Acting Masterclass: Marlon Brando

[cashallen]

this was pretty good

[tweekedoutrabbit]

what  the hell aha

[sHAd0W11591]

LMAO

[Vindicarium]

clean it up¡¡¡¡

[PeterFLOYDIAN]

Regardless the fact that this would be 'about humor'...

It's so sad that someone is reminded by his last images. (especially some reactions)

Why don't some of you folks learn about Marlon Brando's philosophy on 'Ethnic groups' like Indians, and forget about the fact that he was 'fat' for a second

He seemed to have been a very 'difficult' person, but nevertheless his heart was at the right place.

[dirkschuitsma]

@PeterFLOYDIAN

I do know about these philosophies of his and yes, he surely was amazing, daring to spread them. But this impersonation is really funny and spot on. Peter does impersonations of more actors in an "insulting" way. Its like the way Ricky Gervais did the Oscars. People in power should always be ridiculed and so do actors. So they wont take themselves too seriously. I hope they can take it.

[mcsuibhne005]

It's funny cause it's true ..type in "richard harris interview brando" and listen!

[MrToaster1196]

this is messed up

[JhonnyArtandMedia]

Aside from the Jabba the Hutt reference, the guy sounds like DeNiro, Joe Pesci, Brando.. he's like a Mob Salad.

[morrossey]

will's mum!!

[katawatenshu]

This is a pretty well made parody, but I have mad respect for Brando and his work towards people's rights so I don't really like this.

[dirkschuitsma]

@katawatenshu

So you didnt laugh.

[thybirdistheword]

marlon spits on yah

[DutchMeNow]

What a cruel, childish jibe at an amazing man whose talent infinitely exceeds that of everyone involved in the making of this video.

[febbra2]

Marlon the Hutt

[BlackSoulAcid]

stellllllllllllllllllllllllla

[todorlfc]

he talks more like robert de niro..

[111RichardC111]

This is one of the funniest things i've ever seen.

[Acoontey]

Nothing like Marlo's actual personality but kinda funny :P

[dirkschuitsma]

@Acoontey

Have you never seen interviews with him?

[Acoontey]

@dirkschuitsma Have you?

[dirkschuitsma]

@Acoontey

No, why?

[mintymac88]

Looks just like Oscar Bluth when he puts the glasses on.

[TaskMaster619]

Is that Butterfield? ;)

[astroboirap]

lol this makes me queasy

[dirkschuitsma]

Brilliant!!!

[LittleMissBuzzkill]

MR. McMACINTOSH XD

[arnoldprodigy]

fuck off

[whispers6667]

i lol'd

[Crumblybiscuit]

LOOOL!- The bit about the script had me cracking up!

[miguedro]

morons...Brando was amazing.

[simmy3000]

@miguedro so what, doesn't mean he's immune to ridicule

[JamesGod08]

This is NOT just about the fact he is fat, you morons.

[bawoman]

Ugh,this sucks.And before you start accusing me of being a humorless Brando fan,I HAVE seen other imitations that have made me crack up(John Belushi and John Travolta in SNL,among others).But this just blows,no thought or inteligence behind it.The "Brando got fat and eats a whole lot" shtick has gotten old,kiddies.

[JamesGod08]

@bawoman It's not just the fact he's fat you moron, it's what he's saying and doing which is VERY accurate to Brandos actual character. Very intelligent and brilliant

[MyBottletree]

I rather look a lifetime like Marlon Brando even during the fat period, than only 5 minutes like this ugly guy...

Strange world, ugly tall men making jokes about handsome small men, ugly thin people making jokes about handsome fat people...

You're ugly deal with it

[Bolinas1971]

mmmmm, hugley unenjoyable

x

[lucyxlynx]

He's actually really good at the accent (:

[PaulTCain]

I'm watching Apocalypse Now:Redux. perfect timing

[gamisias]

Very stupid and very wrong ...Just waste of time ...

[Jcolinsol]

ITS FUNNY BECAUSE MARLON BRANDO GOT FAT

[RudiThePrudi]

The cue cards... and when that guy started dancing... XD

[mashtiist]

i dont understand why this video which is 10 times better than some others and have been worked on professionally would get red bar at all. What a crap at the end!

[deouwehoer]

wow haha omg just imagine somebody was indeed as fat as that.

[noprize1234]

Im one of Brandos biggest fans and I would have found this funny if the impersonation was better. If the caption wouldnt have said Brando, I wouldnt have know.

[Patbuchanan]

Classic Brando, pure genius.

[MrRickSpence]

very insulting

[TheMrTJWhite]

WILLS MUM!

