Watched the Marlon Brando two-part tribute doc that Turner Classic Movies played and really enjoyed it, but it made me sad seeing him age.

So I thought I'd cheer myself up with this scene from the Twilight Zone episode "The Bard." Here Burt Reynolds has Brando down, almost.

Almost as good as Chris Elliot on Letterman!

But here's Brando, the man!

Never have I watched one of these tributes and wanted to get all the movies and watch the subject's entire body of work as much as I did after seeing this TCM film. I guess there's no reason to be sad about seeing him swell up and get old and die, when I can always see him as Sky Masterson, Marc Antony, Terry Malloy, or Stanley Kowalski, anytime I want.
