An indictment of the close relationship between the ILA, organized crime, and the Hudson County Democratic machine. One of my favorite movies, and I am looking at my Italian poster of this film as I type this.

....I even liked the Contender scene when DeNiro did it in “Raging Bull”
.....to me the most interesting scene in the movie was Mauldin’s speech in the ship’s hold...I believe it portrayed the roots of the whole “activist priest” movement.

Not as well known as Waterfront, but Schulberg also wrote “A Face in the Crowd.” A great little film with Andy Griffith as a charismatic but untrustworthy rascal from Arkansas (sounds familiar, yes?). Patricia Neal, Walter Matthau, Anthony Franciosa and young Lee Remick co-star.
Here’s one of my favorite clips - Vitajex!

When you are 95 no matter what you die of it is natural causes. You could get hit by a truck, its natural causes. If you was younger you would have got out the way.

Someone here once said that ‘A Face in the Crowd’ foretold Bill Clinton’s career.
