La Vie en Rose: Marlon Goes to Paris: After the run of Streetcar, and many hundreds of highly charged performances (and their attendant mini-dramas) an exhausted Marlon goes to The City of Light. (“After a long schlunk in Paris, I’ll find myself.”) There intrigues are multi-lingual, gossip-worthy, and world-class.(...) Fateful meeting of Marlon with noted French actor Christian Marquand and Roger Vadim, the latter a close friend of a young man from Massachussets, John F. Kennedy, who had recently been holiday- making in Provence. Shortly after their inaugural meeting, Vadim and Marquand invite the newly arrived American actor, Marlon, to live with them in their one-room studio apartment on rue Bassano, where Bardot and many other actors are frequent visitors. According to Vadim, 
“Brando and Marquand had an unconventional love affair that would span the decades, and fidelity to each other had nothing to do with it. I don’t think I ever saw a more compatible couple. Of course, Christian also served as Marlon’s pimp in future years when Marlon flew in from Hollywood. Christian told me that, ‘All I have to do is speak to any girl and bring Marlon that girl if he wanted her.’”

Marlon names his first son “Christian” in honor of his “lifelong lover”, Christian Marquand.
