EXCERPT – MARLON BRANDO SELF-HYPNOSIS 1996 - original audio recording
“Listen to Me Marlon... This is one part of yourself speaking to another part of yourself. Listen to the
sound of my voice and trust me. You know I have your interests at heart... Just relax, relax, relax. I'mgoing to help you change in a way that will make you feel happier, more useful …. I want you to acceptwhat I say as true. What I tell you here and now is true.”
– Marlon Brando
THE FILM
With exclusive access to personal archive, this is the definitive Marlon Brandocinema documentary. Charting his exceptional career as an actor and extraordinarylife away from the stage and screen; the film will fully explore the complexities of theman by telling the story uniquely from Marlon’s perspective.
SYNOPSIS
Listen to Me Marlon is much less a factual recital of Brando’s acting career andpersonal life, than a creative odyssey into the mind and motivation of an enigma.Like an arch hypnotist Brando’s own voice lead the storytelling - there are nointerviewees, no talking heads, just Marlon guiding us into the padlocked recesses ofhis own memory, and through the story of his life.
In homage to the corkscrew personality of its subject, previously unheard audiotapes reveal witty and unexpected turns of Marlon’s thinking; dipping betwee n light
and dark, humour and self-psychoanalysis.
The non-linear approach leaps and drifts back and forth in chronology to helpillustrate memory’s haunting effect on the present. Visually the film conveys hypnoticstates and quixotic departures as we lose ourselves in Brando’s spoken daydreams,playful asides and confiding whispers.
As Marlon looks back on his legendary career, film clips are woven alongsidepersonal archive; the young Brando’s electrifying looks, raw performances andbrooding charm put us entirely under his spell, leaving no doubt why he onceskyrocketed to overnight stardom. In mid-life his meteoric comeback continues to
resonate, while the reclusive exile of later years offers up rare flashes of actingbrilliance from a waning supernova. The film draws narrative parallels betweenMarlon’s screen performances and personal life . And, as screen and real personabecome increasingly blurred, his entire life becomes the stage. Throughout, Marlonprovides a surprising range of insights – from his revolutionary methodology to hisrelationship with his father to his politics. What emerges is Brando’s intellectualintrospection, humour and sensitivity; a man in perpetual search for moral clarity.
The film’s undercurrent and final note will be one of celebration, a homage to acreative genius. The film is emotionally complex, revealing and insightful, butultimately playful and surprising, moving between harmonious and discordant notes
with eccentric virtuosity. Like Marlon himself.

LISTEN TO ME MARLON : THE MISSING ARCHIVE
Listen to Me Marlon is exceptionally placed to break the spell of silence, giving newvoice and unprecedented insight into its iconic subject.
Few realise that Brando hoarded a vast archive of personal audio materials over thecourse of his lifetime, now in the possession of the family estate and uniquely giftedto Passion Pictures for the production of this film.
Brando’s avowed intention before he died was to collate these materials into anofficial biography in film. Despite his devout dislike of self-publicity, his advancingyears nonetheless triggered an impulse to safeguard his own legacy. Necessarily hecommitted himself to this enterprise, unwilling to surrender such a delicateresponsibility to a third party. Plans were even afoot for him to become the subject ofhis own reality show.
But none of this was to be. Brando’s encroaching illnesses denied him his lastcontrolling wish, his life cut short in 2004. The archive however was preserved andkept, entrusted in his will.
Brando’s tacit hope was clear; that at a future date the archive would be put to itsintended use. With Listen to Me Marlon fate has finally come to pass. His voice willat last be heard and myth laid bare. It promises genuine revelation.
Listen to Me Marlon has been made with exclusive access to over 200 hours ofnever-heard-before audio tapes. Not only do these include Brando’s verbal studiesfor many of his famous film roles, but also a trove of his own intimate thoughts,recollections and insights.
Brando speaks explicitly and without guard. What is immediately apparent is howprofoundly curious and inquiring an intellect he possessed: an aspiring scholar andlifelong seeker of truth. Brando’s direct testimony fills the missing pieces of a hithertoill-formed jigsaw, capturing the essence and mood of the man and his character in allhis many complex shades and contradictions. Questions that have endured for over60 years will finally be answered. Who was the real Marlon Brando? What was histrue nature? His philosophy? For what did he stand? Which were the formative
experiences which sculpted his personality, and how were they brought to bear in hislife and work?
Listen to Me Marlon also presents itself as a revealing parable of modern timesovertaken by the cult of celebrity and fame. How does a youthful sex symbol copeinto old age with the pressures of celebrity culture – compared to those perhapsmore fortunate to have died young, such as James Dean or Marilyn Monroe? Whatpart did the media and we the public play in the psychological downfall of a man whoElia Kazan called “the gentlest person that I know”?

