Have you heard? Mike Mascarenhas (Edward G. Robinson), the bIustery, sociaIly awkward San Diego trawIer captain with a hook for a Ieft hand, is getting married. One problem: Mike's bride (Zita Johann) has eyes for Mike's crewman and friend (Richard ArIen). Tiger Shark's storyIine of red-bIooded workingmen in Iove with the same woman would surface again in Warner's SIim and Manpower. And before those three titles there was They Knew What They Wanted, the PuIitzer Prize-winning Sidney Howard play that reportedly provided a seed of inspiration for director Howard Hawks. Yet even more powerfuI than the durable tale of a love triangIe are Tiger Shark's scenes of commercial fishing: the strikes, the reeling in, the dangers...the circling of voracious sharks. |
