The film benefited from Marlon Brando’s large amount of audio and video materials during his lifetime, so that all his recordings and images could be used to produce this documentary. It did not emphasize his contribution in film history, nor did he excessively gossip about his private life. Emotions and thoughts are the axis, narrating his views and experiences on movies, the world, family, emotions, etc., restoring such a glamorous young, frustrated and decadent Marlon Brando, feeling real and moved.
