Marlon Brando gives one of the screen’s most electrifying performances as Best Actor in this 1954 Academy Award® winner for Best Film. Ex-fighter Terry Malloy could have been a contender but now toils for boss Johnny Friendly on the gang-ridden waterfront. Terry is guilt-stricken, however, when he lures a rebellious worker to his death. But it takes the love of Edie Doyle, the dead man’s sister, to show Terry how low he has fallen. When his crooked brother Charley the Gent is brutally murdered for refusing to kill him, Terry battles to crush Friendly’s underworld empire.

Nominated for 12 Oscars and winning eight, including Best Actor for Brando and Directing for Kazan.
