✦ ? ????? ????? ?????? ✦Marlon Brando, who was born 100 years ago in April, was, by all accounts, not always an easy man in real life. But he was without a doubt one of the greatest American actors who influenced generations with his fiercely committed and complex portrayals of men struggling with their feelings. The stage thespian’s first major film role, in 1950’s ??? ??? (aka ?????? ??????) directed by Fred Zinneman, was an immediate home run, with The Hollywood Reporter already singling Brando out as a new star.
In the 1950s alone, the list of iconic roles is long: ?????? ??????, ? ????????? ????? ??????, ??? ???? ???, ???? ??????! and ?? ??? ??????????, all of which will be screened during our two-month retrospective that will conclude at the end of April.
Though often cast as a rebel or a tough guy – but with a sensitive soul – Brando also repeatedly demonstrated his impressive range. He was ????????’s alien father but also a lawyer in apartheid South Africa in ? ??? ????? ??????. He was a slick, singing gambler in the musical ???? ??? ????? but also the delirious Colonel Kurtz in Coppola’s ?????????? ???, shown in the Redux version on glorious celluloid.
The film that gave Brando his most recognisable role, as the title character in ??? ?????????, will screen on his birthday, April 3. And during the same month, we’ll show ??? ????????, a crime comedy in which Brando plays an Italo-American gangster who looks suspiciously… like the lead from ??? ?????????. Only someone as intense, talented and rebellious as Brando would dare to play the character of Don Corleone so close to satire whilst always remaining emotionally credible. And then do it again, but now on the other side of satire, some decades later.
