Editorial Reviews

Product Description

There is only one Yul Brynner. No other actor had his looks, his range of talents, his energy, and his capacity to draw others into the spell of his charm. A true sophisticate of deliberately mysterious origins, Yul Brynner was at home in a wide variety of languages and social environments. At an early age he found his perfect role in The King And I.

The Academy Award-winning success that might have become a trap for a lesser star, became the ongoing glory of his career from the peak of his stardom to his untimely death. Including clips from The Ten Commandments, The Magnificent Seven, The Brothers Karamazov, and Westworld, and interviews with former wife Doris Brynner, children Rock Brynner and Victoria Brynner, actors Eli Wallach, Rita Moreno, director John Frankenheimer and others.

5.0 out of 5 stars the man who will always be king, September 11, 2009

By	Sharon J. Lewis "Brynner fan" (Nevada, U.S.A.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This video is a series of interviews with people who knew Yul Brynner, including his son, one of his daughters, and one of his ex-wives. There are clips from his movies and events in his life. All together the video presents a well rounded picture of the man that he was.

One thing that I enjoyed in this video was the way his talents, other than acting, were related. I learned things about him that I hadn't known before. Of special interest to me were the interviews with his children. They both express a deep love and admiration for their father and I felt that brought him down from the pedestal that we often put entertainers on and put him on a human level that gave me a better understanding of what type of person he really was.

For the true Yul Brynner fan I recommend this video, if for no other reason than seeing this beautiful man in action, so to speak.
