The Worthy Boys take a deep dive into the 1954 classic "On The Waterfront". The 8-time Academy Award-winning film features Marlon Brando's iconic performance as a conflicted gang member and his moral struggle to be something more in his life than a "bum". Many praise this as Brando’s greatest performance but what makes the actor so great and why do people think it’s his best work?

We also discuss the importance of aspect ratio to a film and how that impacts the film’s overall tone and textural feeling. "On The Waterfront" is also considered an allegorical piece for director Elia Kazan and his own conflicts speaking on trial during the Red Scare in 1950s Hollywood.
