Show Notes

Marlon Brando - greatest actor of the 20th century?

Film critic Antonia Quirke definitely thinks he is.

But the star of the Godfather, On the Waterfront and A Streetcar Named Desire divides opinion in this lively assessment of his life.

Presented by Matthew Parris.

With contributions from writer Robyn Karney and Joe Queenan in the USA.

Producer: Miles Warde

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in May 2015.
