A new book released on the tenth anniversary of Marlon Brando's death shares insights into the iconic actor's love life.
Brando, known for his immense s**ual appetite, had relationships with numerous Hollywood stars, both male and female.
However, he was picky when it came to his partners, turning down Elizabeth Taylor due to her “small” posterior and Sophia Loren because of her “dinosaur-like” breath.
In a surprising revelation, the book uncovers Brando's first love at the age of four – his housekeeper Ermi.
Brando describes how they would sleep together at night, both nude, and he would admire her body and fondle her bre-sts.
This early experience is said to have sparked his lifelong obsession with s**.
Brando also admitted to having homosexual experiences, claiming that he slept with men such as Cary Grant, Rock Hudson, James Dean, and Laurence Olivier.
The book suggests that his s**ual appetite was insatiable, leading him to have multiple lovers at the same time.
According to the author, Brando's need for s** with women became an addiction.
He wanted to be loved and sought to ignite passion in women, but he struggled to remain loyal.
Despite his reputation as a macho figure, Brando was described as gentle, sensitive, and compassionate, with a fascination for knowledge that rivaled his desires for women and food.
The book sheds light on Brando's troubled childhood, growing up in a household with alcoholic parents.
His relationship with his housekeeper, Ermi, played a significant role in shaping his preference for brunettes and women of Asian, East Indian, Hispanic, black, or Jewish descent.
Brando's father, who was jealous of his son's success as an actor, expressed contempt for the profession.
Brando's complex relationship with his father led him to confront his anger and work towards forgiveness.
He realized that living off hatred was not sustainable and chose to live off love instead.
The book also highlights Brando's talent for mimicry and his ability to imitate voices and accents.
In addition to his passion for acting, Brando had a love for literature.
He collected over 4,000 books and cataloged them under a system he created.
The book reveals that Brando's reputation as an intellectual lightweight was misguided, as he had a deep curiosity about various subjects.
Overall, the new book provides a nuanced portrayal of Marlon Brando, delving into his complex relationships, s**ual preferences, and personal struggles.
It offers a deeper understanding of the man behind the iconic Hollywood image.
