who sees life as a mystery and a dilemma. in his soul, he is a staunch humanist that is outraged by the atrocities of Man and Nature.*
@@crowdpleaser54 Yes. Well... on second thought, Eldridge Cleaver. Maybe. Certainly not invented by Marlon, who could have offered attribution to the quote.
@willie billie he wasn't being a dipshit, he hated acting and always wanted to avoid talking about it, that's why he always have this line to interviewers
@MACK D maybe I said it a bit wrong, he didn't really hate acting, but he hated Hollywood and the whole industry, and that's why avoided talking About his movies and acting
Marlon Brando was ahead of his time and gifted actor with natural talent. I admire him for his activism for Native Americans. He was a genius, and his legacy will continue to live on through his films.
I feel Brando could have existed in any time and still would have been this big. Such a soul this man was. The world needs to see a resurgence of the caliber of actors, filmmakers and writers as existed in his generation. These that have a timeless quality about them.
NOW more than EVER BEFORE. The wokeness of hollywood infected so many braindead zombiefied people of America, and its become a cesspool of Degeneracy. There was a surgence of Hollywood Quality from 1990s- 2014, the MeToo movement destroyed the strong male characters, and hollywood FEARS to portray a man as a Man. Has confused sex and gender to the point absurdity, and cant CREATE anything new or unique at all anymore. Its degenerated into a COPY and CUT and PASTE fakery of remakes and "reIMagining" or "Policitical Correctness Insanity" and actors based on the color of their skin and NEVER their MERIT anymore. It doesnt matter if they have actual TALENT, it just depends on how many WOKE DEI check boxes they have on their resume. sickening and degenerate.
Yes. He lived an amazing life, and had amazing performances before the camera. He also had A LOT of existential angst,...particularly on the historic mistreatment of blacks and native Americans.
Take it from a retired actor and member of the actors studio - Brando was a pig. He had no soul. He could walk into you, throw you against a wall, and never apologize.
Marlon Brando is that rare type of personality. Wise, artistically gifted, an real observer of the world around him and not afraid to express his observations clearly. One of my heroes ... a true LEGEND.
Must say, to interview this great man, be honest,be blunt, don’t be patronising, he can see through it.try to listen to him,don’t listen to your overinflated ego.This man is a legend,let him flow.
Reading the comments on this video gives me hope in humanity. For so long I’ve wondered why people only remember one side of Brando & forget everything he did for human rights etc. He didn’t care what people thought about him, he just wanted to help. He was all class, a deep thinker & a true Gentleman 🥰 Rest In Paradise Marlon ❤️ Your real legacy lives on 🙌🏾 x
I have always loved Marlon.... even more after this candid, smart, inspiring interview.... he looked into our eyes when he spoke and spoke honestly. I love that.
I love watching Marlon's interviews. He never fails to confound the interviewers by answering them without using the cliches they are anticipating. Connie is totally thrown off her game in this. I'm surprised it even aired.
I wouldnt be so hard on her. She adapted quickly and got him to laugh a number of times which was revealing. At the end of the day her questions gave him an opportunity to reveal himself in the way he responded. Job done.
Connie Chung always looked Spaced out in interviews. Brando loves to talk about everything except acting. He never got into the pomposity of it all. He saw it as a job and not that interesting to talk about.
@@giovanna722 anyone is selfish at some point on their life. Donating your entire salary towards a cause you believe in…I’d be hard pressed to find anyone to do that lol
Most handsome man ever lived in his prime topped off with extreme intelligence and the first actor ever to be an activist for human rights against race and colour
I truly loved this interview, and don't agree with those that look at Brando as a nut. He was a very deep thinker and understood more about the world around him that he was given credit for. Definitely worth the watch.
I think he was a kid at heart, a prankster, but very very intelligent and particularly insightful. He read people very well, and he wasn't very patient with poseurs.
@@DBEdwards... What makes to think, feel, express emotion, love etc... your physical body is the vehicle for those human characteristics in the Physical world of matter, the non physical world is the Spiritual world what they refer to as the anti-matter. Love is the Ultimate Master and the highest energy vibration in the Universe.
I love his voice and the way he talks . For some reason it's comforting to me. The way he speaks to Connie and his Lodgic and reasoning. 😁 I'm 55 so maybe he reminds me of my Granfather who just said it like he taught it was . My family is Dutch and survived WWII in the Netherlands. People that have been through bad things and living on very little just understand each other.
MARLON stopped doing stage acting because it was so many hours and work and the money wasn't there as in films. I think that he is authentic and I also think that marlon Brando is a genius!
20:09: this right here is the essence of the interview but she blew it. He’s talking about the genocide of the American Indians, something he is clearly passionate about, and she completely changes tack to talk about being a movie star. How frustrating! All he wants is to connect with someone, but it’s over her head. I hate it when people run away from difficult issues. It’s just mental laziness and a lack of self-reflection.
Simply brilliant. She did not understand Brando's complete lack of respect for all things which are governed, controlled and manipulated by societies. It's refreshing to see a guy challenge his interviewer, whilst remaining calm and true to himself.
