    Just posted a similar thread.

    Heh, he was a hottie...
    I never saw the Godfather [I know. TRAVESTY.] But I did see "On the Waterfront" in a film class in HS! Something about Levi's in the 50's that are so sexy! <g> Then again, I've always had a soft spot for boxers. ;)

    Haha. BTW, how's the boxing career going? And more improtantly, how far do you live from the Everlast factory? I can't get enough of that stuff... :D

    Yeah, Brando was one of a kind. But if EVER there was a guy on "borrowed time", it was him. I mean, how many 400lb. 80-year-olds do you see hanging around?

    BTW, if you believe in that "celebrities dying in threes" type of thing, he's the third... :eek:

    I'm back in training, actually, I started back this week! My trainer moved to a different gym so I'm not at Gleason's anymore.

    Hmm, Everlast... I think that it is in the Bronx, but read something a few months or so ago on Maxboxing.com that they are sadly moving their operations out of NY. It's not cost effective to manufacture here. Oh well, I like smaller G&S anyway! [BTW, am adding a shot I took of Wayne to my site this weekend. It should be up by Sunday.]

    Is always the first Brando film to pop into mind. The Godfather was a shock when I saw it. Amazing how a person changes in 20 or so years.

    I'd say he left his mark. Long list of films

    Just an interesting piece of trivia... I found out while I was in Tahiti last week that he actually owns an entire ISLAND down there... it's called Tetiaroa.

    "On the Waterfront" has always been my favorite Brando movie. Followed closely of course by "The Godfather" and "Apocalypse Now."