[nightwishfan06]

whaaaaa?

[Mindmodic]

I think some people (probably americans) should steer clear of British humour and not take everything so seriously.

Stick to 'it's funny because its true' jokes.

Accept something is funny within the confines of the scene itself, rather than reading into it and taking it as an insult.

[spartaklas]

fuck

[GanTreFTW]

stupid .

[rockhammer85]

At last - a much needed piss-take of a horrendously overrated actor. Thanks for the laugh.

[theroilsoil]

Marlon Brando was a fantastic actor, and I'm sure he would have found

this somewhat amusing - great actors don't mind being made fun of,

that's why they're actors. :)

[spinopino]

idiots, just plane IDIOTS!!!!

[surreptitious119]

The few seconds that I spent watching this video, before pausing it to write this comment, were a complete and utter waste of my time. The several hours that I've spent, over the course of several years, watching Brando's brilliant performances were enriching and unforgettable. Turn off YouTube and turn on some On the Waterfront. It's depressing that this kind of trash is even accessible or associated with the name Marlon Brando. This video doesn't possess an iota of comedic merit.

[rigs345]

@surreptitious119 bloody hell get a life

[surreptitious119]

@rigs345 I'm not sure what makes you think I don't have one. I don't see how you could criticize me for anything that won't end up making you look like a hypocrite.

[lozghost7]

A cheap shot and It's not even funny. It's rubbish.

If you're going to be disrespectful you should at least come up with something witty. By the way, what were these actors thinking of?

certainly Mr Serafinowicz is not as funny as he'd like to think he is. I guess at some point he coulda been a contender? He coulda been somebody but let's face it, he's a bum......

[MrSmanie]

all of you guys are a bunch of cunts sitting there ,dont you guys have fuckall ales to do than make fun of such a great actor enjoy urselves losers cos its the only fuckin acting job yall gonne get fuckin deadbeats

[niptuck117]

LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT MEHHH!

[PrivateAckbar]

@iteabaggedyourmother it's a joke.

[TheType90]

a head pie hahahahhahaha 5:23

[blksoljaa]

The work of jews no doubt.

[stella3265]

@blksoljaa It is funny.

[elitestar]

lol jabba the hut

[polito2k]

Irrespetuosos, creo que no deberia tomarse en chiste

[sturatcliffe]

@polito2k --- porque no?

[lsprings8]

Poor attempt at humor. For such an iconic figure in American history, Brando deserves better. You should be ashamed.

[stella3265]

@lsprings8 Brando never took himself to seriously or his profession (as one who "Behaves" not "Acts" in front of the camera) as an Actor. He never thought that he was an artist.

[lsprings8]

@stella3265 Yes I am aware of that, but I don't feel he would appreciate this type of thing. It is making a mockery out of his weight gain. I attended an event with his son, Mikko in which he was honored and he brought so much to us; we should show him respect in return, especially when he is not here to defend himself.

[ChrisCantHaveItAll]

@lsprings8 not being funny right but if you can't laugh at yourself, you can't laugh at anything. Also comedy is always gonna offend someone, just deal with it, its not disrespectful, its just funny. Serafinowicz probably loves Brando, but even if not who cares because its just comedy

[lsprings8]

@ChrisCantHaveItAll You can deal with it and I wont deal with it. It may not offend you, but it offends me. People who were close to him and knew him probably would be offended. Everyone has a right to feel however the hell they want to feel. Enough said on this subject. It's been overtalked about.

[ChrisCantHaveItAll]

@lsprings8 and over thought about by you. People can feel how they want to feel and I feel like you need to stop letting it get to you so much, its just a silly little sketch. Why you even watching it if you don't like it so much? and if you post a negative comment on a video on youtube, expect to get some backlash

[lsprings8]

@ChrisCantHaveItAll Sometimes online communications can get lost in translation. Please know that it is not getting to me that much. The event I attended in New York with his son and Warren Beatty and all of his close friends brought you much closer to Marlon as you heard all the personal stories. I see no point in making a mockery out of a genius actor. Believe me when I tell you that I do not take things so seriously. I just didn't appreciate being told to 'just deal with it' .. that's all.

[ChrisCantHaveItAll]

@lsprings8 i don't care, stop messaging me please. I'd forgotten we'd even had this discussion until you messaged me again. This isn't some sort of who can have the last say contest I was just saying things are always going to offend people and blah, blah, blah, it doesn't matter as we both have opinions that are at the opposite ends of the spectrum so just forget about it

[PrivateAckbar]

@lsprings8 Oh get over yourself. The problem is your seriousness. It's a hilarious, clever bit.

