Marlon Brando will never cease to fascinate us: for his triumphs as
an actor (On the Waterfront, The Godfather, Last Tango in Paris),
as well as his disasters; for the power of the screen portrayals he
gave, and for his turbulent, tumultuous personal life. Seamlessly
intertwining the man and the work, Kanfer takes us through Brando's
troubled childhood, to his arrival in New York in the 1940s, where
he studied with the legendary Stella Adler, and at the age of
twenty-three became the toast of Broadway in A Streetcar Named
Desire. Kanfer expertly examines each of Brando's films - from The
Men in 1950 to The Score in 2001 - making clear the evolution of
Brando's singular genius, while also shedding light on the cultural
evolution of Hollywood itself. And he brings into focus Brando's
self-destructiveness, his lifelong dissembling, his deeply
ambivalent feelings towards his chosen vocation, and the tragedies
that shadowed his final years. This is a never-before-seen portrait
of one of the most extraordinary talents of the twentieth century.
