Some 100 people. several Of

the White House since July

All legends, outlandish or
not, have some basis in fact.
But one thing Marion
Brando isn't is Stanley Ko-

"Streetcar Named Desire"
Stanley was intolerant
and selfish. Marion is nei-

A Sensitive Man
His enthusiasms are wild.
A sensitive man, he is easily
hurt but quick to forgive.
Most important, he is slow
to judge.
Ella Kazan, his discoverer
and early booster, recently
said that Brando early in his
career gave promise of being
the worlds greatest actor but
that his years in Hollywood
have not fulfilled that poten-
tial.
He's probably right" says
Brando. II need to go back
on the stage and sharpen up
my tools"
But that won't happen for
a while.
"All of a sudden, I have
become a capitalist, since
'Mutiny' went into high fl

days. He is intensely loyal
to them and some of the
actors among them work in

He has real concern for
people he likes and is gre

No publicity seeker, he is
one of the few major stars
who has never employed a
personal press agent.
Because he has done five

BY JAMES BACON

HOLLYWOOD.-This is a
toast in prose to much ma
ligned Marion Brando, with
out whom Hollywood would
be even deader than it is.
The town could use more
like him.
In these staid times, with
actors acting evermore like
bankers, he's one of the few
with verve and nerve enough
to raise a little good old
timey hell.
His celebrated off-camera
dramaticS shook 'em up good
during filming of "Mutiny on
the Bounty" and whether he
was a petulant child or the
saga's sage saviour doesn't
really matter.
The point is, by acting like
a very human human being
he endowed the production
with life and color that gave
both moviemakers and NOV
iegoerS something to talk
about, to the probable bene-
fit of both.
'Mutiny" probably will coin
more money than conserva-
lively made epics. despite its
fantastic cost, because of all
the hullaballoo.
Top of the Heap
It is significant that
Brando, condemned by many,
championed by few. is as
much in demand as ever. In
the prime of life at 38, he
stands lusty and dynamic at
the top of the Hollywood
heap.
What's he really like?
For an actor, he's odd for
this reason: He listens to
you. If he likes you, he's in
terested in you.
When you talk to Marion,
be careful. He asks questions
afterwards.
That's what drove Direc-
tor Lewis Milestone nuts dur
ing "Mutiny," a $25 million
remake of the tale of a Brit
ish crew that stole a ship and
fled to an island paradise.
Before he would take di-
rection," says Milestone. "he
would ask why. Then when
the scene was being shot, he
put ear plugs in so that he
couldn't hear my direction. I"

as such. one of the best pos

Artistic Only
Says Marion of his highly
publicized rebellion" on the
"Mutiny" set:
"Sure, ! staged my own re-
bellion but it was an artistic
rebellion-the only kind an
actor can stage. There is one
simple fact - MGM sent a
full company to Tahiti at a
cost of $4,000 a day at a time
when neither the script nor
the ship itself was finished.
when the ship (costing
$750,000 finally arrived, we
were in the midst of the
monsoon season. Those de-
cisions we're not mine.
Several top executives who
made those decisions are no
longer with MGM. I still am.
There's a lesson to be learned
there"
Of ear plugs, Marion says
he has always worn them in
scenes.
Acting is an illusion, a
form of histrionic sleight-of-
hand, and in order to carry
it off we'll, an actor must
have intense concentration.
Before I go into a scene,
I study it, almost pSychoana-
lyze it and then I discuss it
with the director, then re-
hearse it.
When actual shooting
commences, I put in ear plugs
to screen out the extraneous
noises that inevitably prick
at ones concentration"
No BrandO Yes Men
Marion is the first to ad-
NIT that his own what-the-
hell attitude toward Holly
wood generally and its press
specifically nourished his
early Stanley KowalSki

He will talk to only a few

from the political pundits.
Nevertheless, the summer

To be specific. it has dis
covered the so-called family

possibly may have had an

Clearly for Children
There is every reason, to be
sure, why the musical should
be the form most appealing
to the total household. Its
most seductive elements are
music, song. and dance. all
of which are directed at the
senses which are activated at
an early age and indeed are
most responsive in the young.
The musical, then, is more
clearly for the children than
any other standard form of
live entertainment.
Generally speaking. too.
the books of which the music,
song, and dance are an ex-

Rita Won an Oscar at Last,
Now Where Are the Roles?
BY HAROLD HEFFERNAN

North American Newspaper Alliance
HOLLYWOOD.-How much
is an Academy Oscar actually
worth to the winner?
The sad, old story of dis
illusionment, of leaping to
the heights of Hollywood
glory, only to plunge to the
near depths is echoed once
again, this time by a bewil-
dered Rita Moreno.
The Latin fireball, who
took happy bows from the
Santa Monica Auditorium
platform only last April 9 for
her supporting performance
in West Side Story" is still
waiting-for the choice sto-
ries and the big financial
windfalls which actors are
understood to achieve in the
wake of the honor of an
Oscar award.
Rita, after years of travail,
thought she had it made.
But she's still hunting the
rainbow,

Answer: Two or three years

discussion of words, Emily Kim
brough raised this self-same
point, somewhat to the baffle-
ment Of your columnist who
had long since grown accus-
toned to hearing presently
used in both senses by highly
literate people.
When I pointed out that
presently" in the sense of "at
the present time" had become
quite common in such publica-
tons as Harpers and the New
York Times, Miss Kimbrough
asked: do you mean to say
that the New York Times is
presently condoning such use of
the word?" and then burst into
laughter on realizing that she
herself had just unconsciously
used it in the sense she was
deploring. So we agreed that
both senses must now be &C
cepted as standard.
It's interesting to note also
that presently" in the sense
of "at the present time" is no
newcomer to the language. In
fact. the oxford Dictionary
traces it back to 1485 and
notes that this was the original
meaning Of the word. However.

~. THEY HAD NEVER
HEARD OF JOSHUA

Lusaka, Northern Rhodesia
(ANP) - A recent test at a rural
school revealed that neither pupils
nor teachers were aware that
neither pupils nor teachers were
aware that Joshua fit the battle
of Jericho.
A school inspector, on visit,
asked a small boy: who broke
down the Walls of Jericho?"
mot me, sir" the boy replied.
Surprised, the inspector queried
the teacher, who replied: THE boy
is quite honest. If he says he didn't
do it - I believe him. The in
spector, his surprise rapidly turn
ing to disgust, went to the head
of the school and explained
what had happened, and got this
reply: I've known both the teach
er and the boy for several years
and I'm sure neither of them would
do a thing like that"
The inspector left and later re-
ported the incident to the local
director of education, who, shrug-
cling his shoulders, said: II know
it's a bad business but let's not
worry too much about it. I suggest
we pay the bill and write the sum
off,
