Brando is actually saying something, rather than all the fake chit chat we get now.

This is the truth…everyone acts. Some people just get paid to do it

Brando is spot on. I go to work every single day and ACT like I like it there.

Brando was so smart, and so intense. We're still learning so much from the man.

Not sure why Dick had to be so adversarial in a back and forth like this. Brando was illuminating something, and taking the time to be sincere about it, and his host was saying more or less, "I'm not interested in your thoughts...and I'm going to make it difficult for you."

Marlon was operating at another level entirely. <br>He was terrific and the feel on the human psyche was incredible

Hes so deep and intelligent. Its true what hes saying. Its hard to understand but yes it is acting in a different way then in a movie.

Brando was the TRUTH. He is 💯 correct that we all act daily, I’ve never seen an actor dissect a TV chat show hosts profession inside out like that to prove the concept, let alone the legendary Dick Cavett.
