Reviews

It is one of the most powerful American movies of the 50s, and few movies caused so much talk, excitement, and dissension -- largely because of Marlon Brando's performance as the inarticulate, instinctively alienated bum, Terry Malloy.

But sometimes great art, like Wagner's and Celine's, comes from people you wouldn't want to break bread with. But snub the art? Who'd want to miss Marlon Brando's performance?

On the Waterfront is strong, tough and cruelly violent, but it is also a film that should make theatre history for 1954. It will strike audiences with special impact because it is based on undisputed fact.
