1. The story itself looks average now, but fortunately the rhythm of the film is quite good, the drama conflict is strong, the whole film is completed in one go, there is no cold spot.

2. Applause to all the actors. Needless to say, Malone, other supporting roles also performed very well, especially Lee J. Cobb, who plays the black boss Johnny Varley.

3. Marlon Brando must be praised separately for this film. Before he starred in the film, I only watched "The Godfather". Although his performance was light, I didn't have much sense of identity. This time, "The Wharf" completely let me know This Hollywood smashing star of the year. The personal charm is radiant, the unrestrained temperament is especially charming, and the real handsome is at home.

4. Why did I see Leslie Cheung's shadow on Brando? ? strangeness.

    This kind of film is actually more intriguing about the reaction of the people around us. The reason why we need heroes is because we are basically keyboard warriors. We hate and hate those numb people, but we really have no right to hate them. To hate them is to hate. Own.

    The film's alias must be "Proletarian Punishment." The dialogue and characterization are still good, but the lens language is not very impressive. The awakening and resistance of personal consciousness, but the concept that unions are equal to gangs is still too simple. Brando’s performance in Hollywood is really a school of its own.
