I know the internet (including myself) is all up on Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Ryan Gosling for being ridiculously, ridiculously good looking, but let’s pay respect to the reigning king of  hot people: Marlon Brando. There are a million reasons that he’s sexier than all other people who have existed ever. These photos are just a few of them.

1. Because his hair looks so good messed up.

2. Because the man knows how to undress.

3. Because he could rock a leather jacket.

4. Because dirt and grease never looked so good.

5. Because you could seriously lick his face all day long.

6. Because there’s always that bad boy lurking in him.

7. Because seriously, dat smile.

8. Because you just died a little.

9. Because now you’re completely dead.

10. Because he goes with everything, even color.

11. Because even his deep thoughts are sexy.

12. Because you’re totally jealous of this girl, even though you don’t even know who she is.

13. Because from that look on his face, he probably just farted — and it’s still attractive.

14. Because even with two puffy eyes, he looks like a million bucks.

15. Because he got to the Caesar cut before Clooney — and did it better.

16. Because be honest: Old Brando could still get it.

17. Because this is the only face you’ll ever need to see.
