Trying to increase my knowledge of film, I've been watching some oldies. This is still a worthy film worth watching. First off, Brando is darn easy to look at. I'm amazed at how much soul he portrays in just his face. And this is a fine gangster flic to boot. Brando helps facilitate a guy getting knocked off, and he has remorse. He's part of a rough and tough day worker slave trade on the water front shipping docks of New Jersey, and just like today, wise guys are running the black market. Some of Kazan's scenes are artfully cinematic or vise a verse... Either way, even though it's an old film it's pretty to look at, and I mean that in a good way. If you appreciate b/w photography, you'll like the cinematographic elements. It has a Hollywood ending, and I may watch it again just to look at Brando. I give it a good to excellent rating, only because cinema has come so far since the old days. This film relies on good story, not great special effects. And I do prefer color. Oh well. Watch it.

One of Brando's most memorable movies. Worth seeing. Only bad point is Eva Saint who is bland and of no possible interest. She makes the movie really drag in the middle when Brando wastes a lot of time on her. How she got to be a movie star I will never know.