He is brilliant here and does a superb job at showing just how stupid she really is. I think that was the only reason he didn't leave the interview because he was having too much fun showing her up. She sure made it easy.
@@annanirathsi1111 what in god's name are you talking about? this is a softball interview, with the interviewer basically giving the floor to brando, so he can throw out aphorisms, ramble, and complain a bunch about Dry White Season. you must have ADHD or something, because you couldn't possibly have described this interview less accurately
Well, it was a clash of ideals here… Connie Chung herself represents “all things governed, controlled and manipulated”… and Brando is directly confronted with what she represents in this interview.
Those who parodied Marlon and made fun of him calling him crazy weren’t worth the dirt under his feet! He is forever the greatest legend, they are all but forgotten. Marlon Brando was an enigma!
pff ok fangirl and all the abuse accusations were just fantasies from jealous people right? Also from his own daughter who said he was abusive and comitted suicide! He got accused of raping indogene people on the islands he was on set! Also he got canceled cause he asked the production teams horrific services and lived on the neverland ranch where surely "nothing happenend.."! The biggest disgustings are seen as the biggest heros.
Gias Ahmed many men and women found this great man a spectacular actor and a wise man in many areas, not just acting. He was ahead of time and my guess is these are the people who don't like or understand him . Thanks for video for all to appreciate Mr. Brando.
I now realize that Marlon was ahead of his time. He knew he was a great actor, he did it, made money, was recognized for his talents. He could get or buy anything he wanted. He was not going to ignore the plight of others, nor try to spend his life trying to stay young and relevant. He lived. Those not so great, try to extend what once was.
I agree, but i don't think he was ahead of his time.. Reading the meditations by Marcus Auerelius, you see that people have been having these realisations for thousands of years.
so if talking about equal rights for blacks and american indians during the early 60s, and going against all the establishment traditions during the 50s, and talking about the news as a business in 65, wasnt being ahead of his time, than i cant help you....
funny how people call Brando crazy because he isnt following a script or acting like an android. this is what is called being free and being comfortable in your own skin. most of the world should try that sometime
There is a lot to love about this interview. One thing I loved aside from Brando and his way of thinking is how beautiful the environment is. How it went from sun up to sun down while the interview took place. From under the sun to under the moon.
Everyone back then was too focused on trying to be an actor.Few alternatives listened to his personal opinions about the state of the world.He made a speech with Michael Jackson and everyone was distracted and not listening to him about social/political/cultural issues.
Everything that is wrong with the world today encapsulated in one interview. Forget actor; Brando was one of the greatest human beings of all time. AjC
He was brilliant and way ahead of his time...he knew human nature so well and Connie missed a true opportunity to interview a great thinker far ahead of his time and true humanitarian...She robbed us of glimpse of a deep philosophical brilliance of not only a great actor and a wise man...but one of the most intelligent person of his time..his words hold true today more than they did when he said them...The Plato of the acting world.. he gave us true genius and she kept missing the mark in this interview she had know clue what he was talking about...his mind was truly brilliant and I wish we could have heard more interviews from this great actor by someone that could actually appreciate his brilliance...She was clueless who cares about his weight.. her brain is as light as a feather....he talked circles around her I am embarrassed for her...
I love his candor and the fact that he tells it like it is. He has a unique sense of humor and perspective of this world. What a great actor... he was great in the movie The Score with Robert Deniro near the end of his career.
She was intimidated by him, she didn't know how to speak to him. Because he was so down to earth and genuine... not a cocky actor that she can interrogate with stupid questions...I love this guy
@@killerdude35 Damn right! haha. Can't imagine the talent you need to have in order to be able to read the lines on the spot and still act it out naturally and believable. Dude was a once in a life time type of person.
Back in the day Brando seemed crazy, but man, he was ahead of his time. I watched that whole interview and thought he was friggin brilliant. His position on the genocide of the native people may have seemed radical to some back then, but not today. I love the last line he gives. It makes me laugh and cry all at the same time.
It ("his position") didn't 'seem' anything. It was bullsh*t then, it's bullsh*t now, and such 'position' will forever amount to a pile of bullsh*t. It's called 'progress', fool. No one owns the land, those with the better ideas and the wherewithal to implement get "say-so" in the matter. Let's hear what good ol' Marlon or _you've_ got to say about the unspeakable savagery of the so-called indigenous peoples of the 'New World' exhibited even among their more advanced tribes to the south. Exactly. Not much, unless it's heavily sugar-coated, to put it mildly. Enough already with the pathetically silly, disingenuous, relentless vilification of "the white man" - for if not for the Caucasian male(with an assist from his Asian brethren and the support of his female) we'd still be living in the stone-age.
NOW more than EVER BEFORE we need Actors of his genius and mindset. The wokeness of hollywood infected so many braindead zombiefied people of America, and its become a cesspool of Degeneracy. There was a surgence of Hollywood Quality from 1990s- 2014, the MeToo movement destroyed the strong male characters, and hollywood FEARS to portray a man as a Man.

