On the Waterfront (1954)

Really one of the greatest motion pictures ever made, and my favorite Brando performance by a mile-and-a-half. The ending is so powerful, so uplifting, so strong, that it seems like we are living the experience, not just watching it.

And, it delivers the finest spoken line in cinema history:

"You think you're God Almighty, but you know what you are? You're a cheap, lousy, dirty, stinkin' mug! And I'm glad what I done to you, ya hear that? I'm glad what I done!"

Sends chills up and down my spine whenever I hear it- but only from Marlon's mouth. Golden...
