On the Waterfront

I didn't know what to expected from this movie. I'd seen very little of Marlon Brando with the exception of the Godfather. Yes he was The Godfather but overall had a very small role. So On the Waterfront was really my first chance to see him.

His character of Terry Malloy was incredile. Terry is just starting work on the waterfront in the 'union' when he asked get a fellow worker onto the roof. A few moment the falls to his death. People start asking questions including the dead man's sister. While trying to get Terry to tell her the truth about that night they fell in love. Which makes it even harder for Terry to hide what he knows.

The cast, the acting all amazing. Brando was true greatness.

10/10