He's so disgusted with the mediocrity & apathy around him. He wasn't allowed to take it up a notch & make it real. So he bowed out disgusted with it all. This is what happens when you're serious about your life & purpose. He's not your clown.
@Fred and lobster whisperer, You both are right It's not this or that. It's both. He's a person just like anyone else, having to earn money. Get some bread on the table. So in the beginning, he wasn't as pickey . But later on he wanted to his own ideas into practice. But walked into the Hollywood wall. And that frustrated him very much. You see him saying 'you're making me very angry now to Connie.
@@Ve-suvius True, you said what I intentionally left out thinking ppl would see it as obvious. But some ppl need everything spelled out. Most artists initially bend with the wind to rack up enough money to secure themselves. Once there, they think they can go & truly express what they think. And thats when they're smacked down by the politic. Its true of any job once you ascend high enough. Institutions are rackets built upon the naivety of the masses.
@@FredHandle1 I don't blame him. Most people are into jobs in which their heart is not really into. Some have the opportunity to do what they love and make money with it. Whether it's sports or acting or something else. Marlon didn't do so bad. Although I have seen him talk bad about the profession of acting. Not being proud of it. Something like that. I do think he 'probably' was a person with inner conflicts as well. You have to do this, but you're expected to do that. You need money. So what do you do. He was accused of being a selfish person. Regarding women and/or movie roles. I see hatred in comments and also blind adoration. He's 'probably' just human. And a bit of a philosopher as well. I like that part of him. The Thinker Marlon Brando.
@@FredHandle1 Your words makes me think of the words of Travis ( Robert De Niro)in the Movie Taxi Driver. "I realize now how much she's just like the others, cold and distant, and many people are like that, women for sure, they're like a union." Hollywood is a union also. Haha. Emptiness rules them all. Many movies come from Hollywood. The special effects get better and better. But the storielines and dialogues can be way better than what is seen too often. The historical movies as well. Whether it is about Romans , Greek. Too much playboy atmosphere instead of trying to create the atmosphere from back then.
@@Ve-suvius For me, I can identify closely with his plight bc I suffered a similar trip in my career & made the same radical decisions. Yes he was a radical idealist seeking a better world, a great soul that doesn't belong. A dreamer in a dreamless mostly instinctive human culture. Its the result of being rapped up in ones self & not realizing the make up of the majority of ppl around us. He was obviously tortured by his own, high moral character & never could see that he's in a robotic herd of driven consumers. The herd follow the guys in the front, not bc they're leaders who know where they're going but merely bc they're in the front. That makes ppl followers by nature & debating leadership qualities with them over-heats their their mind & nets you insults like "your crazy..etc". A viable solution may be, to sneak to the front by prostituting one's self to hoard massive money by any means. Several mega recording artists have tried that route, they corrupted themselves only to bump against big brother/king. And kings are smart, they got ppl where they want them & can see you coming & they murder competition. Most efforts will never work bc the core of the majority of humanity is not on-board. So why kill yourself over a sea of creatures devoid of honor & no aspiration. The sheep are happy in the barn, why you wanna build rockets...lulz Its God who grants man intellect or curses him to stupidity & hence it takes a God. Thats Brando should've realised & saved himself. Sorry for digressing rgds
I love when he talks to the camera, that's when you know he's talking right to you, the audience, sending a message and not simply answering interview questions.
Even at 65, overweight, with gray hair loss, and a sort of somber melancholy about him, he still sparkles and shines once that incomparable smile lights up on his face
Also- He was still charming, charismatic, and very very interesting when he wanted to be. I just don’t think he wanted to show it. He could have went into that interview and faked answers, faked laughs and faked smiles, but he was a genuine man. He was always ahead of his time. A true acting genius. I loved his autobiography too. It was a very interesting read and I finished it in 2 days. I will always have this weird, special love for Brando whom I never even met
Brando is very charismatic. Also a man who knows who he is, but without the ego. A rare trait amongst actors. Also, Chung did a great job? To get an interview like this today, just wouldn't happen. Too many actors who want to protect their image to the point of being boring.
That’s so exaggerated. He was a good actor amongst many other great actors. But to say he was the greatest is so so exaggerated, and im pretty sure Brando himself would rather agree with me than with someone saying he was the greatest actor.
My goodness.... I am intrigued, humbled, and grateful to watch and deeply listen to this man. I am 35 years old but as a child remember my dad watching The God Father at least once a week. Never knew what he found so fascinating about the movie but as I sit here watching this now I NOW UNDERSTAND. This man was one of the best actors in movies but in reality he wasn’t much of an actor at all! Very genuine and intelligent man❤️. Can portray just about any character but in reality he was just unapologetically HIMSELF........intellectual, fair, intense/passionate, brutally honest, somewhat childlike, self-aware, intelligent, and charming. I have a crush on his soul❤️, and when he was younger DEFINITELY HAD A CRUSH ON HIS FACE❤️
Marlon Brando wasn't crazy. It might have driven him mad the way some interviewers keep ignoring what he says and asking the same question. But he was a genius, and very passionate about life and respecting other human beings.
Yes. For example, Brando was talking about free will which Brando said was, "an interesting conversation" (at the 29:52 mark) and the moment he started on this very interesting topic Connie Chung feigned boredom and pretended to fall asleep. I would have loved to hear what Brando had to say but Connie Chung unfunnily and rudely cut him off. Why did she do that? That I don't understand.
Marlon Brando was a great man....I agree completely with YodaLorian's comment.....Just try and find a selfless, not politically correct actor or actress today that compares with these absolutely great actors of times past, like Marlon Brando.
He knew what Hollywood was all about. Rejecting the Oscar was his only real power to shine a spotlight on the real social and economic issues that Hollywood WAS NOT addressing, because they weren't blockbuster movie earners in the minds of studio execs. Rather than engage in a pointless exercise of forgettable Oscar-night hobnobbing and self-adulation, he actually achieved much much more for the ordinary everyday Native Americans. Marlon Brando was a great man.
@@sunkkist Indeed. An intelligent, sensitive man. A good man...that's why so many people considered him a weirdo. He had dignity and integrity, so yeah, he was uncommon.
I disagree with you saying Marlon Brando is not politically correct....he was actually very politically correct. It's just that he was PC before we used the term PC...
Marlon Brando is still laughing his ass off at all of the people that believed they knew & understood him ! Keep laughing Marlon they will finally get it one day ! Never mind, they never will !
He couldn't contain himself when all she came up with was DL. I laughed hysterically at his reaction...frozen in time, like, what!? he had to do something or otherwise he would have been on the floor in hysterics. Ironically, he was talking about finding laughter in one's life.
Want to thank Marlon Brando for the entertainment he has given me. Wish he made more movies. Thank you for being a voice for native people of the lands.
Brando just too intelligent and smart for this interviewer...the questions were just pathetic. Rest in peace Marlon. You certainly always had the last laugh.
Huh?madness?He was crystal clear .You must be like another Connie,and just don't get him intellectually and so must discredit his brilliance and call it "madness".I bet you know nothing about brilliance , or madness for that matter.
I loved that man, and I.also loved Connie Chung. And yes, he could have played the lead romantic role at that age, hell yes ! He was such a deep, charismatic man.
Brando was an incredibly gifted individual and his charisma truly dominated the screen...he also had a great understanding for human nature and in my personal opinion he knew how to use his charisma to manipulate the perception of the audience off screen, and viewed as an enigmatic personality... He was truly remarkable and his acting on screen was a tiny aspect of the genius he really was...
Aw, man! That was so short! I could have watched for two hours. What an interesting character. If according to him, we're all acting, then he has created one of the most interesting characters ever and he is extremely entertaining.
I agree, however, he treated his relationships with women(don't know about men) rather badly. Lots and lots of infidelity and dare I say, cruel? Or, maybe, simply insensitive and without empathy. He strikes me as someone who really struggled with loving and being loved. But, he was not perfect....he had lots of childhood trauma. RIP Marlon!
@@funshine817 He has great capacity to feel and have empathy, but his own demons requires constant self upkeep. In other words, lots of patience for others, but deeply wounded to be consistent enough and needed his own space and contemplation for long periods of time therefore alienating others.
You really can see in his acting what he meant when he said you can't act unless you are what you are, who you are. Brilliant! His acting is just like his interviews....real!
“I come from an Irish background. I think one of the defenses you find for people who are saddened, such as the Irish... life is too grim generally for most people, and when you’re down to your last nickel, and your last hope, I think all that you have left is laughter.”
30:00 he's about to say something very profound about the fact that you can't control your life, and the twin experiment, but she cuts him off like an idiot.
He had nothing to say, so she was saving his ass, that's the skill of the interviewer and why he's laughing about it. In fact he's consistently laughing in this interview, meaning he's completely comfortable with it
Marlon is the man who came back down from the mountain heights of fame to tell us that there is nothing there.
I’m a quarter into comments after watching this and I’m so thrilled to see people like yourself perfectly summarize what is whirling through my head.
You nailed it. Thank you
I've always loved movie stars that loathe being a movie star. It's like an oxymoron that's a bit comical and charming.
He *now* doesn't think that there is nothing behind the *real* mountain.
Barry Gibb referred to what is phony in Public Performance as The Illusion
100% right on
he hated the fakeness, the superficiality of the film industry. much respect.
And of Connie Chung. And her vapid stupidity on full display here.
Most Definitely. So many Directors have said it's better being behind the camera rather than in front of the camera. I think you can look at every situation as being a positive as well as a negative. Everything has 2 sides.
That's pretty ironic given the guy was a narcissist. Can't get much more fake then that.
@Harold Paulle A person who is a narcissist is fake. There is nothing real about them. They're a construct which is why you find so many in the acting profession because they've spent their whole lives acting.
I hope that helps to explain . Also narcissists are 6.2% of the population so there's no shortage of them .

