Well made character study of Marlon in his own words.
It moves through about 6 or 8 different 'chapters', wherein various quotes by him are edited together rather seamlessly, to create a particular 'emotion' of his.
Brando fans are going to love this.
This is not a biography documentary, although it does follow his career arc to tell the stories.
Basically, it's a window into his thought processes involving various 'situations' in his life.
What I really liked about it was it's focus on his childhood, morphing into his career, his wives, and mostly, his children.
The most powerful theme, for me? No matter how hard or far he ran from his parents and childhood? He couldn't prevent it's effects from touching his children.
Added bonus? This film is probably as expansive as we'll ever get on his thoughts concerning his craft, and how he approached it.
