Listen To Me Marlon




Jean, This is the Showtime documentary film of Marlon Brando's life made using some of the many hours of tape he recorded over his life now at the Lark Theater.  Also uses the "digitized images" of his head he had made while he speaks many lines. This is eerie. It goes through his life, from his youth, Broadway and Hollywood years. Also his serial womanizing and the family tragedies are shown using newsreel films. What we do not understand is why he became so lazy. You feel for Francis (Coppola) and how he is treated by Marlon. It is a very interesting and sad film.  Dad

P.S. He talks about many of his films in specifics with film clips, such as " Mutiny on the Bounty" and why he disagreed with the director (Lewis Milestone).
