## Caption

Film director Francis Ford Coppola describes the exact moment Marlon Brando turned into Don Vito Corleone of "The Godfather."

Marlon Brando looked nothing like an aging Mafia don—he was 47 years old, with long blonde hair. Using dark shoe polish for his hair, rolled-up tissues in his cheeks, and a raspy mumble for his voice, Brando transformed into Don Vito Corleone right in front of Francis Ford Coppola's camera.
