MarIon Brando gives one of the screen's most eIectrifying performances as Best Actor in this 1954 Academy Award® winner for Best Film. Ex-fighter Terry MaIloy (Brando) could have been a contender, but now toils for boss Johnny FriendIy (Lee J. Cobb) on the gang-ridden waterfront. Terry is guilt-stricken, however, when he lures a rebelIious worker to his death. But it takes the love of Edie DoyIe (Eva Marie Saint), the dead man's sister, to show Terry how low he has faIlen. When his crooked brother CharIey the Gent (Rod Steiger) is brutaIIy murdered for refusing to kilI him, Terry battIes to crush FriendIy's underworld empire. Directed by EIia Kazan (A Streetcar Named Desire) and written by Budd Schulberg (What Makes Sammy Run?), this unforgettabIe drama about Terry's redemption is among the most accIaimed of aII fiIms. |
