Is this true ? Brando Dead according to CBS

[George Bellefontaine]

CBS says they learned Brando passed away Thursday. No cause of death was given but he was 80, so considering his weight, it probably was a heart or stroke thing. Wow, another great actor gone.

That's if the report is true.So far today I haven't heard anything about it on any of the major sources such as CNN.

Sad to say, the news of Marlon Brando's death is true. From the AP story in the Houston Chronicle:

Marlon Brando, who revolutionized American acting with his Method performances in A Streetcar Named Desire and On the Waterfront and went on to create the iconic characterization of Don Vito Corleone in The Godfather, has died. He was 80.

Brando died of lung failure Thursday evening at UCLA Medical Center, said Roxanne Moster, a spokeswoman for University of California, Los Angeles. She didn't give any details.

One of the most intriguing actors in the history of film. Too bad so many don't know of his early work such as Streetcar Named Desire and On the Waterfront. What a powerful actor.

RIP Marlon...
