For Marlon Brando, the filming of "Last Tango in Paris" proved to be difficult. Part of his character relates some of his unhappy childhood memories to his younger lover. The dialogue for the scene resembled Brando's own adolescence to a certain extent and the actor felt vulnerable and perturbed after the scene had been filmed.
A documentary made entirely out of archive footage and Marlon Brando's own words from recordings, confessionals, and self hypnosis.
In a late 1970s interview, Brando admitted to feelings of shame and embarrassment when he accepted the Oscar for Best Actor for "On the Waterfront." He dismissed the Oscars ceremony as being "manipulation."
For the first time in Brando's own words, the fans got to hear the actor discuss the various styles and techniques of acting, who Brando's idols were etc.
When James Dean arrived on the Hollywood scene in 1954, he immediately became influenced by Marlon Brando - both in terms of his acting style and what Dean believed was Brando's lifestyle. Brando did his very best to discourage and dissuade the upcoming star from any of this.
During Brando's childhood, he discouraged any of his friends from coming to his home.
