I've always been a bigger Newman fan. His acting just seems like real people in a situation...while Brando puts on his "ACTING" suit and struts around.

I love Newman...no doubt. Butch Cassidy, The Sting, **** even Road to Perdition is all great stuff. But Brando is...BRANDO. Probably the most important screen actor of the last 50 years.

C'mon now.

Paul Newman, he makes an awesome salad dressing.

 

[Addendum]

Both

The colour of money is a work of art...

Marlor Brando was a revolucionary of acting, he changed it all.

all the greatest actors like Jack Nicholson, Al Pacino, Dustin Hoffman and Robert De Niro have always said that they learnt from him.

You don't even realize Brando is acting,that's how good he is. Plus he came up with the whole meth-acting thing...Like if he going to play say...Jimi Hendrix,he'd have everyone call him Jimmy.He'd live the part. I really like Newman also,he was the man in the 60's

He didn't "come up" with it...it was originated by Konstantin Stanisklavski and taught to Brando essentially by Stella Adler, who was one of the few (if not only) American Students of Stanislavski)

Paul Newman is a much better person, simply a wonderful guy. While Brando seems to have been pretty dickish. However I don't think Newman quite takes it in the acting department vs Brando.

I believe it is method acting

 

[Lighthouse]

Love Paul Newman but I gotta go with Brando.

 

[Hades]

Hard to say.

I don't really think they're comparable.

Both great in their own right.

Both totally different individuals.

I'd say I'm more partial to Brando

Though I'll be sad as hell when Newman dies
