TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Marlon Brando's performance in this film was mostly improvised. Director Arthur Penn eventually gave up on him, and decided to just let him act whatever way he wanted.

Jack Nicholson did not like the fact that Marlon Brando used cue cards while filming. In their scenes together, Nicholson broke his concentration every time Brando shifted his gaze to the cue card behind the cameraman.

The title refers to the film's main setting, the rugged north-central Montana region, where the Missouri River is said to have "breaks", cutting into the land, due to the rough rising of the river.

According to Robert Silva's "Dustin Hoffman in Spurs? Method Actors Show the Old West Who's Boss", the whole production was affected by Marlon Brando's bizarre behavior, which allegedly included biting a frog and catching grasshoppers at the end of the day's shooting.

Original publicity reported that Marlon Brando ad-libbed so much, that a special stenographer had to be flown in from California to record Brando's ad hoc poetry and spontaneous dialogue.

Popular Dialogues

"Tom Logan: [to Clayton, whispering] You know what woke you up? You just had your throat cut."

"Hellsgate rancher: They call this country Hell's Gate. When my dad came in here, it was nothing but a bunch of savage Indians. And Jesuits. Old Thomas Jefferson said that he was a warrior so his son could be a farmer, so *his* son could be a poet. And I raise cattle so my son can be a merchant, so his son can move to Newport, Rhode Island and buy a sailboat and never see one of these bastard-ass sons of bitching mountains again. Si: Who was Thomas Jefferson? Hellsgate rancher: A guy back east."
