Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Brando shot 1 million feet of film and fired original director Stanley Kubrick, turning a 60-day shoot into 6 months.
The film's production chaos directly inspired the 'troubled production' subplot in Hearts of the West.

The best Brando picture of them all !!! And he was in his prime of life when he made and directed this..

Saw this great motion picture about 30 years ago and never forgot it. It made a powerful impression on me and still does. The late,great Marlon Brando is perfect for the role of Rio. Never was a fan of his but here he knocked it out of the ballpark. 9-23-2018
