Review of On the Waterfront

My first viewing of this masterpiece. Acted to perfection by every damn cast member. From the second the film started I was hooked, fully engrossed in the story. Marlon Brando is amazing as Terry Malloy, the former boxer, determined to put an end to the bullying and murder at the waterfront and along the way falls in love with Eide (brilliantly portrayed by Eva Marie Saint), a young woman whose brother was killed by the ruthless Johnny Friendly (Lee J. Cobb). The story is absolutely enthralling.
Incredible.

5/5
