Marlon Brando (1924-2004) was an American actor, most famous for his roles in "The Wild One", "A Streetcar Named Desire", "On the Waterfront", "The Godfather", "Last Tango in Paris" and "Apocalypse Now". He was known for his naturalistic type of acting which became very influential and his characteristic nasal voice.
Portrayal on the show[]
Brando was often featured in small cameos. One sketch featured him in a parody of his famous "I could have been a contender"-scene from "On the Waterfront", where Rod Steiger complains that Brando always managed to be so much better and more famous actor than him. Brando then explains to him: "Rod...rod... rod...rod...rod....rod... rod... you...you.... you.... you....never.... you never.... you never....you never....you never.... you never knew.... you never knew.... you never knew....you never knew.... you never knew to make one line.... last..... ten minutes."
