"I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I could been somebody." The interviewer asked why the line is so memorable. It's the story of many lives.

One of Rod Steiger's most underrated films is The Illustrated Man.

I was diagnosed with autism at 39. That's what "I could have been a contender" means to me. Most of us have a moment of clarity at some point when we realize what was really holding us back all this time.

why people loved the "i coulda been a contender" line is anybody who struggled in life can put themselves in the characters position that if one thing had been diff they coulda been lifted up from the bottom of despair they had found themselves in,myself i consider on the waterfront one of the greatest movies ever made

Steiger was a damn good actor. Loved him too in PAWN BROKER as the original Gillespie in HEAT OF THE NIGHT.

Steiger, such a soulful dedicated actor. And great acting skill and artistry. Yes, a powerful script.

Truly Rod Steiger is a brilliant man. Just in this short clip discussing his own and a colleagues work, a huge amount of territory is covered, with incredible detail and substance and insight, all perfectly and clearly articulated, along with his own thoughts and feelings on his experience and life. What a wonderful gifted actor and teacher.

Rod Steiger was a great actor, he always seem very intense like he was going to blow up at any minute.

Steiger was a great actor...and that scene was so wonderfully done. Two brothers who love each other and one brother taking granted of the younger one for his selfish wants, but was not going to turn terry in to the mob. “It was you Charlie”
