"He is the marker. There's 'before Brando' and 'after Brando'." - Martin Scorsese A whole lot of printer ink has been spilled within the lives of history's most influential statistics, but how a lot of the forest is lost for the trees and shrubs? In Charles River Editors' American Legends series, listeners can get caught up on the lives of America's most important men and women in enough time it takes to finish a commute. And they can accomplish that while learning interesting facts long ignored or never known. Marlon Brando. Few titles in the performing job evoke such a solid, almost visceral effect. Over the course of his long, prolific job, he was considered possibly the greatest professional of the 20th hundred years, as well as one of the most complicated and misinterpreted. Uniquely in a position to be both psychologically charged and officially constrained in the same performance, he single-handedly changed the direction of not only the American style of performing, influencing successors such as Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, and even Johnny Depp, however the acting job on a global range. His iconic interpretations of characters such as Stanley Kowalski (A Streetcar Known as Desire), Terry Malloy (Within the Waterfront) and Vito Corleone (The Godfather) have been permanently burned in to the collective storage area of film and theatre aficionados, scholars, and critics because of their immense passion, rage, love, defiance, vulnerability, cruelty, and tenderness - quite simply, the full spectral range of the real human condition.
