Thin, young Marlon Brando


Last Tango in Paris

Is it art, or is it porn? This controversial Bernardo Bertolucci�s psychodrama made waves instantly upon its release. It is the tale of an intense love affair ignited between two strangers (Marlon Brando and Maria Schneider) who meet while viewing an apartment.

Their intimate but anonymous liaisons become a hotbed of existential angst - or, some would say, just a hot bed.
