Marlon Brando citáty

Marlon Brando, Jr. byl americký filmový herec a režisér, který je považován za jednu z nejvýraznějších hereckých osobností 20. století. Proslul především rolemi ve filmech režiséra Elia Kazana z padesátých let Tramvaj do stanice Touha a V přístavu. Je taktéž dvojnásobným držitelem cen americké filmové akademie za hlavní role ve snímcích Kmotr a V přístavu. Jeho herecký styl inspiroval celou hereckou generaci 50. a 60. let 20. století, včetně Jamese Deana, Paula Newmana, Roberta De Niro, Al Pacina, Jacka Nicholsona, a dalších, přičemž je mu připisován, jak významný vliv na samotné filmové herectví, tak i fakt, že se stal tím nejlepším příkladem tzv. Stanislavského herecké metody, která zdůrazňuje propojení psychických procesů a fyzického jednání, které herci umožňuje propracovat se k ovládnutí a opětovnému navození emocionálních pocitů své postavy, i k racionální kontrole celistvého hereckého výkonu.

Marlon Brando: Citáty anglicky

“When I lie on the beach there naked, which I do sometimes, and I feel the wind coming over me and I see the stars up above and I am looking into this very deep, indescribable night, it is something that escapes my vocabulary to describe.”

New York Times (July 2, 2004)
Kontext: When I lie on the beach there naked, which I do sometimes, and I feel the wind coming over me and I see the stars up above and I am looking into this very deep, indescribable night, it is something that escapes my vocabulary to describe. Then I think: 'God, I have no importance. Whatever I do or don't do, or what anybody does, is not more important than the grains of sand that I am lying on, or the coconut that I am using for my pillow.' So I really don't think in the long sense.

“Privacy is not something that I’m merely entitled to, it’s an absolute prerequisite.”

Said in 1960, quoted in Marlon Brando, Ch. 11 (1974, rev. 1989), by David Shipman.

“Acting is the expression of a neurotic impulse. It's a bum's life.”

Marlon Brando: The Only Contender, Gary Carey (1985), Ch.13

“I have decided to tell the story of my life as best I can, so that my children can separate the truth from the myths that others have created about me, as myths are created about everyone swept up in the turbulent and distorting maelstrom of celebrity in our culture.”

Songs My Mother Taught Me (1994)
Kontext: I have always considered my life a private affair and the business of no one beyond my family and those I love. Except for moral and political issues that aroused in me a desire to speak out, I have done my utmost throughout my life, for the sake of my children and myself, to remain silent … But now, in my seventieth year, I have decided to tell the story of my life as best I can, so that my children can separate the truth from the myths that others have created about me, as myths are created about everyone swept up in the turbulent and distorting maelstrom of celebrity in our culture.

“On the day Kazan showed me the completed picture I was so depressed by my performance that I got up and left the screening room.”

Speaking of his performance in On the Waterfront (1954). Songs My Mother Taught Me (1994)
"If there is a better performance by a man in the history of film in America, I don't know what it is."- Eli Kazan on Brando's performance in On the Waterfront, published in Marlon Brando, Portraits and Film Stills 1946-1995 (1996)

“The principal benefit acting has afforded me is the money to pay for my psychoanalysis.”

Marlon Brando: The Only Contender, Gary Carey (1985), Ch.13

“You are very attractive, but the coat you're wearing makes me think you are either a very rich woman or a very rich man's mistress.”

Stated to Ashraf Pahlavi of Iran, as quoted in Faces in a Mirror (1980) by Ashraf Pahlavi, p. 129

“Bertolucci is extraordinary in his ability to perceive, he's a poet…he is very easy to work for.”

Rolling Stone Issue No. 213 (May 20, 1976) on Bernardo Bertolucci.
