Quinn pretty much steals the movie from under Brando’s nose, playing
his brother. Quinn walked off with the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor at
that years academy awards.
Obviously
with a script from Steinbeck (his only credited screenplay although he
had spend time working as an uncredited rewrite man during much of the forties) the dialogue is first
rate and some of the action sequences spectacular. Brando as usual
manages to inhabit the character he plays but still remains Brando and
despite some dodgy fake tanning application manages to make you believe
in Zapata.
