A Kinder, Simpler Time Dept.: Your Movie Columnist

Nov. 21, 1957: “It was bound to happen. Marlon Brando and Stanley Kubrick, director, parted company. Brando may take on directorial job himself. The credits could then read: Written by, directed by and starred in ‘One-Eyed Jacks,’ or he may let Karl Malden direct. Karl’s making a fortune on this picture: on salary since Sept. 1. When I asked why Brando does anything he likes, I’m told he’s box office.”
