Script: On the Waterfront

On the Waterfront was written by Budd Schulberg. The most famous bit of dialogue:

You don’t understand! I could’ve been a contender. I could’ve had class and been somebody. Real class. Instead of a bum, let’s face it, which is what I am.

Quote of the Day: David Gilmour

It is an example of what films can do, how they can slip past your defenses and really break your heart.
