on the waterfront final scene

One of the great movies of the great Marlon Brando. This final scene shows us how a single man, a loser, may wins over the gang sistem.

Definitely one of the best endings ever. When I first saw Waterfront I realized how much of my life I'd wasted watching sh*tty movies. It was electrifying, to say the least.

Perhaps the best ending I've seen in a film.

Widely considered the greatest actor of all time, Marlon Brando took the world by storm. His raging stillness, graceful masculinity and staggering sex appeal electrified audiences and critics alike.

With eight Academy Award nominations and two wins, his body of work spanned over half of a century, inspiring almost every great actor that came after him including Jack Nicholson, Al Pacino and Sean Penn.

I remember being so scared that he was going to pass out. D:  But I was super happy when he didn't.

And then he went straight to the hospital....

@detectmendacity No I think the very fact that it was filmed in Hoboken in the winter makes it timeless and certainly more realistic than most movies. Brando found that on some days the 'blood' froze on his face.

@slimturnpike Reminds me of a younger friend who's favorite movie is Raging Bull. When he checked out OTW because of the Jake Lamotta recital he said it was too slow and boring. Part of the difference is that Scorsese had to make the 40s and 50s exciting for an 80s audience and he used an operatic style combined with tabloid sensationalism and slow mo surrealism.

@3eemy The director Elia Kazan claimed he had no doubt Johnny Friendly would come back some day. In reality that is just what happened. The breakaway members failed to solidify the ranks of their new union and had to go back to the ILA and pay back dues. Time Magazine commented that for a happy ending the workers could go to the movies. A few years later there was a dock strike and Brando was photographed crossing the picket line to board a liner to Europe. Maybe he was terrified of flying.
