Marlon Brando, Jr. was an American actor, film director and political activist.
Biography[]
Marlon Brando in The Godfather.
Marlon Brando was Mutt Williams' favorite film star alongside James Dean.[1] Williams modeled himself after one of Brando's film characters.
Brando starred as the titular character of The Godfather, a depiction that was considered among historians as Capone-like.[2]
Behind the scenes[]
The scene in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull depicting the arrival of Mutt Williams in his black leather jacket on a motorcycle at Bedford's train station was meant as an homage to a scene of Marlon Brando playing outlaw biker Johnny Strabler, arriving on a motorcycle in The Wild One (1953), right down to the tilted cap.
