The force is strong with ALEC GUINNESS who upsets top seed MARLON BRANDO in the first round of the 50's classic movie actor tournament...

Well the first round of the 50's bracket in the classic movie actor tournament is in the books. And top seed Marlon Brando is gone. He was knocked out by Sir Alec Guinness 23-22 in one of the biggest upsets in any of the tournaments. What makes this upset even more amazing is that Guinness had to beat Richard Burton to even get into the tournament. Wow! I will be the first to admit, I voted for Alec. Another upset was 12th seed Frank Sinatra knocking off he-man Charlton Heston (5th seed) 24-22. 2nd seed and heavy favorite William Holden had no problem beating Danny Kaye 41-5, in the round's most lopsided match.  And I was heart-broken seeing my man Dean Martin lose to Burt Lancaster. Dang. Here are the complete results to all the matches.
