In this video I visit the final resting place of Christian Brando , the son of legendary actor Marlon Brando. The song is Stories by Jory Nash available at Christian Devi Brando (May 11, 1958 – January 26, 2008) was one of the eleven children of Marlon Brando, and the only one Brando had with actress Anna Kashfi. On May 16, 1990, Brando fatally shot Dag Drollet, the boyfriend of his half-sister Cheyenne in the living room of his father's house in Beverly Hills, California. Drollet was in a four-year relationship with Cheyenne, who was 8 months pregnant by Drollet at the time. A few days before the incident, Drollet had flown in from Tahiti to Los Angeles to visit Cheyenne. Cheyenne was visiting her father along with her mother, and both were staying at Marlon Brando's residence. Marlon Brando had known the Drollet family for years. Christian Brando, however, had met Dag Drollet for the first time several hours before he shot him to death. On the evening of the killing, Brando and Cheyenne had dinner at Musso & Frank Grill, where Cheyenne told Brando that Drollet had been physically abusive toward her, which may have been untrue. Christian Brando said to a reporter from The Los Angeles Times, “She went off on this bizarre tangent.“ Later, around 11 p.m. that night, Brando, who admitted to being drunk at the time, confronted Drollet at the Brando home and shot him. Brando claimed that he did not intend to kill Drollet. “I just wanted to scare him,“ he said. Cheyenne was staying in a separate room. Christian Brando claimed that he and Drollet were fighting over the gun when it accidentally went off. In an interview with The Times, Brando said that later revelations about Cheyenne's mental health had made him question whether she was ever beaten by Drollet. “I feel like a complete chump for believing her,“ he said. Brando died of pneumonia on January 26, 2008, at Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center at the age of 49. He had been admitted into Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center on January 11, 2008. Brando was buried on February 17, 2008, at the Kalama Oddfellows Cemetery in Kalama, Washington.
