Vivid portrayal of a man who was by turns tremendously talented, tenacious and tormented.

An emotive and vivid portrayal of a man and actor who was by turns tremendously talented, tenacious and tormented. Featuring Marlon Brando's own audio tapes and home movie footage.

Stevan Riley's award-winning documentary Listen to Me Marlon uses hundreds of hours of Marlon Brando's own archival audio tapes and home movie footage, combined with excerpts from his extraordinary performances to create an exceptionally emotive and vivid portrayal of a man and actor who was by turns tremendously talented, tenacious and tormented.

Covering the full breadth of his life and career, this is a rare opportunity to experience the notoriously private Marlon Brando's feelings and fears in his own words, in order to see behind the actor's mask and meet the man that was Brando.
