Sinatra'd already been signed for "On the Waterfront" when producer Sam Spiegel learned he could get Brando, & fired Sinatra. So WI he hadn't found out? Or decided not to fire Sinatra, because they'd already started shooting, or something? How much difference would it make to the film? To Sinatra's career? Would it have a big effect on Hollywood?

I don't see the film doing as well critically (& even then, it would earn Oscar noms for Malden at least), but otherwise...
