I'm the one person on planet Earth that never got Brando


This documentary 50 years later has changed my total thinking of Marlon Brando. I can only go to the movie" Street car Named Desire" & I can't imagine Brando working with the rest of the cast but he was just starting especially with Vivian. I did like him but I looked at the movie for the really distressing performance of V. Leigh . This film shows me how an actor goes through the process of acting.. What affected every performance but having Vivian, who was really mentally ill, to work with must have been some challenge. I only know references to Brando in second person . On Elaine Stritch's show she describes her working / dates with Brando. They never had sex but he never spoke to her off stage & requested she do the same. well she got a call out of the blue/ it's me Marlon do you want to go have a drink? She says he had the glass in his hand and as he said he was sorry he crushed the glass in his hand & it was bleeding , Elaine says. These tapes now allows me to watch his movies bc he's a lot like me in terms of privacy . Thank you for this film .
