A TRUE MASTERPIECE This is true spellbinding stuff. A great story depicting the sad tale of "Rio" (Marlon Brando) and his quest to get even with the evil Dad Longworth (Karl Malden) for his betrayl of some stolen lute, friendship and trust. The one and only film directed by Marlon Brando, is a film of epic proportions that twists and turns until you feel eventual sympathy with the "Rio" character, after all the nastiness of the ill fated outlaw he once was. Excellently shot using panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean as a backdrop, a stirring film score, with taught direction. A moody and magnificinet Marlon Brando, the sultry Pina Pellicer (who sadly died shortly after the film) and the brilliant Karl Malden... THIS FILM HAS IT ALL.
