I think it is too bad, both of them were not in any other films together, after "On the Waterfront" (1954). They both had terrific chemistry in "On the Waterfront" in my opinion.
That is the general opinion among critics. She admired him, and they became friends while the film was being shot. She said he was protective of her. After the film, they lost touch with one another.
She was in Superman Returns (2006) as Martha Kent and there was footage of Marlon as Jor-El in Superman II (Richard Donner Cut) for Superman Returns. He passed away in 2004.
She was 9 months pregnant with her first child when she won an Oscar for her performance in this film. She famously said “I may have the baby right here!” and two days later, her son Darrell was born.
I disagree, Edie was. She represented kindness and altruism. In this scene Terry hasn’t transformed yet. What’s attractive about somebody with no kindness?
@@CliffTooth she also represented a kind of innocence and quiet beauty and Terry was realizing that is what was special about her, she wasn't one of the waterfront girls.
It's amazing. I start choking up as soon as he starts talking. And how subtle and charming he is. "He bought a piece of you?" "Yes." A nod and shrug do all the heavy-lifting.
My all time favorite movie. Filmed in Hoboken, NJ for authenticity in late'53, early '54. I watched this on TV in when it ran in the 60's and 70's. Check out the whole movie. Kayo Dugan was hysterical.
He did the makeup himself--all of it. Something he learned from Stella Adler is that actors must learn how to do their own makeup. He actually used a needle and thread.
Marlon Brando is the greatest actor because of his unmatched acting range. From 1950-60 he played a paraplegic in THE MEN, Stanley Kowalski in A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE, a Mexican revolutionary in VIVA ZAPATA, Mark Anthony, a Hell's Angel in THE WILD ONE. Terry Malloy in ON THE WATERFRONT, Napoleon in DESIREE, sang and danced in GUYS AND DOLLS, a Japanese man in TEAHOUSE OF THE AUGUST MOON, a contrite nazi in YOUNG LIONS then directed ONE EYED JACKS.
This movie grows in stature with each passing year. Pure movie-making genius from beginning to end. Elia Kazan, Karl Malden and Marlon Brando were one hell of a team.
@@hyena131 i will break it down for the ones who are slow to catch on! The CHARACTER Brando played in the movie was an ex prize fighter. That is why MAKE UP was used to show scaring around his eyes! If you bothered to watch the movie-you would know this!
Yeh On the water font has to be the best performance ever by a cast particularly the late great Brando. Such a brilliant talent thet will never be placed.
Hollywood will never remake that movie. Even in their zeal to remake classic movies, it's really understood that Brando's performance is beyond anything even the best actor could do. He absolutely nails it in every scene.
I like how they scar him up a bit in this so he's not too pretty. He's believable as a washed-up fighter. The two of them somehow just work together, opposite as they seem. Magical.
In a way he's just a dumb mug, living almost like an animal, but Edie calls forth something in him, and it's sort of agonizing, but it's also a relief because he DOES have a fully-formed conscience and he is able to unburden to her (I love the scene where he finally tells her about Joey, and you can see, but not hear her reaction, then there is this incredible reaction shot of Father Barry, and we can read his mind: "By God, he finally did it!" FInally, some decency on the waterfront.
He did his makeup himself. Something he learned from Stella Adler is that actors must learn how to do their own makeup. He actually used a needle and thread for his eyebrows in this film. He always did his own makeup, in fact, even for television.
She was coming from a place of ideal compassion and reasoning because she's been protected and sheltered all her life. Terry's been knocked around and on his own since he was born, he had no choice but to to become the aggressor in order to survive the abusive environments he was forced to live in.
Yes it was! She accidentally dropped it. The director didn't yell cut. Instead he just let it play out. It was complete improve and purely instinctual acting on Brandon's part. Pure genius!!!
Marlon Brando was a natural, and as Anthony Hopkins once said; he (Brando) is always watchable, but, again, what about Eve Marie Saint? I love this movie. Thank you for posting.
When he says, "Some home," you know the whole history of that "home." When he says his father died, then never mind how, "you know exactly how." When he slides his chair closer to the table, you know there's something on the floor hindering the chair's movement. When he stands up to play music, you can see the vulnerability and thought processes vividly, like no other actor before or after him.
Pat Hingle ('Hang 'Em High,' 'Sudden Impact,' 'Batman,' 'Maximum Overdrive,' Col. Parker in the 'Elvis' TV movie from 1979) in his uncredited film debut as the bartender!
Woah! Never noticed that was him. He's one of those actor that's done so many awesome movies but never gets the respect he deserves. Him and Karl Malden for that matter.
That's your opinion. She is lovely. Had she been some sex bomb like Taylor or Monroe. This wouldnt have worked. Try to get over your obsession with looks for 5 minutes and understand that.
"What is it with this Father Berry? What's his racket?" 😄 I have this on DVD somewhere and I can't find it! I really want to watch it again for about the 50th time.
Streetcar named Desire had superior story and acting. And Marlon was an unbelievable sharpened veteran on the Broadway version. Almost any movie ieven with Brando in it will pale in comparison to Streetcar named Desire.

It's so effortless for Brando. You really had to grow up in that generation to understand just how far ahead of his time he really was.
Remember guys on a first date. If a girl says something you disagree with, respond with
"Boy what a fruitcake you are!" - best line ever.
I know right 😂
I remember watching this in class and everyone chuckling at this line.
If you have his looks you can get away with it.
In recently used it !!!
She didn’t get it
I used it and she shoved a fruitcake into my face.
How does Brando do this so effortlessly?? He’s so damn natural in this conversation I feel like I’m intruding on a private moment.
That's y he's the best actor out there
Best method actor ever
@@rc6147 It could be easy if you took the right direction for it.
Because he's Brando!
I think part of that feeling is the close up photography. Brings an intimacy to it. Plus the amazing acting from both.

