This saturday's man Movie is the Caine Mutiny (1954), starring Humphrey Bogart as Captain Queeg. I chose it in part because I like Bogey, and in part because Queeg is a dead ringer for a supervisor that I currently work under.
Yep. My boss would be the sort to obsess over a quart of strawberries, too.
Climactic typhoon scene.
And in the end, Queeg comes apart.
Blaming everyone beneath him. yep--I definitely know someone like that. But Bogey was always way cooler.
He should have won the Oscar for the
