One Great Movie to Last a Life-time!

A good movie that withstood the test of time. Moving and entertaining fare from Elia Kazan. Brando was brilliant and newcomer Eva Marie Saint lends her mesmerizing beauty to the black and white screen.

The movie tells the dark side of the going-ons at the waterfront and a brave priest (Karl Malden) who managed to bring back the souls of the workers to fight for their rights against the hoods that controlled the waterfront. Edward G. Robinson, Lee J. Cobb and Rod Steiger were most menacing in their roles as the hoodlums.

Good movie to see again and again!