People are strange.That's all of us.
If you really think about it, Brando's exactly right‼️HE said acting is a survival mechanism that people use every single day just to keep the peace‼️

I don't like to think that way. Everybody has their own value in a different way." ---- Brando being insightful here.
That's not America, that is humanity. Most societies are defined in terms of who is the best, who is the smartest, who can amass the most, and use this criteria to judge winners and losers. Contests and competitions are concepts known the world over, even in isolated and primitive societies.

There are plenty of strong actors in the US. Each era finds new faces to take over the stage. I remember Brando as a powerful actor, and I recall him as slovenly, articulate, and treated the public with disdane.
he's a genuine enigma, like an onion, there are layers & layers of this guy you can try and unravel but fail at reaching the core, un vrai mystère avec du talent en abondance
An American original. No one these days can replace him..his originality, his passion, his sense of humor and acting genius. He didn't take himself seriously and knows that the simple things in life are only what matter. A lesson for us all.
It was a different time. Back then your could say fuck you and fuck off. Now the left have a monopoly on the entertainment industry. The actors today are slaves.

@@Ashish-xm9ol The same as the one and only Bruce lee did--he expressed himself-------as did all of the other greats Eastwood, Mcqueen, bronson etc, we all know they were the real deal --well dont we???
Brando is authentically himself and thoroughly disgusted with "American ""culture"" and the whole film industry. *he is also a tormented soul who sees life as a mystery and a dilemma.
in his soul, he is a staunch humanist that is outraged by the atrocities of Man and Nature.*
This interview is awesome. I think Marlon Brando is my new hero. Who cares what society thinks? He was more wise than society.
He is no more wiser than society.
He simply lets go of the pretension that his position afforded him

@@crowdpleaser54 Yes. Well... on second thought, Eldridge Cleaver. Maybe. Certainly not invented by Marlon, who could have offered attribution to the quote.

