THE CAINE MUTINY (1954)

A compelling sea-faring adventure and courtroom procedural, The Caine Mutiny tells the story of the troubled – and hated – Captain Queeg, whose conduct at the helm of the U.S.S. Caine drives his men to the edge of mutiny and lands him in court martial proceedings. Humphrey Bogart is excellent as the tormented Queeg, as is Van Johnson as first officer Maryk, who is drawn into the breach when the S.S. Caine is in danger of sinking and a fatally compromised Queeg is unable to act at a crucial moment.

The sterling cast includes: Humphrey Bogart, Jose Ferrer, Van Johnson, Robert Francis, Lee Marvin, E.G. Marshall, Claude Akins, and Fred MacMurray.

THE CAINE MUTINY was nominated for the Best Picture award.

Director, Edward Dmytryk, heated up the screen with this intense drama.
