Does Marlon ♥ Dawn???

______________________________________________________________________________________



What this image lacks in clarity is offset

by the profundity of the answer

to a simple question asked

by the dancing girl  

(Peggy Maley)





Mildred: Hey Johnny, what are you rebelling against?
Johnny: Whadda you got?

THE WILD ONE (1953) was written by John Paxton
and based on a story by Frank Rooney. 

What those  two writers lack in fame is offset by the
immortality bestowed upon the film by its star:

Johnny was portrayed by Marlon Brando.

Four of the five hyperlinks above connect you to
imdb.com but the first one is a youTube video of
the immortal quote from the film.

But the title of this page–Does Marlon ♥ Dawn???
is admittedly cryptic and possibly clever or cute.

However, the fact is...the image below is a page from
a novel published in 1948.

The next Dawn Powell page is here.





Feel free to quote the GoodFather of Math but better minds than his have essentially said
the same damn thing:     Without thievery, there is no genius.

Hey! Whaddaya know?
The name of this website (and its predecessor–the GodFather of Math) is indebted to
another cinematic character immortalized by Marlon Brando.
