워터프론트 (On the Waterfront) - 엘리아 카잔 (1954)

***On the Waterfront(1954)(96. Jan, 16)

Marlon Brando, Eva Marie Saint, Karl Malden

Forceful, super charged melodrama about the docks of New Jersey--the workers, the bosses, the criminals, and their families. Briliantly acted by all with Brando a superb standout. Winner of many Oscars(8) including Best Film. Brando's shattering performance is among the finest ever recorded on film, and Steiger got his start to stardom here. The scene between them on an auto is superbly played and directed. Brando and Saint won Oscars.

(Dir:Elia Kazan, 108min)

 

Marlon Brando, one hack of an actor. do you remember his performance at "A Streetcar named Desire"? How about "God Father"? He was superb.

This movie also very superb. There was a tint of melodrama, but still it was a kind of social-participating movie. Well made.
