Meet Marlon Brando and Julius Caesar are screening for FREE on Thursday, December 15th at 7:30PM

Maysles Cinema presents a Free end-of-year double feature of the brothers’s Meet Marlon Brando alongside a 16mm print of Julius Caesar (1953).

Meet Marlon Brando
Albert Maysles, David Maysles, 1966, 29 min

Meet Marlon Brando is a delightful, unusually candid portrait of the world-famous movie star: A tongue-in-cheek confrontation with the press. While television journalists interview him about his most recent film, Brando counters their futile questions with wit and insight, a man unwilling to sell himself. The film premiered at the New York Film Festival in 1966.

Julius Caesar
Joseph L. Mankiewicz, 1953, 120 min.
Projected on 16mm

Featuring one of Marlon Brando’s most underrated performances as Mark Antony, Mankiewicz’s Julius Caesar stands out as a sterling adaption for Shakespeare traditionalists, pitting Brando’s Method against two English heavyweights (James Mason and John Gielgud) with fascinating results.
