Book summary

A biography of Marlon Brando, based on eight years of research and more than 750 interviews. Brando did not want to see this book published, as it delves into the details of his childhood as the son of alcoholics, his notorious behavior during his early theater career, his expulsion from the military, his reputation as a womanizer, and the murder trial of his son, Christian.

Media Reviews


"A well-researched and well-written account of an actor who not only was often better than his films, but who also seemed to force the films into submission."

   -- Good Book Guide

Publisher Notes


Using information gathered from seven years of research and hundreds of interviews, a respected biographer offers an insightful and revealing look at the troubled and fabled life of Marlon Brando, one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.
