4K Restoration!
Introduction/Grover Crisp
The Gulf port of Alamo Bay is home to a fleet of Texas-born shrimpers. A downhearted Vietnam vet, Shang (Ed Harris) is one such fisherman, barely holding onto his boat. When a recently arrived community of Vietnamese refugees takes to the same waters, the old-boy fishermen, Shang included, start a feud that nets nothing but hatred. Alice Arlen (Silkwood) anchors her ripped-from-the headlines script about racial turmoil with a love affair between sultry Amy Madigan and real-life husband Harris. Never satisfied with the color palette, cinematographer Curtis Clark supervised the digital transfer, finally finding the hues he yearned for.

• Written by Alice Arlen. Photographed by Curtis Clark. With Ed Harris, Amy Madigan, Ho Nguyen, Donald Moffat. (98 mins, Color, 4K DCP, From Sony Pictures)
