Born in Nebraska in 1924 Brando, a rebellious youth, was taught by Stella Adler on his arrival in New York in 1943. Imbued with The Method, he impressed on Broadway and won the first of his five Oscar nominations in the 50s with only his second film, A Streetcar Named Desire (1951). He won for On the Waterfront in 1954, but the 60s saw him choose less well. Critical acclaim returned with his Oscar-winning portrayal of Don Vito Corleone, and he was nominated the following year for Last Tango In Paris.
