This pairing brought to you by Elia Kazan and Marlon Brando:
Director: Elia Kazan
Written by Budd Schulberg Starring: Marlon Brando, Karl Malden, Lee. J. Cobb Genre: Crime, Drama, Thriller
Does not appear on 2012's Sight and Sound Polls #8 on 1998's AFI Top 100
Dockworker Terry Malloy (Marlon Brando) had been an up-and-coming boxer until powerful local mob boss Johnny Friendly (Lee J. Cobb) persuaded him to throw a fight. When a longshoreman is murdered before he can testify about Friendly's control of the Hoboken waterfront, Terry teams up with the dead man's sister Edie (Eva Marie Saint) and the streetwise priest Father Barry (Karl Malden) to testify himself, against the advice of Friendly's lawyer, Terry's older brother Charley (Rod Steiger).
Trivia: In his biography of Elia Kazan, Richard Schickel describes how Kazan used a ploy to entice Marlon Brando to do the movie. He had Karl Malden direct a scene from the film with an up-and-coming fellow actor from the Actors Studio playing the Terry Malloy lead role. They figured the competitive Brando would not be eager to see such a major role handed to some new screen heartthrob. The ploy worked, especially since the competition had come in the form of a guy named Paul Newman.
Director: Elia Kazan Written by Oscar Saul, based on the play by Tennessee Williams Starring: Vivien Leigh, Marlon Brando, Kim Hunter, Karl Halden Genre: Drama
Does not appear on 2012's Sight and Sound Polls #45 on 1998's AFI Top 100
Based on the play by Tennessee Williams, this renowned drama follows troubled former schoolteacher Blanche DuBois (Vivien Leigh) as she leaves small-town Mississippi and moves in with her sister, Stella Kowalski (Kim Hunter), and her husband, Stanley (Marlon Brando), in New Orleans. Blanche's flirtatious Southern-belle presence causes problems for Stella and Stanley, who already have a volatile relationship, leading to even greater conflict in the Kowalski household.
Trivia: As the film progresses, the set of the Kowalski apartment actually gets smaller to heighten the suggestion of Blanche's increasing claustrophobia.
My Votes:
On the Waterfront: Keep, although that poster makes Brando look like Marge after taking a blast from Homer's makeup shotgun. Streetcar Named Desire: Keep, one of the better play-to-movie adaptations and there are few that I'd want otherwise.

We'll see. Lots of prep going on for October videos you should like. Or maybe hate. Whatever, you'll have an opinion. |

This is staying up for a bit, but I just wanted to point out I missed an excellent opportunity to center the pairing on communism with On the Waterfront vs High Noon.  |

Gotta brag about Canadian supremacy. Doubt it. I'm not a review channel. That said, an idea for a Nolan video did hit me this morning. I'll have to do a bit of research to see if the video would even be worth doing, but maybe. |

Here are everyone's nominees from last round. You have 36 hrs from this post to add a third nominee, amend your existing nominees, any combination to lead to 3 total nominees. Please rank or re-rank your nominees for future rounds. Otherwise, if we only have 2 openings next time, I will only take your first two. |