Love a REAL interview. He’s not crazy, he’s free.

everybody in life is an actor!!! - NAILED IT
@willie billie he wasn't being a dipshit, he hated acting and always wanted to avoid talking about it, that's why he always have this line to interviewers
@willie billie He is just different, let's leave it at that, rather than calling him names.
@MACK D maybe I said it a bit wrong, he didn't really hate acting, but he hated Hollywood and the whole industry, and that's why avoided talking About his movies and acting
Sooo true!
Pure BS
Maybe he and his Italian jewish buddies are scammers and actors.
But most decent people are just being themselves most of the time.
Marlon Brando was ahead of his time and gifted actor with natural talent. I admire him for his activism for Native Americans.
He was a genius, and his legacy will continue to live on through his films.
What an absolutely fascinating man Brando was. One of a kind.
I feel Brando could have existed in any time and still would have been this big. Such a soul this man was. The world needs to see a resurgence of the caliber of actors, filmmakers and writers as existed in his generation. These that have a timeless quality about them.
NOW more than EVER BEFORE. The wokeness of hollywood infected so many braindead zombiefied people of America, and its become a cesspool of Degeneracy. There was a surgence of Hollywood Quality from 1990s- 2014, the MeToo movement destroyed the strong male characters, and hollywood FEARS to portray a man as a Man. Has confused sex and gender to the point absurdity, and cant CREATE anything new or unique at all anymore. Its degenerated into a COPY and CUT and PASTE fakery of remakes and "reIMagining" or "Policitical Correctness Insanity" and actors based on the color of their skin and NEVER their MERIT anymore. It doesnt matter if they have actual TALENT, it just depends on how many WOKE DEI check boxes they have on their resume. sickening and degenerate.
Absolutely right. I can't stop watching him
Yes. He lived an amazing life, and had amazing performances before the camera.
He also had A LOT of existential angst,...particularly on the historic mistreatment of blacks and native Americans.
You gave the perfect adjective for him, timeless.
Take it from a retired actor and member of the actors studio - Brando was a pig. He had no soul. He could walk into you, throw you against a wall, and never apologize.
Marlon Brando is that rare type of personality. Wise, artistically gifted, an real observer of the world around him and not afraid to express his observations clearly. One of my heroes ... a true LEGEND.
Boy he looks much older than 65!
Most Definitely the Best of the Best, they'll never be another Marlon Brando, Most Gorgeous Guy to walk the Earth.
And don’t forget…a real horndog!

I was left with nothing but respect for this man. His brutal honesty, heart and wisdom . Great interview👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Must say, to interview this great man, be honest,be blunt, don’t be patronising, he can see through it.try to listen to him,don’t listen to your overinflated ego.This man is a legend,let him flow.
Reading the comments on this video gives me hope in humanity. For so long I’ve wondered why people only remember one side of Brando & forget everything he did for human rights etc. He didn’t care what people thought about him, he just wanted to help. He was all class, a deep thinker & a true Gentleman 🥰 Rest In Paradise Marlon ❤️ Your real legacy lives on 🙌🏾 x
he was hated from about 1962 until his death...that says a lot about the decline of the west...in the world of the blind, the one-eyed man is king
I have always loved Marlon.... even more after this candid, smart, inspiring interview.... he looked into our eyes when he spoke and spoke honestly. I love that.
I love watching Marlon's interviews. He never fails to confound the interviewers by answering them without using the cliches they are anticipating. Connie is totally thrown off her game in this. I'm surprised it even aired.
I was curious what was cut and what actually aired.
Connie was just so incompetent. This man needed someone much smarter.
I wouldnt be so hard on her. She adapted quickly and got him to laugh a number of times which was revealing. At the end of the day her questions gave him an opportunity to reveal himself in the way he responded. Job done.
@@Fractalite yes, he revealed himself to be too smart for her. But I respect your view even if I don’t agree with it.
Connie Chung always looked Spaced out in interviews. Brando loves to talk about everything except acting. He never got into the pomposity of it all. He saw it as a job and not that interesting to talk about.
Thank you Mr Brando for keeping it so real
What an honest person he was. Fabulous actor, but a very intelligent individual. Was not afraid to say what he thought.
Unlike these PC actors these days. 😒
It's as if you have no idea who Brndo was, at all.
I think Marlon would have made a great President.
@@bonanzajoe He wouldn't run, he knows how corrupt the political game is.
He was also a woman beater and terrible father.

Do you know when was the last time i spent 40 minutes listening to an actor talking? Never, that`s when.
Less than 40 minutes 😂
I love him for his honesty and he is a brave, selflessness, and true person
And Connie Chung intervied him!
He certainly wasn't selfless. He would have been the first to admit how selfish he could be.

I truly loved this interview, and don't agree with those that look at Brando as a nut. He was a very deep thinker and understood more about the world around him that he was given credit for. Definitely worth the watch.
I think he was a kid at heart, a prankster, but very very intelligent and particularly insightful. He read people very well, and he wasn't very patient with poseurs.
Chung was a complete poseur and dimwit.

