ALAMO DRAFTHOUSE & LEVI’S PRESENT 2010 ROLLING ROADSHOW
as part of Hoboken's Movies Under the Stars series will present
On the Waterfront at Pier A Park at 8:15pm
(raindate Sun. Aug. 22, 2010 at 8:15pm)
Rolling Roadshow is a nationwide tour of free outdoor 35mm screening experiences (on a huge 40 ft. screen) pairing everyone’s favorite films with the famous locations where they were shot or set. This year, the Alamo Drafthouse and the Levi’s® brand have partnered to champion some of cinema’s most celebrated workers. “We Are All Workers” is the underlying theme of this year’s Rolling Roadshow during the month of August.
ON THE WATERFRONT is a social commentary film, bringing to light the corruption, crime and immorality on the New Jersey docks. It’s one of the most alarming and politically revolutionary films of the 1950s to come out of Hollywood. It’s also one of the best made, from director Kazan and screenwriter Budd Schulberg to the performances of Brando in the lead and Karl Malden, Rod Steiger, and the ever-gorgeous ingénue Eva Marie Saint (in her feature film debut). Winner of eight Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Writing, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Cinematography.
The single greatest actor in American film history, Marlon Brando, offers up one of his most delightfully tormented roles as ex-boxer Terry Malloy. Brando is at the height of his game here, offering up a naturalistic style of acting in an emotive and brutal performance.
