Lying for a living

In the shadow of Marlon Brando's passing, I'm reminded of a lengthy Rolling Stone interview from April, 2002.

I ask him why he's so phobic about interviews.

"Because once I do one, they all come," he says with a sigh. "It's like sticking your toe in the Amazon thinking that it won't attract piranhas. I'd rather they just portray me as a fat slob and a hoot, and just leave it at that."
