Charlotte Zwerin, 16mm, b/w, 29 mins.
Film Synopsis:
Meet Marlon Brando is a delightful, unusually candid
portrait of the world-famous movie star: A tongue-in-cheek
confrontation with the press. While television journalists
interview him about his most recent film, Brando counters
their futile questions with wit and insight, a man unwilling
to sell himself. "It's a wonderful show," one woman comments
about the new project. "Did you see it?" he asks. "No, I haven't
seen it yet." "Then how do you know?" Always smiling and never
modest, Marlon Brando shines in one of his most revealing
performances. The film premiered at the New York Film Festival
in 1966, and has been telecast with much acclaim in France.
