Marlon Brando (1924-2004) is an icon in the history of American cinema. When he passed away in 2004, The New York Times remembered "the rebellious prodigy who electrified a generation and forever transformed the art of screen acting... a truly revolutionary presence". From his beginnings in A Streetcar Named Desire (195I) to his mythic performances in The Godfather (1972) and Apocalypse Now (1979), Brando, who worked with such famous film stars as Elizabeth Taylor and Al Pacino, and such leading directors as Elia Kazan, John Huston and Francis Ford Coppola, has become a benchmark for other actors.

studies on the craft of the world's greatest

and film sequences. This innovative and beautiful
series on actors is accessible to enthusiastic
movie-goers as well as serious cinephiles, fans,
