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.

Isn't that true of Most Movie or Singing Stars? I think the probelm is they start off as regular ol' folks and because they have a talent in the Entertainment Industry they become "Idols" to people all over the world? Well they are not DIVINE nor are they Jesus like or Angelic so as fragile human beings they fall on there face by becoming wierd peculiar and just "Strange"

The point is GOD is the only one worthy of Praise and he taught agaisnt Idol Worship. Moviestars are false idols and they know it...

Exactly. There are supposedly three homes on that hill. Jack Nicholson has one; Marlon Brando had another; then another one was owned by someone not in the business. That little shack had gates for the three owners.
