"On the Waterfront" Brings to Mind "Mrs. Dalloway"

I was recently re-watching, after several decades, the film "On the Waterfront" and at one point it brought to mind Virginia Woolf's novel "Mrs. Dalloway."

"On the Waterfront," directed by Elia Kazan, staring Marlon Brando and introducing Eva Marie Saint, was released in 1954. Considered a classic, it's about union violence and corruption on the New York waterfront.