[lsprings8]

@PrivateAckbar Don't kid yourself. Sophistication for those who don't have it can often be mistaken for all sorts of things. I notice how many people disapproved of this video clip .. I am certainly not alone.

[PrivateAckbar]

@lsprings8 You're not sophisticated and neither is this problem. It's very simple; you have taken a joke seriously. Ponder that you pretentious prick.

[gorgolyt]

@lsprings8 being an iconic figure in american history is like winning the special olympics.

[ShyAwayPhantom]

@LordYaoi It has nothing to do with being "funny" because it's British. It's funny because..you know...it's funny.

[LordYaoi]

What is a Peter Serafinowicz and why is it making fun of the long dead Marlon Brando's weight?

[choot49]

@LordYaoi you posted negative comments on how many of his videos in the same hour?? Why would you continue watching his videos if you evidently don't enjoy them. Go outside and enjoy life fella.

I see americans fail to see the humour. How surprising..

[LordYaoi]

@choot49 I was giving him the benefit of the doubt by checking to see if any of them were remotely funny but they were not. A true critic doesn't worry about wasting time or being bored when passing judgement, it's just a matter of behaving professionally. Seriously though, it's nothing against British humor as a whole, there are a couple of British comedians who are very funny and talented..this guy just stinks really bad.

[choot49]

@LordYaoi What a load of bollocks. Obviously you're slightly upset with this englishman you've never heard of taking the piss out of an American actor. You are American I can assume.

You're entitled to your opinion, but judging from the comments and the likes of this video, you are in the small minority.

And to compare Monty Python to 'some amateur high school stage project,' shows that, frankly, you can shove your pretentious opinions up your arse.

[Ibringthetruth1]

The Jews hate Brando for what he said on Larry King.

[attemptingtobehumble]

@Ibringthetruth1 Exactly that is why they are doing this shit.

[moviejacker]

British, thats why it pathetic.

Brando is years ahead of connery, roger moore, in acting.

Different accents,

[jarmers88]

pathetic

[xanax189]

I'm asking a question: why...?

[logom0]

STOP TALKIN...YOU GOTTA STOP TALKIN NOW!

[jigsaw9919]

brando the hutt

[ItsNicksterMan1]

The reason this motherfucker isn't popular is because he makes fun of the most respected actors of Hollywood. FUCK YOU

[peskasker]

@ItsNicksterMan1 QQ

[niptuck117]

@ItsNicksterMan1 Don't cry. You'll be fine. It's hilarious. If you can't take a joke, then that's pathetic.

[sturatcliffe]

@ItsNicksterMan1 --- It's up to me whether or not I respect Marlon Brando. If the junkies and sluts of Hollywood respect him that's their business. Don't worry about Serafinowicz's popularity, that's not what he's aiming for.

[dazerbrah]

making fun of brando, real classy you fucking loser.

[peskasker]

@dazerbrah QQ

[sturatcliffe]

@dazerbrah --- What's wrong with making fun of Brando?

[annnnnnnnnnnnas]

couldnt stop laughing for half an hour

[theimmaculatecrown]

@TheZapzupNZ ..reminiscence..lol.

[santigarciarosa]

Idiots

[GHOST1130166]

LOOK AT MEH! 5:59

[DDTphoenix]

this is shit

[userdeafy]

Five times Shit

[Szpulenso]

TheZapzupNZ it is 22 not 52

[salvadormarley]

Fuckin hilarious.

[nineteenforty7]

Not at all funny...

[PabloPena108]

not funny

[SilentIvo]

@PabloPena108 Why?

[Scotlank]

46 people baked their head into a pie... a head pie.

[zanbimaru]

45 people are gonna get an offer they cant refuse

[heshthunder2]

clean that up, clean it up!

[heshthunder2]

mr mcmacintosh

[heshthunder2]

45 ppl failed at putting their heads in the oven and then baking it to a pie lol

[zouanmagic]

Not funny

[Mastadick]

GENIUS! And addictive. Peter is brilliant, as always. He's criminally underrated as an actor, just cause he does comedy.

[HawkeyeXXV]

Pretty stupid and just an obvious smear

[karadan100]

@HawkeyeXXV Well Brando was a notorious asshole.

This sketch is funny.

[SavageInsight]

@karadan100 Brando was NOT an @sshole. He was a sophomoric prankster!! bwahaha!

[karadan100]

@SavageInsight hahaha :)

[SMGrawks]

All this because he once said on Larry King that you can criticize any ethnic group except the Jews. Think about it! Despite all his liberal work and politics, it only took that one observation to make every Jew his enemy and they still aren't done attacking him!

