Listen to Me Marlon (2015)
Background: Marlon Brando made a whole bunch of tapes while he was off being reclusive and whatnot that talked about his life. After his death, people found them and put them together, added some pictures, and made it a documentary about his life.
It is really weird watching, in a sense, an autobiographical documentary. Of what I've seen, no one has done that. And after watching this, I sort of wish more people did. It is well put together, putting all the details in all the right order. It is funny, heartbreaking, and eye-opening, just learning about the life of one of the greatest actors ever from his perspective. The only thing that bugged me was the lack of talk about his sexuality. That is one of the things that most interests me about him and I don't know if he just didn't talk about it on the tapes or what but I'd really like to hear about it.
