Publisher Description:

When people think about Marlon Brando they think of the movie star, the hunk, the scandals. Here, Susan L. Mizruchi--who gained unprecedented access to Brando's letters, audiotapes, revised screenplays, and books--reveals the complex man whose intelligence belies the high-school dropout. She shows how Brando's embrace of foreign cultures and social outsiders led to his brilliant performances in unusual roles to test himself and to foster empathy in his audience.
