Brando by Peter Manso

Since Marlon Brando burst onto the scene wearing a sweaty T-shirt in "A Streetcar Named Desire", he has been considered the man who changed the style of the movies, the most influential and widely imitated actor of his generation. The characters he played in the movies pale in comparison to the real Brando: an intensely private man who has been called many things, from a genius to a lout, but because of his hesitation to talk to the press he has passed into myth. This book unveils the Brando mystique, involving Marlon's bisexuality and a lifetime of psychoanalysis. It includes a look at siblings, close friends, enemies, secretaries and children: including his daughter Cheyenne, whose lover was murdered by her half-brother Christian Brando.
