Did u watch this scene on the show "The Offer" yet?

Me too!!!

He got paid the equivalent of 1 million Dollars in today's money

@@coolmacatrain9434 For an actor of his caliber and a production as big as The Godfather was, what he got was "peanuts", I guess.

@@telephantasm4070 no it wasn't peanuts

he also said he didnt do it for the money. he did it to spite someone.

Not so in APCOLYPSE NOW. Brando was a jerk.

@@ricogomez4020 Really? Where and when did you met him?

@@tomyobee8049 There is this documentary done by Mrs. Coppola called HEARTS OF DARKNESS. Also Rita Moreno was doing promotion for WEST SIDE STORY and was on THE VIEW and said some things about Brando. Sounds like you need to be schooled about Brando.

@@ricogomez4020 Well of course we didn't know him personally, but judging from all the many bits and pieces of information, Marlon Brando definitely was not a nice person and easy to work with. About FF Coppola: yes he was on a roll during the 1970s and that says a lot, since we had a whole bunch of highly talented and upcoming film directors back then.

and the best movie ever!!!

100%

agree... but he was out to lunch when he had the squaw accept Oscar... made no sense

@@nbigroup-2690 lol oof, identified the idiott angry at rhe integrity that we’re talking bout 😂😂😂

Exactly 💯

He was an absolute lunatic who epitomized that “Hollywood mentality”. He just happened to be an incredible actor as well.

🙏💜💫🪶

Meets $120,000 Which to me is a fair price for Brando.

The offer is so damn good, just finished it the other day

Right on Bubee!

Do you guys think there will be a season 2?

@@rtc5884 its already done. what needed to be shown was already shown. theres not much tot he story anymore. thats how the godfather was made. unless you're talking about if they are gonna show how they made part 2

That Mexican was weak. Like any white trying to play Mexican.

The greatest actor of all time. Period.

Marlon Brando is a hell of a actor he's one of the most best actor I've ever had the pleasure watches on scream in my life I do love me some Marlon Brando I remember being a young girl when Paul Newman Marlon Brando came on the screen I stopped doing everything literally

He also played a psycho Irishman in Missouri Breaks...in the 70s...directed by Jack Nicholson, who played opposite Marlon.

@@joemarshall4226 Is that what you call that performance? I call it a imitation of Richard Harris.

Wrong,..

@@johnaustin209 looking for an argument? Not necessary here.

@@gregdark5203 Really Sherlock. Just ppinted out your bs, that's all.

@@johnaustin209 I wasn't looking for an argument. You have nothing better to do.?? Next time I'll add "arguably." Now leave me alone I have no beef with you

Daniel Day-Lewis would give him a good run for his money, but I'd agree. When it comes to greatness of this magnitude it comes down to personnel preference. You can't go wrong with either one.

Yes it did

Marlon Brando wasn't quite as difficult what was difficult for them to believe yes he really didn't want to be bothered with the belly of hollyweird depth of his craft and that's it he did what he wanted to do you didn't tell him what to do he let you know if he was doing it

That is over 800k today.

That’s gotta be worth one million today

@@mrnick5515 still nothing compare to what masterpiece character he created

That's true that's because they called herself blackballing him producers and directors that was willing to work with him no matter what

Because and so many words he told the Oscar kiss ass an that native Indian up there to get his Oscar like most shouldn't be bother with Oscar to hell with the Oscars go fly a kite

When you consider the fact that actors today get paid in the tens of millions, yes. 1 million for an actor of the caliber of Brando is peanuts. It's hardly anything for a character and performance that became legendary, made a bunch of money, and changed cinema. When you have the likes of the Rock and Gal Gadot with 20-30 million paychecks for their mediocre performances and you put them next to Brando, they're laughable, and yet get paid 20-30 times more? That's what's out of touch here.

Brando to my recollection by 1972 had not had a "hit" movie in quite some time. For a lot of Hollywood suits at this time, his personality and beliefs made him a strong liability.

It's the other way around.

It was on youtube some years ago but for some reason it has been removed.

@@britturk123 Wait a minute! Not the tape that came with THE GODFATHER video extras or that we see here. Did you see it?

@@ricogomez4020 It is a two minute clip with volume yes it is from the same clip you see here where Brando is at his home messing around for Copola

@@britturk123 Ah, Coppola makes it sound better than it is then. No big deal. I wanted to see Brando eating the cheese & sausage Coppola says.

@@ricogomez4020 I think he does do that too. I mean it is no great acting class just Brando goofing around, but seeing it was fun. It is definitely from the same clip as shown here but obviously longer and with the volume .

"...but it was magical." This video is a choppily edited version of a longer 92nd St. Y interview with Coppola; here's a link to the full version (Brando discussion starts at 19:02): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q65-a9OYvJqYgWg.html

Actually if you read the book first no one could have that's one of the things a lot of people don't understand that's what made the movie the actor and the performance was profound but the characters were so in detail if you had to put the book down and imagine the characters that's the characters you would have came up with only person that didn't get his death with was Lucas Brasi in the movie they give you a little bit of it in a book

@@yvetteknight93 I’ve read the book multiple times over the years Recently Me and my wife just did a road trip NY to Nashville We listened to the book on audio 18 hrs

Probably not a lot either, it was a cast of largely unknown actors. The studio wanted big stars but Coppola insisted on real actors who could inhabit their parts. His favorite way to describe it was that he wanted viewers to be able to smell the spaghetti

@@jennifersman7990 $904,008.25 almost a million today . Still a bargain

Dreyfuss was paid 100k for Hooper in Jaws

@@nbigroup-2690 I remember when Sandy Koufax and Don Drysdale held out to get $100,000 from the Dodgers.

That was what the studios wanted - they wanted Brando to guarantee that he would be on set and finish the film- they were worried about Brando not showing up etc. That was what Coppola calls the "security" money.when he says- they wanted him to put up a bond.

He had 4 flops in a row and had a reputation for being difficult.

120k was low in 1971? What would the equivalent of that be today?

I believe no one was paid a lot of money. And many actors were just starting out - maybe James Caan was the only big star to be cast- apart from Brando. They had a tight budget- but Brando had not been in a hit for a while so the studios wouldn't risk the money.

Did not know he was African-American

What, for calling Brando “a beautiful man”? 😂

lol. 🤣

Who the fuck are you? LOL

Do you smell burning toast?
