Julius Caesar | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

Over Caesar's corpse Brando begins to mix grief, rage, cunning, and ferocity; his reading of the funeral oration is so quakingly angry you understand why it would rouse the rabble.

Director Joseph L. Mankiewicz manages to showcase the Bard's dialogue in a film that also has the visual appeal of Oscar-winning art direction.

Brando became a legend in gritty Elia Kazan productions, but it was his naturalistic approach in nonrealistic Mankiewicz fare like this and 1955's Guys and Dolls that helped transform all acting.

Brando actually addresses the crowd he is speaking to, his searing eyes picking out stragglers and cutting them down

The best Shakespeare that Hollywood has yet produced.
