Marlon Brando

The Godfather DVD Collection (The Godfather/ The Godfather - Part II/ The Godfather - Part III)

Marlon Brando, Al Pacino

Paramount, 2001

Advanced course in business
In July, I watched the Godfather trilogy in one sitting, which is the way I would suggest to anyone that wants to see this great film, as a very long 8 hour movie. What did I like so much about it? For me and I may just be weird in this, the story is about the modern ...

Last Tango in Paris

Marlon Brando, Maria Schneider

MGM (Video & DVD), 1998

I don't know what it is...
but I love this movie. It's just the right level of sinful arousal and plot that really works. I also find myself really caring about the characters. Usually I'm not a fan of movies that have sex in them at all... it's almost always unnecessary to the plot. But this ...

Julius Caesar

Marlon Brando, James Mason

Warner Home Video, 2006

Rarely has Shakespeare Been Adapted This Well for the Screen
A fine cast and a faithful reading of the play contribute to one of the most satisfying transfers of Shakespeare to the big screen ever filmed. Marlon Brando is fine as Marc Antony but for me James Mason and John Gielgud are absolutely brilliant as Brutus and Cassius ...

The Godfather - The Coppola Restoration Giftset DVD

Marlon Brando, Al Pacino

Paramount, 2008

Classic Reborn
This Was the rebirth of the Godfather for me and it was worth every penny.

Guys and Dolls

Marlon Brando, Jean Simmons

MGM (Video & DVD), 2000

Guys and Dolls
This is a true classic. Greta actors, wonderful script, some of the best Broadway music in one show. Another must see for the "musical" enthusiast.

The Godfather (Widescreen Edition)

Marlon Brando, Al Pacino

Paramount, 2004

Perfect
This movie is strong, good script, great casting, excellent acting, and over the top directing. It is hard to fine a movie done this well, it is 29 years old and has aged well. Even if the viewer does not like mafia type of movies, he or she will watch the entire film, ...

Don Juan DeMarco

Marlon Brando, Johnny Depp

New Line, 1998

A delightful bijoux of a movie
The casting was spot on. Mercurial Johnny Depp can be anyone, I believe he IS Don Juan De Marco. Even at 300# plus, Brando still has it, Dunaway is and will always be a beautiful woman, and the combination obviously worked. The visit of Don Juans mother from ...

Superman Returns [Blu-ray]

Brandon Routh, Kate Bosworth

Warner Brothers, 2006

The Man Of Steel Is Back...With A Vengeance.
After 20 years, The Man Of Steel is back...with a new face. From the director & writer of "The Usual Suspects" (an engrossing suspense thriller with a wicked twist of an ending) comes the "Sequel" to "Superman II." Disregarding the abysmal "Superman III" & "Superman ...

On the Waterfront (Special Edition)

Martin Balsam, Don Blackman

Sony Pictures, 2001

A film of major social importance; not to mention utterly fascinating to watch...
A staple for any fan of Marlon Brando, `On the Waterfront' is much more than a showcase for the actor's immense talent. No, `On the Waterfront' is a brilliant study of oppression, power and the struggle for control, not of others but of ones self. Sure, Brando ...

A Streetcar Named Desire (Two-Disc Special Edition)

Vivien Leigh, Marlon Brando

Warner Home Video, 2006

Funny, heartbreaking and moving -- "Streetcar" is a classic.
After seeing a performance of Tennessee Williams' gripping play "A Streetcar Named Desire" at a local event, I immediately bought the award-winning film. I was unsure how a brutally powerful story about the demise of one woman's reputation could be translated into a ...

Superman - The Movie [HD DVD]

Christopher Reeve, Gene Hackman

Warner Home Video, 2006

Original and Still the Best
Even if you compare this movie to today's superhero movies such as Iron Man or The Dark Knight, you would enjoy this movie more. There is a more human element to this and this is in part due to great writers and phenomenal actors. The problem with most superhero ...

Superman - The Movie

Vass Anderson, Harry Andrews

Original and Still the Best

The Wild One

Marlon Brando, Mary Murphy

Sony Pictures, 1998

The Best
"The Wild One" and not "Easy Rider" is the classic of bad boy motorcycle flicks (Sonny Barger of the Hells Angels describes Easy Rider as a movie about two dope dealers, not about bikers). This is a fun flick with the best part, IMHO, the viewer being able to retro ...
