by NoahOn The Waterfront has always been one of my all-time favorite movies; Top 10 in my book. The film has everything about life. And, if you ever needed one film to explain what acting is, Marlon Brando's performance as Terry Malloy is as good as it gets.Unfortunately, our real life movie these days is every bit as sad, and much more scary, made so by having a severely corrupt mentally ill loser as a president whose sickness, every minute of every day, threatens to bring the whole world crashing to the ground. In On The Waterfront, the story of Terry Malloy was just the story of one punch-damaged man and those in his immediate circle. The story of Donald Trump is the story of all of us because his story affects all of us. Hell, our society went a long way in creating, encouraging, and allowing people like him. Greed kills.The picture of Donald Trump above is a picture of a loser, a man ruined and ruled by his failings, his corruption, and his insecurities. Trump, however, unlike Malloy, is a loser by his own choice. He's forfeited any sympathy. In On The Waterfront, Terry Malloy ends up fighting corruption. Put Trump on trial and put him in the ring with Terry Malloy and let Malloy tear him apart. Let Malloy hear the cheers again.When a friend sent me this photo Sunday night and asked me to caption it, I immediately thought of On The Waterfront and Terry Malloy's words, and then used them to make tonight's memes. Although Malloy, unlike Trump, has a soul, his words apply.
