Review of Edge of the City (1957) by Ashley H — 15 Sep 2012
Edge of the City is an exceptional film. It is about two New York City longshoremen Axel Nordmann, an Army deserter and Tommy Tyler, an easy-going freight car loader whose growing friendship is threatened by Charles Malik, a notably repellent punk.
John Cassavetes and Sidney Poitier give amazing performances. The screenplay is well written. Martin Ritt did a great job directing this movie. I enjoyed watching this motion picture because of the drama.
Edge of the City is a must see.
