'''Marlon Brando, Jr.''' (b. April 3, 1924, in Omaha, Nebraska; d. July 1, 2004, in Los Angeles) was an American actor who was featured in some of the most well-known [[Hollywood]] films of the second half of the twentieth century. Brando's idiosyncratic use of [[Konstantin Stanislavski]]'s "emotional memory" technique of acting had a profound influence on his generation of actors as well as subsequent ones. [[Elia Kazan]] said Brando challenged "the whole system of politeness and good nature and good ethics and everything else."<ref>[http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2005/may/14/film Mad about the boy ] - [[Germaine Greer]] in ''The Guardian'' 14 May 2005</ref>
