Marlon Brando: Young Lions

The sad thing about seeing this is that Brando in his twenties was arguably the most handsome, sexiest man ever to come out of Hollywood. How he let himself become obesse, as did another handsome young man, Orson Welles, is beyond comprehension. Young people today, who only know Brando from the Godfather, cannot imagine what he was like in his prime.
The move to Illinois ... propelled young Brando's unruliness in the face of authority, such as pouring hydrosulfate into his high school's blower to create a rotten-egg smell. Other friends noted his insatiable curiosity about nature, his self-taught skill on drums and his love of body-building -- all of which helped define his restless physical charisma.
Producer Jerry Wald had Brando lined up for a movie version of Dr. Robert M. Lindner's non-fiction work about the analysis of a young criminal. The project was shelved, but later, reconstituted with another script concept and leading man.
