5.0 out of 5 stars 2010 Release?, August 13, 2007

This review is from: Brando: The Documentary (DVD)

I saw this documentary on TCM and thought it was a fascinating look at Marlon Brando. Loaded with footage from his films and commentary by many Hollywood stars who've worked with him, it's a must own. I must say I'm rather puzzled by the 2010 release date. I've read on other DVD release date sites that this documentary is being released on DVD 10/09/07. Come on, Amazon. If that is the proper release date, make the correction so I can pre-order this!

5.0 out of 5 stars What the...?!?, October 25, 2007

This review is from: Brando: The Documentary (DVD)

I too saw this documentary last summer through OnDemand, after it aired on TCM, and I fell in love with it immediately. I went to the TCM website to see if the DVD was available, and I even signed a petition to get it released to DVD as soon as possible.

I was really looking forward to this DVD being released in October of 2007 (especially since my birthday is here and it's at least one DVD that I could "hold out for" as a birthday gift), and now it appears that I have to wait until I'm THIRTY-SIX to get it.

I agree: this has to be a typo (the 2010 release date). I called a retail store the day before it was scheduled to be released and they were forthright enough to say that it wasn't scheduled to arrive, but that they'd call me when it did, as they anticipated it "slipped under the radar". I haven't heard from them since.

"Radar" my "streetcar".

I'm disappointed that one of the best documentaries I've seen in the last few years isn't making its way onto DVD. Perhaps if TCM aired it again (and there is no mention of it on the November schedule--I've already checked), it would generate more interest.

Sadly...

5.0 out of 5 stars The Definitive Brando Documentary!!---Please release it soon!!, April 12, 2008

HE WHO FUNKS BEHIND THE ROWS!! (Seattle & San Diego) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Brando: The Documentary (DVD)

I too, like many of the other reviewers, first saw this on
Turner Classic Movies last year when it first aired.
I absolutely loved it and feel like the Brando fan will get
a clearer picture into what this iconoclastic actor was about!
Of course, as complex a person as Brando was, there is no way
that we will know the full picture!
Great interviews with Pacino, Depp, Robert Duval, James Caan,
etc. sharing great stories and insights along the way.
The only problem is that the powers that be are dragging
their butts on releasing this to DVD!!---What's the hold up?
