Anthony Hopkins | Marlon Brando

Before he made his way into the spotlight, Anthony Hopkins already had a chance encounter with a star-studded figure. He came across the actor Richard Burton, who Hopkins has since credited as one of the people he looks up to. Well, today, Hopkins is considered one of the entertainment industry’s most recognized and talented actors, well-known for his role in films such as Thor, The Elephant Man, and most especially, The Silence of the Lambs.

One nice thing many celebrities do is praise the work of their colleagues. Such is the case for the Hannibal Lecter actor. During one interview, Hopkins talked about Marlon Brando, a Hollywood icon most known for his performance in The Godfather and Apocalypse Now. While explaining what made Brando such a great actor, Hopkins provided an impressive re-enactment of one of Brando’s parts in Apocalypse Now, with his spot-on impression being the cherry on top.
