The Wild One (1953)
6/10
It's Iconic, but , , ,
7 March 2024
I'd always been curious about The Wild One as I'd heard it referenced countless times through the years. I'd also seen the now iconic image of Brando in the leather jacket and hat and wondered who that character was, what was he doing and what was he thinking. Well, I finally found out: it seems he wasn't really doing all that much and was just another lost soul searching for something, not sure what, but searching and disregarding as many societal norms along the way as he could. Other than the imagery of it all, and the enigmatic Brando himself, it's a pretty thin storyline. Collectively, it did keep me engaged for the duration and while it didn't live up to my vague and unjustified expectations, it is a must see for the true cinephile.