I love it when they dance in the next scene. Theres just something so magic about these classic films. Everything was always perfect
A young man at probably his last chance in life looking at a girl who can save him, and he knows it.

Right? The emotion put into the performance is phenomenal.

Eva Marie Saint is very beautiful and quite wonderful in this.
She used to do Parachute jumping for fun.
She's pushing her 100s and still looks good for her age.
She certainly is.
She was 9 months pregnant with her first child when she won an Oscar for her performance in this film. She famously said “I may have the baby right here!” and two days later, her son Darrell was born.
Really? I never got her!! She's like Diet-Janet-Leigh!!
Beautiful pair, the both of them.
Marlon Brando is so attractive and appealing in this.
Even Bette Davis said he was "just great" in this.
He just oozes raw sex appeal, just wonderful!!!!!😎❤

It's likely shaved to resemble a scar. The character is supposed to be a former boxer.

@@tenbenny Absolutely, the script is key to it all.
Best date scene ever. Thanks, criterion.
yes-the cut up eye lids and scars around the eyes are make up.
he is an ex prize fighter and those are scars from his fights.

Brando was never a prize fighter, so stop lying.

Such attention to detail. Love this flick.
Yes. I thought he didnt look quite as handsome as he did in Streetcar. Still good looking. Hard to "ugly" him up at that time in his career
Man I just realized Brando sorta sounds like Mike Tyson
I love both these actors and this great movie! Eva Marie Saint won the Oscar and it was her first movie! Marlon won too...so real...
EMS was 99 in July❤️👍🎩
“Hey, you wanna hear my philosophy of life? Do it to him before he does it to you” 😂 I love this.
Now, that lady is wife material. Classic film!
thanks for sharing.
Fun fact: The server/bartender is Gordon from Batman films with Michael Keaton
I think Eva Marie Saint was just as good as Marlon Brando. She is so natural here and ahead of her time.
Fruitcake 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ ugh I love him
Dating advice #1: don't bring up the subject of your date's recently murdered brother while you're dining with her
"Shouldn't everybody care about anybody else? I mean, isn't everybody a part of everybody else."
This is one of my favorites. Marlon Brando's best role & the first movie for Eve Marie Saint.
I think it was Eva's best role. She peaked young IMHO.
Her best role too.

Probably one of the best scenes of film in all time. #deep
I like how they scar him up a bit in this so he's not too pretty. He's believable as a washed-up fighter. The two of them somehow just work together, opposite as they seem. Magical.
Yeah, he would have been way too distractingly beautiful without the scars and the weird eye makeup/taping the upper lid down
In a way he's just a dumb mug, living almost like an animal, but Edie calls forth something in him, and it's sort of agonizing, but it's also a relief because he DOES have a fully-formed conscience and he is able to unburden to her (I love the scene where he finally tells her about Joey, and you can see, but not hear her reaction, then there is this incredible reaction shot of Father Barry, and we can read his mind: "By God, he finally did it!"

I'm re-reading a HUGE bio of him by Peter Manso. Fascinating.
He's got the physique to carry it off as an ex-fighter.
Edie just never understood what you need to do to survive in this world. You gotta do it to Him before he does it to you!
He told the truth it's all about survival in this world dog eat dog world
She was coming from a place of ideal compassion and reasoning because she's been protected and sheltered all her life. Terry's been knocked around and on his own since he was born, he had no choice but to to become the aggressor in order to survive the abusive environments he was forced to live in.
Even in the end when he's getting battered she shows love and helps him walk.
Obviously (imesho) the best scene in Waterfront. The only film I fall in love w/ Eva Marie in, much like MM in Misfits.
Everybody's got a Racket! Lol...
She downed that shot better then he did.
White girls are something else with alcohol 😂
Wonder if she took a real shot for this scene?
She takes that shot like a champ.
+magetaaaaaa Good God, she does.
Prolly water Lol
One of the best movies ever made. I love an earlier scene where Marlons character has her glove. I've often wondered if that was a bit of improv
Yes it was! She accidentally dropped it. The director didn't yell cut. Instead he just let it play out. It was complete improve and purely instinctual acting on Brandon's part. Pure genius!!!
It was indeed. I only noticed it in my third viewing and it was delightful. These scenes between Brando and Saint are all pure gold.
They say it was.
Marlon Brando was a natural, and as Anthony Hopkins once said; he (Brando) is always watchable, but, again, what about Eve Marie Saint? I love this movie. Thank you for posting.
RIP Marlon Brando (April 3, 1924 - July 1, 2004), aged 80
You will be remembered as a legend.
When she touches his cheek., that does something to him... He has never experienced kindneee and gentleness.
“ what d’ you really care… Am I right?”
Never gonna be anything like this again.
i have watched this film way too many times now (8 times in the past two days)
Edit: School
Incredibly touching scene~ so much emotion at the end!
The best
what a scene 🥰

Can you upload the hole scene? You are missing the best part of it, IMO. Thank you
It’s so natural.
CUT ON THE BEST MOMENT !!!
Edie: "You would if you could."
Why do Brando's eyes look a bit different here?
Makeup
I'm trying to think of any actors today who come close to him - Johnny Depp not even close . . .

The bartender would later move to Gotham City and become the commissioner of police.
She was a dream 👱♀️ ...the most memorable dream 🥰

great how the character is REAL////Honest...so few ppl are.....
“If there is a better performance by a man in the history of film in America, I don't know what it is,” Elia Kazan said of Brando's performance.
Did Brando order "two grimin hymins and two cachaisers"
What a perfect woman.

It seems he settled down with this role because he was taking on more mature roles. I don’t know I may be wrong.
