Who did Marlon Brando play in the godfather?
One of the finest films ever-made, AFI* has rated "The Godfather"(1972) as the 2nd greatest film in World Cinema. Based on Mario Puzo's 1969 novel of the same name, was an influential Gangster genre saga based on a NYC Crime family of Sicilian descent led by the patriarch "Don Vito Corleone" played by Marlon Brando.Though Brando ultimately got the role, Paramount studio executives were unhappy over the director Francis Ford Coppola's initial choice of Brandoplaying the patriarch, since his reputation for being difficult and his moody nature had gained notoriety sullying his career, delaying production on a number of films.On Coppola's persistent pleading, Paramount chief Stanley Jaffe said that he will yield only if Brando would agree to a pay-packet lesser than his usual fee, agree to a screen-test, and sign a bond insuring he wouldn't delay production. Coppola chose Brando based on the Screen-Test in which Ernest Borgnine too had appeared.Other main contenders or choice for this role were Laurence Olivier, Orson Welles, Danny Thomas, Richard Conte, and Anthony Quinn but it was Brando who played it earning an Oscar for Best Actor in a leading role.*AFI- American Film Institute.

What role did Marlon Brando play in the movie the Godfather?
Playwright Tennessee Williams Pulitzer winning book of "A Streetcar named Desire" was adapted for Screen by Williams himself. It was a perfect vehicle for Marlon Brandowho became a towering Hollywood figure and is regarded to have defined a new concept and style of Acting after he appeared as the rustic and brutish Stanley Kowalski in the Elia Kazan directed film of the same name in 1951.Brando had already appeared in the Broadway version of this play in 1947 which was a big success but mass-appeal eluded him. Earlier after a disastrous schooling sojourn he found his true calling when he moved from Nebraska to NYC to join the "Actor's Studio". This school of acting propagated the 'method acting' under Lee Strasberg. It was in "New School Dramatic Workshop" where he studied with Stella Adler and learned the revolutionary tactics of the "Stanislavsky system".Brando's realistic acting style in "A Streetcar named Desire" (1951) garnered for him a Academy Awards Nomination for Best Actor and continued his nomination streak in his next 3 films in consecutive years winning the coveted award in 1954 for his portrayal as the vulnerable Terry Malloy in "On the Waterfront" directed by none other than Elia Kazan. Brando had a profound effect on stars like James Dean, Paul Newman, and to some extent Robert DeNiro.

Any ideas for a creative project on Marlon Brando?
Perhaps look back to Brando's earlier acting days, and build a project around that, rather than later films. His early days are powerful, and he was undoubtedly a superb actor. My personal favourite scene from a Brando film is in The Godfather. A scene where he is talking to his son, Brando has a cat in his arms. The cat is calm and happy, and its behaviour throughout the scene, to my mind, is a measure of Brando's calm and mesmeric performance. Check it out.
