On the Waterfront—Jon Schuller
One of my personal all-time favorite films is On The Waterfront, starring Marlon Brando. An all-star cast includes
Karl Malden, Lee J. Cobb, Rod Steiger, (in her first movie)Eva Marie Saint and several familiar faces of great character players in the 1950’s. Directed by the then-controversial Elia Kazan and screenplayed by Budd Shulberg it tells the true story of a local New Jersey man Malcolm Johnson who ratted out the Mob controlling the New York/New Jersey docks.read more |
