R.I.P Marlon Brando. Whatever anyone thinks about him he was a great actor, and I'll always remember him as the Godfather.

Can't find any corroboration anywhere. I do not doubt your source though.

'Tis a sorry day for everyone. Brando was one of our finest actors, he will be missed. He will also live forever in our hearts and in our thoughts.

Rest in peace!

O.K., just got corroboration: www.google.com...

A sad day indeed.
