German synchronous version

The former boxer Terry (Marlon Brando) has become a dock worker in the port of New York. His brother Charley (Rod Steiger) is active as a lawyer for the union, who is ruled by Johnny Friendly (Lee J. Cobb) and is the order of the day in corruption. If you get a work, it will take place under poor conditions. And if you stand against the union, you risk your life. When Terry is ignored in the murder of a young worker, he gets into a conflict of conscience ...

8 (out of 12) Oscars, among others, in the categories "Best Film", "Best Director", "Best Dreier", "Best leading actor" Marlon Brand

"For the first time a film director and therefore brutal picture of the Practices from the port workers' union […] The film avoids the usual simplifications and […] in a more subtle way that faith and decency can sometimes overcome poverty and ignorance. ” (Der Spiegel)

"The dramatic film, which was showered with Oscars [...], made school in the cinema of realism. Kazan relatives great care in milieu and atmosphere, led his actors to gripping performance and did not shy away from a strong social pathos." (Lexicon of international film)
