      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.

      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.*

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.

    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

      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.

      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.

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.

      Ok I am new at this and what I said , well it is gone I guess. So I will repeat it. Brando was one of the the best actors ever. Money can not buy that. He made many good films. Picked wisely I think. My favorite was One Eyed Jack, who knew was about a bad guy who had some had some good in him. A Western of sorts, with a love story as well added in, The soundtrack was beautiful and so was the film and so was the outdoors creating a mood to that film that you can’t forget. The sadness and terror of that film was unexpected as well that give it the background for what he does. A reason for revenge. I missed The Godfather, got the second one and not impressed. Gave it away. The soundtrack was my first album at fourteen, that I ever bought and still have, unusual as most teenagers were buying Elvis records and rock and roll. Guess that says something real about the impact Brando had on me.