“ Success took away my sanity... I searched but never found what I was looking for. Mine was aglamorous life but completely unfulfilling.”
- Marlon Brando
LISTEN TO ME MARLON : THE 3D HEAD
Marlon Brando had his face digitized in the 1980s by VFX supremo Scott Billups
using cutting edge software of the time called Cyberware.
Director Stevan Riley was told about the existence of the digital files by BrandoEnterprises and immediately decided he wanted to track them down. Stevan’sambitious vision was to create a bold, impressionistic - occasionally disconcerting – visual of Marlon, as never seen before.
The scans were tracked down by Billups, and cleaned up in California before beingshipped to Passion Pictures Academy Award winning CG animation studio. PassionPictures put their best animation team on the job and under Stevan’s guidance, theyused the original files and brand new techniques and software to create a stylised
animated version 3D head. The technique effectively maps facial movements, sothat the face directly corresponds to some carefully chosen sequences of Marlon’spersonal audio archive.
Stevan’s intention was to avoid pushing the image anywhere near photo-realistic. Hespecifically wanted the head to feel degraded or malformed and confused, coming inand out of focus to reflect Brando’s attempts to ‘find himself’. Stevan was similarlyspecific about which words he wanted to match, via MoCap, with Marlon’s audio.Towards the end of the film – there are five shots in total – the head becomes moresolid but never fully ‘whole’.
The final result presents an exciting and entirely unique element to the film, furtherenhancing the visceral intimacy of the film while granting the audience an entirelybrand new aspect of - and performance by - Marlon Brando.

DIRECTOR'S STATEMENTFor Listen to Me Marlon I had the gift of exclusive access to a wealth of previously unseenand unheard personal archive.
What struck me most was the privilege of hearing Marlon’s own voice – his unguardedthoughts, ramblings, asides, anecdotes. This was something so immediately engaging andintimate. As if Marlon was at my shoulder.
For the purpose of research I went out to the States to meet as many people from Marlon'slife with whom he was close: family, friends, fellow actors; personal assistants and otherstaff. Conversations with all these people were extremely valuable and gave me a deepand rounded insight into Marlon's personality. It became clear however that Marlon's lifewas quite compartmentalised and many of his relationships ended up being separate fromone another. As such I came to detect different versions of Marlon Brando which revealedcertain knotty complexities and contradictions. This made me even more determined to
give voice to the only person truly qualified to reveal Brando's soul and essence - MarlonBrando himself.
I decided on a supremely distinct approach. Could the story of Marlon’s life be told entirely inhis own voice?
Marlon’s personal audio archive existed in countless different forms that Marlon hadmeticulously assembled throughout the course of his life - family recordings and otherprivate conversations; extensive creative notes that he made when preparing for film roles;endless intimations and notes to self; and even self-hypnosis tapes. We then chased downevery single interview that he'd ever given on TV and radio from sources worldwide, as wellas uncovering rare tape recordings that some print journalists had kept stowed away.
The process of piecing together Marlon’s voice required the patience and sensitivity of apsychoanalyst, and I had to be nimble enough to keep pace with the tangential whims of hiscreative mind. It was no small feat, made harder by the web of deception and mistruth spunby the media and Marlon himself. Breaking everything down into a digestible form fromwhich to build the narrative was also monumental task and took a couple of monthsalone. Once done, it allowed me to construct separate tracks of story which runconcurrently in the film, exploring all ages of Brando - Marlon the young boy from Nebraska;Marlon the actor; and Marlon the elderly man looking back on his life from his MulhollandDrive retreat.
Given that the film's key construction is the perspective of Marlon Brando himself, I wanted
to craft a cinematic landscape of Marlon's own thoughts and internal dialogue. The audio istightly coupled to the film's visual presentation. Carefully selected archive, graphic imageryand originally filmed material provide the palette. At times direct, other times abstract, theintention is that the audio-visual mix draw the audience into the workings of a conflictedmind. The passage may not always be smooth, alternating in time, space and mood toreflect Marlon's capricious nature. Suspicion and conviction swap places as we disentanglethe knots of a supremely intelligent and eccentric mind.
Listen to Me Marlon's biggest achievement will be to pull down the mask and reveal thetruth of Marlon's soul. I sincerely hope his legacy and dying wish will be complete. I hope hewould be proud of this film.
- Stevan Riley, January 2014.
