Quite simply a classic
Gripping, powerful drama of corrupt unions for dock workers and how one man Terry Malloy (Marlon Brando) fights back.This movie is a definite must-see. The story is pretty simple and has been done before but the script is superb and all the actors are at the height of their powers. Brando is unbelievable as Malloy–he portrays his innocence and hurt so easily–I actually started to get a lump in my throat when he comes to grips about the corruption. Rod Steiger is great in a small role as his brother. The taxicab sequence between him and Brando has become a legend–rightfully. Lee J. Cobb is frightening as the leader of it all. Eva Marie Saint (in her first theatrical role) is gorgeous and just great as a woman who falls in love with Brando. The scenes between them are incredible. There’s also superb direction by Elia Kazan–this is possibly his best work. The only debit here is Karl Malden as the priest–he overplays it way too much and got on more nerves. But that’s about it.
This movie is one of those rare instances where everything clicked together perfectly. A HUGE hit in its day. Don’t miss this one!
