Cannery Row

The canneries stand empty now that the sardines have abandoned the waters, but life continues on the Row. Here you'll find Doc (Nick Nolte), a marine biologist and community mentor; Suzy (Debra Winger), a good-hearted newcomer gone astray; and Mack, Hazel and all the boys working hard at not working. And here you'll find the love of a man for a woman, of a writer for a place and of life for more life. Based on works by John Steinbeck and written for the screen and directed by The Sting's David S. Ward, Cannery Row - from it's lyrical John Huston narration and it's saggy blues to it's top-drawer performances, waterfront sets and whimsical charm - is an atmospheric gem, one that has it's world "spinning in greased grooves."
