Directed by: Delbert Mann
Starring: Ernest Borgnine, Betsy Blair, Augusta Ciolli, Esther Minciotti
Corrected entry: There is a scene in the living room with Marty sitting in an arm chair under a standard lamp. In every second shot his collar is done up, while in the others it is undone.
Corrected entry: There is a scene in the film where a young man is arguing with someone on the sidewalk. The young man is Dustin Hoffman.
Correction: Dustin Hoffman does NOT appear in any scene in this movie.
Continuity mistake: At the Stardust Ballroom, listen to the first song the dance band is playing on the soundtrack. It skips measures and at one point is hastily spliced to begin again so as to continue because more time is needed in the scene. The MGM DVD copy is incomplete because it is missing the scene in which Clara speaks with her parents after her evening with Marty. The scene is present on the CBS/Fox VHS.
Marty Pilletti: Tommy, Tommy, just let me get a couple of minutes, will you? Because I promised Mr. Terry that I would let him know by tomorrow. You and Virginia can fight anytime.
Trivia: At 91 minutes, "Marty" is the shortest film ever to win the Best Picture Academy Award.