I love his voice and the way he talks . For some reason it's comforting to me. The way he speaks to Connie and his Lodgic and reasoning. 😁 I'm 55 so maybe he reminds me of my Granfather who just said it like he taught it was . My family is Dutch and survived WWII in the Netherlands. People that have been through bad things and living on very little just understand each other.
MARLON stopped doing stage acting because it was so many hours and work and the money wasn't there as in films.
I think that he is authentic and I also think that marlon Brando is a genius!
Marlon was of part Dutch descent. His last name was German.
Very deep and profound man
Interesting thoughts from Brando about life being a mystery
The interviewer spoiled it

he was so brilliant in the roles he did
Marlon Brando is a fascinating human. I could listen to him speak his truth for hours. He is absolutely authentic continuously.
20:09: this right here is the essence of the interview but she blew it. He’s talking about the genocide of the American Indians, something he is clearly passionate about, and she completely changes tack to talk about being a movie star. How frustrating! All he wants is to connect with someone, but it’s over her head. I hate it when people run away from difficult issues. It’s just mental laziness and a lack of self-reflection.
Well said
Simply brilliant. She did not understand Brando's complete lack of respect for all things which are governed, controlled and manipulated by societies. It's refreshing to see a guy challenge his interviewer, whilst remaining calm and true to himself.
He is brilliant here and does a superb job at showing just how stupid she really is. I think that was the only reason he didn't leave the interview because he was having too much fun showing her up. She sure made it easy.
@@annanirathsi1111 what in god's name are you talking about? this is a softball interview, with the interviewer basically giving the floor to brando, so he can throw out aphorisms, ramble, and complain a bunch about Dry White Season. you must have ADHD or something, because you couldn't possibly have described this interview less accurately
And she was increasingly obnoxious
The mastery of emotion on all levels
Well, it was a clash of ideals here… Connie Chung herself represents “all things governed, controlled and manipulated”… and Brando is directly confronted with what she represents in this interview.
What a moving interview. God bless his Soul. His words were definitely light years before his time.
Those who parodied Marlon and made fun of him calling him crazy weren’t worth the dirt under his feet! He is forever the greatest legend, they are all but forgotten. Marlon Brando was an enigma!
he was beyond all the fame he truly is and was amazing
My thoughts exactly. Marlon Brando was a one of a kind. I so wish I knew him. He's Uber Gorgeous & the Greatest Actor of all time.
pff ok fangirl and all the abuse accusations were just fantasies from jealous people right? Also from his own daughter who said he was abusive and comitted suicide! He got accused of raping indogene people on the islands he was on set! Also he got canceled cause he asked the production teams horrific services and lived on the neverland ranch where surely "nothing happenend.."! The biggest disgustings are seen as the biggest heros.
He is definitely a little crazy... That doesn't take away from other attributes but it is what it is.
He had mental illness...and was an A-HOLE on top of that
This man saw the world for what it is.. To me, his greatness as a human and his wisdom superseded his acting achievements...
Gentlemen, your aggressive remarks make me want to dig a hole and hide... We all have our reasons to like(or dislike) larger than life characters...

Gias Ahmed many men and women found this great man a spectacular actor and a wise man in many areas, not just acting. He was ahead of time and my guess is these are the people who don't like or understand him . Thanks for video for all to appreciate Mr. Brando.
He's an asshole. A great actor, yes but still an asshole.
Gias Ahmed agreed
I now realize that Marlon was ahead of his time. He knew he was a great actor, he did it, made money, was recognized for his talents. He could get or buy anything he wanted. He was not going to ignore the plight of others, nor try to spend his life trying to stay young and relevant. He lived. Those not so great, try to extend what once was.
Newmansprings
I agree, but i don't think he was ahead of his time.. Reading the meditations by Marcus Auerelius, you see that people have been having these realisations for thousands of years.
That's what high value men do lol. Alot of women r just commenting here it seems. I guess they would want to be with him if they could lol
so if talking about equal rights for blacks and american indians during the early 60s, and going against all the establishment traditions during the 50s, and talking about the news as a business in 65, wasnt being ahead of his time, than i cant help you....
funny how people call Brando crazy because he isnt following a script or acting like an android. this is what is called being free and being comfortable in your own skin. most of the world should try that sometime
You obviously know nothing about this man.
There is a lot to love about this interview. One thing I loved aside from Brando and his way of thinking is how beautiful the environment is. How it went from sun up to sun down while the interview took place. From under the sun to under the moon.
Brando had a really unique way of viewing the world and is extremely interesting to listen to.
He should've received an Oscar for this interview...Maestro Brando!
Everyone back then was too focused on trying to be an actor.Few alternatives listened to his personal opinions about the state of the world.He made a speech with Michael Jackson and everyone was distracted and not listening to him about social/political/cultural issues.
Everything that is wrong with the world today encapsulated in one interview. Forget actor; Brando was one of the greatest human beings of all time. AjC
He was brilliant and way ahead of his time...he knew human nature so well and Connie missed a true opportunity to interview a great thinker far ahead of his time and true humanitarian...She robbed us of glimpse of a deep philosophical brilliance of not only a great actor and a wise man...but one of the most intelligent person of his time..his words hold true today more than they did when he said them...The Plato of the acting world.. he gave us true genius and she kept missing the mark in this interview she had know clue what he was talking about...his mind was truly brilliant and I wish we could have heard more interviews from this great actor by someone that could actually appreciate his brilliance...She was clueless who cares about his weight.. her brain is as light as a feather....he talked circles around her I am embarrassed for her...
I love his candor and the fact that he tells it like it is. He has a unique sense of humor and perspective of this world. What a great actor... he was great in the movie The Score with Robert Deniro near the end of his career.
I need to watch the score
She was intimidated by him, she didn't know how to speak to him. Because he was so down to earth and genuine... not a cocky actor that she can interrogate with stupid questions...I love this guy
Vickie I strongly agree with you

Marlon Brando is a true legend and will remembered in history. I cant stop admiring him. He is a gem 🤗
Brando was BRILLIANT. Still CAPTIVATING. One of the GREATS.
Excellent!!! Captured the madness of Marlon, and the bravado of Brando!! A larger than life legend!!
Back in the day Brando seemed crazy, but man, he was ahead of his time. I watched that whole interview and thought he was friggin brilliant. His position on the genocide of the native people may have seemed radical to some back then, but not today. I love the last line he gives. It makes me laugh and cry all at the same time.
Totally agree.

