Marlon Brando and My Consciousness
After lunch, and messing around on the computer at home, I had another volunteer shift over at The Egyptian Theatre . I was at the table selling memberships.
Tonights movie was "The Godfather" with Marlon Brando .
How's that for a switch ? This morning, I am at Church Sunday School with the 3 year olds, and tonight I'm watching "The Godfather". Life is interesting.
I must have seen this movie when it came out. Or maybe I have seen it on TV. I knew what was going to happen before it happened.
So I must have seen this before some time some where. Though I can't really remember. Or at least the memory is not anywhere in my recent consciousness. It is buried somewhere deep deep down. Its all in there some where.
It was really weird to know that a scene was coming up. And then not really remember the actual movie.
"Oh,no this is the Horse Head scene." "Oh, this is where the wife dies." How did I know that ? How could I remember that ? I don't even remember the movie.
Its quite possible my Mom took me to see it back when it first came out in 1972 when I was about 14. She used to take me and my sister to all kinds of movies. And if she didn't want to take us - or if the Catholic Church condemned it - we would beg and beg. Well, I would beg and beg, and my younger sister would back me up. Even at young age, I followed the movies. I would read the Entertainment Section of the Chicago Tribune , and I would know what movies were popular.
Thats how we got our Mom to take us to see "Kentucky Fried Movie" , which was really considered Sinful at the time. We all laughed ourselves silly.
As for "The Godfather"... I have noted previously that Bloody parts in movies make me light-headed. And I am a big Animal person.
But I knew it was the Horse Head Scene before I saw the Horse Head. So I closed my eyes. I only peaked twice. I had a piece of paper to fan myself. And I just didn't watch the screen again until it was over.
You would think that since I have acted in a few things, my brain would be completely aware of what is Real, and what is just fake Hollywood Blood. But its not, and I still need to close my eyes during the gruesome scenes.
