Waltzing With Brando (2024) review

Or, An Advertisement for Marlon.  In the late 1960's, architect Bernard Judge (Jon Heder) flies to Tahiti to work on a new project which is where he meets stage-and-screen icon Marlon Brando (Billy Zane) who invites him to live with him, and the two of them put their thoughts together to try to develop the land in a safe way that respects the environment - while this is happening, Brando periodically leaves to act in screen projects (such as The Godfather).  The sole highlight of this biopic is Zane's uncanny appearance as the star (he has the mannerisms down ... but not the voice) since the rest of it plays like a mundane made-for-TV movie (with a few breasts here and there) and treats Brando as if he's a Patron Saint of the Environment: to show how "innocent" he is, he places a bee in his mouth and then lets it fly away.  Preserving the planet is an important topic for many (including myself), although I'm not sure that a feature film needs to exist solely as a promotional tool.