Let's hear what good ol' Marlon or _you've_ got to say about the unspeakable savagery of the so-called indigenous peoples of the 'New World' exhibited even among their more advanced tribes to the south.
Exactly. Not much, unless it's heavily sugar-coated, to put it mildly.
Enough already with the pathetically silly, disingenuous, relentless vilification of "the white man" - for if not for the Caucasian male(with an assist from his Asian brethren and the support of his female) we'd still be living in the stone-age.

@Fred and lobster whisperer,
You both are right
It's not this or that.
It's both.
He's a person just like anyone else, having to earn money. Get some bread on the table.
So in the beginning, he wasn't as pickey .
But later on he wanted to his own ideas into practice. But walked into the Hollywood wall. And that frustrated him very much. You see him saying 'you're making me very angry now to Connie.

True, you said what I intentionally left out thinking ppl would see it as obvious. But some ppl need everything spelled out.

I don't blame him.
Most people are into jobs in which their heart is not really into.
Some have the opportunity to do what they love and make money with it.
Whether it's sports or acting or something else.
Marlon didn't do so bad. Although I have seen him talk bad about the profession of acting. Not being proud of it. Something like that.
I do think he 'probably' was a person with inner conflicts as well.
You have to do this, but you're expected to do that. You need money. So what do you do.
He was accused of being a selfish person.

Hollywood is a union also. Haha.
Emptiness rules them all.
Many movies come from Hollywood.

But the storielines and dialogues can be way better than what is seen too often.

For me, I can identify closely with his plight bc I suffered a similar trip in my career & made the same radical decisions.
Yes he was a radical idealist seeking a better world, a great soul that doesn't belong.
A dreamer in a dreamless mostly instinctive human culture.
Its the result of being rapped up in ones self & not realizing the make up of the majority of ppl around us.
He was obviously tortured by his own, high moral character & never could see that he's in a robotic herd of driven consumers.
The herd follow the guys in the front, not bc they're leaders who know where they're going but merely bc they're in the front.
That makes ppl followers by nature & debating leadership qualities with them over-heats their their mind & nets you insults like "your crazy..etc".
A viable solution may be, to sneak to the front by prostituting one's self to hoard massive money by any means.
Several mega recording artists have tried that route, they corrupted themselves only to bump against big brother/king.
And kings are smart, they got ppl where they want them & can see you coming & they murder competition.
Most efforts will never work bc the core of the majority of humanity is not on-board.
So why kill yourself over a sea of creatures devoid of honor & no aspiration.
The sheep are happy in the barn, why you wanna build rockets...lulz

He could have went into that interview and faked answers, faked laughs and faked smiles, but he was a genuine man. He was always ahead of his time. A true acting genius.

Arguably the greatest actor who was down to earth, unpretentious , unimpressed by his own fame and extremely intelligent !!!!!!!!
There are no great actors, just people trying to be someone other than themselves.
That’s so exaggerated. He was a good actor amongst many other great actors. But to say he was the greatest is so so exaggerated, and im pretty sure Brando himself would rather agree with me than with someone saying he was the greatest actor.

My goodness.... I am intrigued, humbled, and grateful to watch and deeply listen to this man. I am 35 years old but as a child remember my dad watching The God Father at least once a week. Never knew what he found so fascinating about the movie but as I sit here watching this now I NOW UNDERSTAND.

I have a crush on his soul❤️, and when he was younger DEFINITELY HAD A CRUSH ON HIS FACE❤️
The greatest of all time. Never again anyone like him.
Marlon Brando wasn't crazy. It might have driven him mad the way some interviewers keep ignoring what he says and asking the same question. But he was a genius, and very passionate about life and respecting other human beings.
This my point the interviews pushing their own Agendas jst watch his earlier interview you'll C what I mean
Yes. For example, Brando was talking about free will which Brando said was, "an interesting conversation" (at the 29:52 mark) and the moment he started on this very interesting topic Connie Chung feigned boredom and pretended to fall asleep. I would have loved to hear what Brando had to say but Connie Chung unfunnily and rudely cut him off. Why did she do that? That I don't understand.
They wanted drama, he gave them knowledge.

