This movie came out when I was a teenager, & to this day I've never seen it. Interesting that the death of the director now plays into the #MeToo movement. The left eats its own.

It is a boring movie. And unless a person likes Brando, his voice is very soon annoying.

Rochelle Rochelle was much better than this, what did you say. Emmanuelle?

I saw it on the recommendation of a good female friend who adored Marlon Brando (as I did and still do in many ways). I don't remember it being pornographic but then it was the 70s and we were a lot more liberal in those days. When I saw Annie Hall again several months ago in Manhattan, several of the female snowflakes walked out on that hilarious and seriously pointed film. We keep waxing and waning between puritanical and licentious in America in a degree I can no longer understand.

Maria Schneider was hot. Didn’t care much for Brando or the butter scene.

I was not quite a teenager. I’ve never seen it either.
I do remember the clip from the oscars and how it was presented as such a serious work. It was Brando chasing her up a set of stairs.

A decade ago, Larry Flynt was reduced to applying to Washington for a federal bailout for the "adult entertainment industry": like the banks and auto-makers, it was supposed to be too big to fail, but then came the massive downturn, which is one thing you don't want to see in an "adult" film.I love Mark Steyn.

I saw it in NYC in a theatre reminiscent of that little theatre in Werewolf in London where all David (werewolf) was talking to Jack (his dead friend) and the porno movie is playing in the background.
I saw the marquee while out on a Saturday off and thought ‘Oh, I want to see Brando in an actual movie in a theatre’! and realized few min into it the theatre was mostly empty but for a few creepy looking guys and I was pretty uncomfortable. It was daytime still though, so I was not as afraid if it were dark. NYC in the 70s in the dark was pretty scary.
I remember 2 things about it:
1. Brando looked disappointingly old and fat. The poster for it was a joke.
2. It was a lousy, forgettable movie.

Of course, back in the real world, a fifty-year-old friendless rooming-house manager would not be Marlon Brando but a dingy schlub, and surely of doubtful appeal to a free-spirited nineteen-year-old Parisienne such as Maria Schneider. But that's just the way it is in movies, isn't it? Thus, Miss Schneider spends a lot of the non-sex scenes just standing around naked, while Marlon's one nude scene was cut because, as he recounted in his autobiography, the apartment was very cold and "my body went into full retreat" - ie, in significant aspects, he was reduced to a bit part. And another!

I saw it but don't remember much about it so that means it was a complete stupid boorish movie,just like Clockwork orange, another stupid waste of time movie..
I am so out of movies and can proudly list the number of movies I have never seen, or will ever see...
