dir. Elia KazanA tale of violence and corruption, On The Waterfront is famous as a showcase of the talents of actor Marlon Brando. Brando won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his portrayal of Terry Malloy, a prizefighter turned dockworker caught in a web of crime and deceit. His performance popularized “method acting” and proved to be a definitive display of the power of great screen acting. The film was a hit at the box office and won a total of eight Academy Awards, including Best Supporting Actress for Eva Marie Saint in her feature film debut.
