Plots(1)
Valentine "Snakeskin" Xavier (Brando) is a handsome drifter with a guitar and a past. Taking a job as a store clerk in Two Rivers, Mississippi, his strong and silent demeanor attracts not only the local party girl (Woodward), but also the shopkeeper's exotic wife (Magnani). Soon, this explosive love triangle will ignite a powder keg of fury that could rock this small town to its very core. (official distributor synopsis)

A young Brando is not something I enjoy. I also don’t enjoy a mature Magnani, given that she was one of those Italian actresses of whom Loren was the calmest and most serene. I prefer Williams in a more modern adaptation (The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond) and Brando older (even On the Waterfront was too much).
