The Marlon Brando classic returns to the big screen
“The finest thing ever done by an American film actor” was how director Elia Kazan characterized the performance of Marlon Brando in On the Waterfront.
And in a special two-day event, you can re-experience the movie that made Brando a household name on the big screen.
Terry Malloy (Brando) dreams about being a prize fighter, while tending to his pigeons and running errands at the docks for Johnny Friendly (Lee Cobb), the corrupt boss of the dockers’ union. Father Barry (Karl Malden) tries to force him to provide information for the courts that will smash the dock racketeers.
This beloved classic will be accompanied by special commentary from Turner Classic Movies hosts Robert Osborne or Ben Mankiewicz, who will provide insight, background and more, making this film come alive.
