Terry Malloy (Marlon Brando, The Godfather) is an ordinary dockworker just trying to keep his head down and get paid. Like all of his fellow dockworkers, he takes orders from mob boss Johnny Friendly (Lee J. Cobb, 12 Angry Men), the stern ruler of the waterfront. Terry used to be a fighter, but his career dissolved after his brother Charley (Rod Steiger, In the Heat of the Night)—one of Friendly's close associates—asked him to take a dive. Terry may be a bit unhappy with the way his life has gone, but he wouldn't dream of actually rebelling or protesting. As far as he and nearly everyone else are concerned, only a rat would fight the system.
Alas, when Friendly's cruel leadership causes bodies to start piling up, the denizens of the waterfront grow increasingly restless. The infuriated Father Barry (Karl Malden, Pollyanna) begins urging local citizens to step forward and say something, but most are terrified of what the consequences might be. However, when things turn particularly bleak, Terry begins to reconsider his loyalties. Is there any hope of ending Friendly's tyrannical reign?
