It is about shrimpers and and oilmen clash when an ambitious wildcatter begins constructing an off-shore oil rig. James Stewart and Joanne Dru give good performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. Anthony Mann did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the adventure and drama. See more 03/22/2015 a thriller that isn't so thrilling; a romance that isn't so romantic; a social drama that isn't too dramatic.

Production Dates: late September to mid-November 1952 Filmed in 1.37 to 1 aspect ratio Released in 1.85 to 1 widescreen aspect ratio The film marked Universal's first use of stereophonic sound, which at the time was presentable only in select theaters. Some contemporary reviewers complained that the sound, with its use of three speakers, was loud and distracting. Originally planned to be photographed in 3-D Most of the picture was shot in Morgan City, LA, and some scenes were shot in New Orleans and on an oil-drilling barge thirty miles out in the Gulf of Mexico While filming scenes on location in Louisiana, Dan Duryea slipped and fell from the roof of a tugboat (which appears throughout the film). He suffered a broken rib, contusion and bruises, but was able to continue filming after a day or two of rest The film is available as a standalone on VHS.

See more 01/12/2010 It was a decent story and different from any other movie I've ever scene. It was really interesting to see Jimmy Stewart act angry at a couple points. He usually plays a pretty easy-going guy so it was nice to see him pull that off. See more Read all reviews
