Theatrical Trailer (HD)

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. Here, you’ll also 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 its lyrical John Huston narration and saggy blues to its top-drawer performances, waterfront sets and whimsical charm – is an atmospheric gem, one that has its world “spinning in greased grooves.”

Cannery Row is available in HD on iTunes . Strangely the photo being used is of Nick Nolte and Raquel Welsh ( who was fired from the film) and replaced by

Debra Winger.

Just remember that the HD digital on iTunes will be from an older master and not the one that will be used for this WA Blu-ray release.

I know. It's just funny to see a photo of Raquel Welsh from the film.

"NEW 2020 1080p master from 4K scan of original camera negative"

Too bad the preview doesn't make me want to buy the blu-ray. Everything seems so synthetic, from the indoor set trying to look outdoor, to the matted in sky and building tops, to the performances. Did they re-write the part for Debra Winger? How could 41 y/o Raquel have played this doe-eyed-innocent-thing?

It's a fun movie, but the pacing is a bit off. I always enjoy Nick Nolte (a criminally underrated actor, imo), and my eyes don't tire ogling a very attractive Winger. But I especially

Spoiler: a bit of a spoiler

enjoy the whole frogs business
