Songs My Mother Taught Me

In this memoir, Marlon Brando talks of his struggle to become an actor, of his remarkable career first on the stage and then in film, and of his on- and off-screen relationships with a host of actors, producers and directors.

He talks candidly of a dislocated childhood and the effect this had on his subsequent life, of his driving ambition and the relentless determination which has characterized his choice of movies and his method of acting.
