Five movies starring legendary actor Marlon Brando. ‘The Young Lions’ (1958) follows the fortunes of three soldiers, one German and two Americans, from the time of their enlistment for World War II to the end of the war. Christian Dietl (Brando) is a German who starts out as a dedicated soldier but gradually becomes appalled by the Nazi movement. The American soldiers (Montgomery Clift and Dean Martin) meet as draftees, one a young Jew and the other an entertainer, and together endure Boot Camp and the campaign to retake France. All three characters finally meet in a confrontation outside a concentration camp. In ‘Morituri’ (1965), Brando stars in this adaptation of Werner Jeorg Kosa’s novel. Set during World War II, an anti-Nazi pacifist on a German freighter (who is seemingly working for the British) turns out to be a double agent who is working for a German spy. ‘Viva Zapata’ (1952), depicts the rise of the Mexican peasant Emiliano Zapata (Brando), from his role as revolutionary leader to his eventual ascendancy to the Presidency. In ‘Sayonara’ (1957), Brando is an army major who falls for a Japanese dancer and faces fierce opposition from both the American and the Japanese authorities when he wants to marry her. In ‘The Missouri Breaks’ (1976), prone to delivering strange monologues, wearing a dress, and taking the occasional bubble bath, ‘regulator’ Lee Clayton (Brando) is one of the most bizarre creatures ever to walk the West. But when he is hired by rancher David Braxton (John McLiam) to hunt down and kill horse thief Tom Logan (Jack Nicholson) and his gang, he proves devastatingly effective, ruthlessly dispatching each gang member until he comes face-to-face with Logan himself and the two of them battle it out in a final showdown.

The Young Lions: Academy Award-winning actor Marlon Brando captures the extraordinary contradictions and complexity of a decent man who winds up as a Nazi officer. The Young Lions tells the story of World War II from both sides. The American represented by Montgomery Clift and Dean Martin. And the German made tragically vivid by Brando. Based on the novel by Irwin Shaw. The Young Lions is a provocative insightful movie. It is also one of Brando’s all-time best. Morituri: Forced to pose as a SS officer German war deserter Robert Crain (Brando) must seize a German freighter booby-trapped to explode upon capture. Complicating the situation is the fact that sixteen prisoners of war are also brought on board including a beautiful young concentration camp survivor (Janet Margolin)… A captivating espionage thriller fronted by outstanding performances from Marlon Brando and Yul Brynner this criminally little-seen World War II film also features a devastating appearance by veteran British hand Trevor Howard and will keep you riveted until the very final scene… Viva Zapata!: The life and times of legendary Mexican revolutionary Emiliano Zapata are brought to the screen in Darryl F. Zanuck’s powerful production of John Steinbeck’s screenplay. Marlon Brando fresh from his success in A Streetcar Named Desire gives a stunning portrayal of the outlaw turned revolutionary leader. The film also boasts Anthony Quinn’s (Best Supporting Actor 1952) Academy Award winning performance as Zapata’s brother. Sayonara: Major Lloyd Gruver (Marlon Brando) a Korean War flying ace reassigned to Japan staunchly supports the military’s opposition to marriages between American troops and Japanese women. But that’s before Gruver experiences a love that challenges his own deeply set prejudices and plunges him into conflict with the U.S. Air Force and Japan’s own cultural taboos… Missouri Breaks: Montana Badlands rancher David Braxton is a self-made man. Through years of tireless effort and determination he has transformed his vast and rugged land into a thriving prosperous empire. So when his livestock his fortune are threatened by a ruthless horse thief Braxton takes matters into his own hands. Hiring a sadistic ‘regulator’ to track down the outlaw Braxton intends to liberate the territory from crime but what he initiates instead is a complex series of events that results in brutality and savagery far beyond anything he even thought possible…
