Marlon Brando: Portraits and Film Stills 1946-1995

Rating:
Summary: Brando was a weirdo already in his young days!
Review: They say that there is a very thin line between that of the genius and the maniac. As for Mr. Brando this is definetely true. The interview with Capote is very akward and he seems as cynical as Holden Caufield and this by itself is not a good thing. Marlon Brando : Portraits and Film Stills 1946-1995 by Truman Capote (Editor), Lothar Schirmer (Editor) is a wonderfull biography with very nice photographs and exceptional movie stills. Highly Recommended.

Summary: A fantastic overview of Marlon Brando's life and career!
Review: What an incredible book...I am not usually in the habit of buying books, but I couldn't resist when I saw the cover!! I am a huge Marlon Brando fan...an understatement to say the least. I have been hooked since I first watched "A Streetcar Named Desire." I don't think that there has been a more beautiful actor (and that even includes Paul Newman!) I have managed to get my hands on every Brando movie possible!! He had more than just a beautiful face though; there was a presence about him that was just mesmorizing! I get very upset when people speak of Brando's wasted talent, or what a sad joke his life has become..........we will always have his films and portraits to cherish! As it was stated in his biography, the world definitely "heard" from Marlon Brando!