[HawkeyeXXV]

@SMGrawks Yeah thats pretty obvious ...its not even funny

[sturatcliffe]

@SMGrawks --- You prove that all antisemites really are morons: Serafinowicz is Liverpool Catholic, and if you're interested in the Jewish thing, have a look what his granddad did during the war.

[meshumekha]

Haunting.

[ArranoGris]

Is this a Jabba the Hut reference or a God Emperor of Dune reference?

[ArranoGris]

Girl on the right in the front looks like Ana Kasparian from The Young Turks.

[ermac59]

hahahhahahahahahahhaha

[omglep19]

NOT FUNNY!

[niptuck117]

That tail is fucking great.

[DonRMB]

Wait a second!!! That woman in the middle of the crowd(the one with the blue jacket) Wasnt she in PULP FICTION!? In the Mia Wallace Overdose/Adrenaline shot Scene? Looks like her..

[Dalek1230]

@DonRMB  no

[elitestar]

LOL its jabba the hut

[eaglekestrel]

brilliant!



[logom0]

STOP TALKIN, YOU GOTTA STOP TALKIN NOW!

[BigMiniFilmz]

Its funny because Brando actually did use que cards in the godfather. Didnt really focus on his lines.

[hoghash78]

Fuck, my face hurts....I won´t try to describe how funny that was.

[landgabriel]

More like an obese DeNiro.



[FangedTsuruya]

I actually think this was one of Peter Serafinowicz better impressions (i mean look at the Ralph Fiennes one) and hellsfoxes is right Marlon Brando never gave a fuck what anyone though about him. also, is that chick at the end Bernie from the Commitments?

[benxander]

@FangedTsuruya The Ralph Fiennes one wasn't an impression, it was a parody of one of his roles.

[hoghash78]

OKG , this is one of the funniest things I´veever seen. I wish it lasted longer.

[hellsfoxes]

hahaha all the americans on here defending brando are hilarious.. you think brando would give a fuck if he saw this video? he'd be like, hey peter if your getting paid fuck em all

[cheddarcheesebob]

i'm not exaggerating, i swear on my mothers grave; i laughed harder than i ever have IN MY LIFE at the end when he suddenly had the pile of feces next to him and started yelling at them like how dare they what kind of place is this. harder than ever in my LIFE

[cheddarcheesebob]

@cheddarcheesebob and the actress in the front: Belinda Stewart-Wilson, words can't do her justice

[hoghash78]

Shit my pants a little. Wow

[13hehe]

it always disgusts me when people knock on Brando's weight issue, to mock someone on their physical wellbeing and health is just poor taste to me. Those people should wish they looked half as good as Brando did in his hayday.

[Hearts64]

I've seen the other masterclasses where like a caricature artist, Peter Serafinowicz pokes fun at actors by exaggerating their most famous qualities. And he's hilarious.

However he really crossed the line with the fat suit. Honestly he could have found a way to make fun of Brando without mocking his physical appearance. Same with making Pacino look short... I think that's just in poor taste.

[Lady1991ist]

english acting is terrible there are way more funny people that are american than english yes the english might be funny in the uk but that does not say enything you have to make it in america before you are a big star

[CannibalWhirm]

@Lady1991ist Ricky Gervais is huge in america and I think he's a cunt, explain that one?

[paytal159]

@Lady1991ist you are completely clueless, american comedians arent that good, i think english are better, still thats just my opinion, anyway what you are saying means that the american audience is going to determine which actors are good and which are bad? that makes no sense at all. specially after comedies like american pie or happy gilmore

[rigs345]

@Lady1991ist you're obviously not one of them

[angelinajoanie]

that's just so wrong :(

[Ladygagsalot]

It's a bit too much

[Ackworth97]

lalalalalalala! lol so funny, got better when everyone started joining in

[thisrainykitten]

Not even funny. Sad. Actually disgusting.

[kinglaith7]

He seriously looks like he's in pain.... and eww, but great impression.

[marcaozim]

es una falta de respeto al Maestro Brando... pendejos, envidiosos... deberian buscar algo productivo que hacer!!!

respeten a ese gran icono de la actuacion!

[morpDprime]

WTF! I thought this was a mad T.V. sketch it's so unfunny. *facepalm*

[guitarsz]

HAHAHAHAH

[KeTeVemCovers]

Mr. McMacintosh lol

[compusmentis]

you disrespectable fuck. fuck you for posting this. brando showed us feeling., you never would have known that if it wasnt for him.

[bkboy747]

@compusmentis i assume you're not into comedies
