On the Waterfront (Film Classics) by Budd Schulberg

Since its release in 1954, when it scooped 8 Academy Awards, On the Waterfront has established itself as a classic American film and garnered a strong cult following. Both distinctions are largely attributable to Marlon Brando's legendary performance as Terry Malloy, the young docker and ex-fighter who, following the murder of his brother Charley, resolves to break the corrupt waterfront dominion of gang boss Johnny Friendly.
Budd Schulberg is famous as the author of the show-biz novel, What Makes Sammy Run? He won the Oscar for his screenplay for On the Waterfront. He also wrote A Face in the Crowd and Wind Across the Everglades for the screen.
