Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
The Wild One is a 1953 film where Marlon Brando plays the leader of a wild motorcycle gang. It is considered a classic youth picture and one of Brando's most iconic roles. Rebel Without a Cause, The Blackboard Jungle, and A Streetcar Named Desire are all films from the same era and deal with issues of youth and rebellion, but they do not feature Brando in a motorcycle-centered role.
