Brando gives his all but just ends up becoming himself. Interesting for it's historical notoriety, but overlong and dull in places.

An uneven, convoluted, certainly dispute-provoking study of sexual passion in which Marlon Brando gives a truly remarkable performance.

The operatic extravagance of Bernardo Bertolucci's style has emerged more clearly since this 1972 drama, which still managed to seem vaguely naturalistic in the midst of its extravagant camera moves and eccentric construction.

Bernardo Bertolucci's controversial drama is actually a dark, torrid masterpiece about love and grief.

The movie is sad, but it's also hugely funny, occasionally when it doesn't mean to be.

Brando is interesting here, as usual, but much of the film is repetitious, as we explore the unspoken past of Brando and present of Schneider.
