Marlon Brando 1924-2004

I have never seen his early movies, but the one movie I saw with him in it was....

Apocalypse Now.
He plays a crazed Green Beret colonel, and Martin Sheen is sent to kill him. By the end of the movie, I wondered if he was all that crazy. The classic phrase which summed up the insanity of the war that Brando said in the movie was

You teach young men to drop fire on people, but you won't allow them to write the word "Fuck" on their airplanes because it's obscene."

Makes one wonder.
