Is that Marlon as in Brando? Full face not shown, but it looks more to me like Richard Burton in his younger days.
(I recall Jack Nicholson's comment about Brando while speaking about actors, "When Marlon dies, we all move up a notch".)

He might have filled it up with butter while he was dancing the last tango in Paris... and it just fell off.

Just wasn't expecting it at the time jawdrop.gif Looks like the guys are right . Just found this at Rolex Magazine : (quote) Apocalypse Now (1979) Rolex GMT Master In this next set of photos we see Marlon Brando wearing his Rolex GMT Master in the movie Apocalypse Now. Apocolypse Now was directed by Francis Ford Coppola, and Marlon Brando played Colonel Walter Kurtz. Notice his Rolex GMT Master is missing its bezel.  |

Mmmm... now I am thinking that for that film maybe Rolex wanted to get in but had to pay some $$ and since they did not.... well, they maybe just disguised the watch. Or, they just decided not to be a commercial vector. Taking the bezel off is easy, but I do not know if that really hurts the watch in the end.

I once saw a clip form an "adult movie" and the dude grabbed an handful of Crisco. Ever notice the number of Seiko Dive watches in "adult movies" I guess when you have watched as many "adult movies" as I have your ADD tends to make your mind wander and you check out the drapes and appliances in the kitchen and the fact that the bed spread doesn't match the sheets. Oh wait, we were talking about poon tang right? |

From memory, I think Marlon was a smacking with the chick... and suddenly he remembered he had forgot to follow his Urologist's instructions, so he asked the girl to check on his prostate's lobes. He could have used crisco but they were in France and they--got none--- of course, after that he was able to rise to the occasion.
