"He had hidden his Oscars to keep them from being taken in a credit judgment"

Hard to believe. Didn't he hate the award? He sent an American Indian, Princess Little Feather or something, to collect one of them for him because he would not attend the ceremony? Turned out she was not even an Indian. He was protesting the treaty arrangements for some tribe or some other Indian issue at the time. I don't think he could have given a damn about the award he would not even pick up for himself and joked about most of the time. He didn't care much for Hollywood either and called it a 'cultural boneyard'. Not far wrong there though.

Turned out she was not even an Indian.

And if you saw her photo, you can see she was wearing some dopey department story type Indian costume.

A lot of that story is wrong.

Brando didn't send Little Feather to "pick up his Oscar." He sent her to tell the Academy that he was refusing to accept the Oscar completely.

It's my understanding he never took possession of his Oscar.

And his "one-bedroom shack on a hill in L.A." is a multi-million dollar, 15-room estate on top of Mulholland Drive next door to Jack Nicholson.

Brando was a great actor but a peculiar man.