Marlon Brando was a great man....I agree completely with YodaLorian's comment.....Just try and find a selfless, not politically correct actor or actress today that compares with these absolutely great actors of times past, like Marlon Brando.
He knew what Hollywood was all about. Rejecting the Oscar was his only real power to shine a spotlight on the real social and economic issues that Hollywood WAS NOT addressing, because they weren't blockbuster movie earners in the minds of studio execs. Rather than engage in a pointless exercise of forgettable Oscar-night hobnobbing and self-adulation, he actually achieved much much more for the ordinary everyday Native Americans. Marlon Brando was a great man.
@@sunkkist Indeed. An intelligent, sensitive man. A good man...that's why so many people considered him a weirdo. He had dignity and integrity, so yeah, he was uncommon.
I disagree with you saying Marlon Brando is not politically correct....he was actually very politically correct. It's just that he was PC before we used the term PC...
James DiPinto Brando was so not pc. it's impossible to be an effective actor or an artist and be 100% politically correct.
@@jamesdipinto1972 why pigeonhole him? Everybody needs to be right or left these days. Why can't he be himself?
What a beautiful man! What a great loss his passing away. He was so unique, very interesting.
He’s absolutely right. Almost anyone is or can be an Actor. While we are living each day; we are all living together as Actors.
Says who?
What a brilliant man! Truly a rarity among actors.
Brando was 65 here and would live another 15 years. Happy Birthday Marlon, R.I.P.
No, he died in the 90's
Cosmic Pulse no, he died in 2004
World needed a guy like him. God bless you Sir.just noticed he is wearing a watch on both his hands.
Brandon is definitely educating this lady with all honesty.
I get Marlon because he is looking at the reality and not the fantasy of the entertainment business,
Marlon Brando is still laughing his ass off at all of the people that believed they knew & understood him ! Keep laughing Marlon they will finally get it one day ! Never mind, they never will !
@@Jj-gi2uv *Brando
@@Jj-gi2uv - you have no idea about what you are talking about
“David Letterman doesn’t do that .”
“No , but I do at the mention of his name.”
LMFAOO fucking legend .
He couldn't contain himself when all she came up with was DL. I laughed hysterically at his reaction...frozen in time, like, what!? he had to do something or otherwise he would have been on the floor in hysterics. Ironically, he was talking about finding laughter in one's life.
im sure he saw the chis Elliot skit😂
Yeah.. there is something deeply profound about that testament.. 😄
I love that Brando looked at the camera a lot in this interview. You don't get many interviewees doing that.
So did George from the Beatles on Dick Cavett show.
Broke that “fourth wall” and let us know it was all a put on. What a great actor he was.
"You are really making me angry now!"Connie didn't know how to take him at times!
I love this man! One of a kind no doubt!
She was out of her element!
Something so beautiful about this man, he just sparkles with life and energy,and that smile, cant believe how attractive he still was!!❤❤❤
Want to thank Marlon Brando for the entertainment he has given me. Wish he made more movies. Thank you for being a voice for native people of the lands.
Brando just too intelligent and smart for this interviewer...the questions were just pathetic. Rest in peace Marlon. You certainly always had the last laugh.
You're about as dumb as they come. Tell us, would you? What's it like being a complete and utter moron?
It is all about Laughter..
God has told a proper Joke
Intelligent yes, and philosopher, but sarcastic and controversial also.
I adore the constant breeze that flows through Brando's and Chung's hair.
Connie is so hot 🥵
I could listen to him talk forever. I love him.
You could easily brush off his comments as madness, but he speaks a lot of truth here.
His answer is real. Madness is the rest of the world.
Huh?madness?He was crystal clear .You must be like another Connie,and just don't get him intellectually and so must discredit his brilliance and call it "madness".I bet you know nothing about brilliance , or madness for that matter.
I didn't hear a single sentence that even treaded on madness
I loved that man, and I.also loved Connie Chung. And yes, he could have played the lead romantic role at that age, hell yes ! He was such a deep, charismatic man.
Brando was an incredibly gifted individual and his charisma truly dominated the screen...he also had a great understanding for human nature and in my personal opinion he knew how to use his charisma to manipulate the perception of the audience off screen, and viewed as an enigmatic personality...
He was truly remarkable and his acting on screen was a tiny aspect of the genius he really was...
This is the only interview I've seen where an actor talked openly about salary.
Acting was a job to Marlon. He found the pomposity and grandeur of acting silly. He would rather talk about anything else.
Worth a $100M at his death......not bad for a guy that was wacked!!!
@@wildbill8362 Kinda like you, right? NOT...you're just a lame who calls himself "Wild Bill"...sounds like you're wacked, loser.😂
@@mikevaldez7684 Good try.....lol
@@wildbill8362 Thank you Queen !😊
Aw, man! That was so short! I could have watched for two hours. What an interesting character. If according to him, we're all acting, then he has created one of the most interesting characters ever and he is extremely entertaining.
Commanding, intelligent, quick witted, brutally honest, compassionate, introspective, no nonsense...Marlon was marvellous.
I agree, however, he treated his relationships with women(don't know about men) rather badly. Lots and lots of infidelity and dare I say, cruel? Or, maybe, simply insensitive and without empathy. He strikes me as someone who really struggled with loving and being loved. But, he was not perfect....he had lots of childhood trauma. RIP Marlon!
@@funshine817 He has great capacity to feel and have empathy, but his own demons requires constant self upkeep. In other words, lots of patience for others, but deeply wounded to be consistent enough and needed his own space and contemplation for long periods of time therefore alienating others.
@@funshine817well we all do ..we all do
You really can see in his acting what he meant when he said you can't act unless you are what you are, who you are. Brilliant! His acting is just like his interviews....real!
Now here is Marlon Brando telling it like it is plain and simple thank you thank you thank you and Marlon please come back!
“I come from an Irish background. I think one of the defenses you find for people who are saddened, such as the Irish... life is too grim generally for most people, and when you’re down to your last nickel, and your last hope, I think all that you have left is laughter.”
30:00 he's about to say something very profound about the fact that you can't control your life, and the twin experiment, but she cuts him off like an idiot.
She is so ignorant !
word i do not like this interviewer at all
If I could be forgiven for one kill.
He had nothing to say, so she was saving his ass, that's the skill of the interviewer and why he's laughing about it.
In fact he's consistently laughing in this interview, meaning he's completely comfortable with it
Connie feels that she has to prove she can stand toe to toe in the ring with him. She blew it.
He’s like the wise old man you wanted to confide your problem with (for logic and compassion reasons) and listened to all day long
