Cannery Row (1982)
You don't have to be crazy to live here...but it helps.
Starring Nick Nolte, Debra Winger, Audra Lindley
Directed by David S. Ward
A depressed section of Monterey, California is the backdrop for an offbeat romantic comedy about a pair of mismatched lovers. Doc is a lonely marine biologist and former baseball star. Suzy is a scrappy, abrasive drifter who can't even succeed as a prostitute. Add Cannery Row's band of resident drunken derelicts to the mix and fireworks result, though not the romantic kind.
