Description

Mégastar dont la notoriété n'a d'égale que celle de Marilyn Monroe, Marlon Brando est, au-delà du mythe, un acteur d'exception, plus grand que nature. Patricia Bosworth se penche sur sa vie, ses films, et sur l'homme torturé qu'il a été, durant son enfance d'abord, puis au-delà, quand la célébrité l'a frappé sans prévenir. Avec ce portrait saisissant et fait sans concession, l'auteur, qui a déjà signé des biographies faisant autorité sur Montgomery Clift et Diane Arbus, nous permet d'y voir clair dans cette existence des plus mouvementées. Au-delà des scandales relayés par la presse, la biographe s'intéresse avant tout au travail de l'acteur et à ses relations avec des réalisateurs de premier plan comme Elia Kazan, Bernardo Bertolucci et Francis Ford Coppola. L'originalité de ce récit tient à ce qu'il transcende la figure mythique de Brando pour révéler le véritable artiste en lui, celui qui, par une approche intuitive du jeu, allait par la suite influencer profondément un grand nombre d'acteurs.
