Product Description:
An old cuban fishermans dry spell is broken when he hooks a gigantic fish that drags him out to sea. Based on ernest hemingways story. Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 02/08/2005 Starring: Spencer Tracy Run time: 86 minutes Rating: Nr

Amazon.com:
The classic Ernest Hemingway novel about man battling nature and the demons within himself is adapted admirably in this 1958 film starring the legendary Spencer Tracy. Playing the fisherman who goes on an intense and futile quest as he contemplates his own nature, Tracy turns in a spellbinding performance of understated power. He plays an itinerant Cuban fisherman whose luck at catching his prey has been poor of late, until he becomes embroiled in an intense pursuit of a giant marlin and in the process must confront his own frailties. Though the visual aspect of the film seems dated, Tracy is more than enough reason to see this effort at bringing one of the modern classics of literature to life on the screen. --Robert Lane

- Great Movie
I watched this movie for the first time 20 years ago with Anthony Quinn - not Spencer Tracy. It was slightly different - but still a great watch.

Rating:

- A movie you must see.
Hemmingway and Tracy at their best. This is one of the films and books that need to be taken in in your late teens, and then seen again thirty years later.

- old man and the sea
This movie is excellent!A true classic done by one of the greatest actors Hollywood has ever had.The transfer from film to dvd is quite good.This is a must have for any classic movie collection.

Rating:

- innaccurate
I loved the movie when i first saw it at age 11 and still do but the inaccuracy is the marlin footage used is the world record 1560lb Black Marlin caught off Cabo Blanco Peru (Pacific Ocean) by US angler Alfred Glassel in the 1950s.
Black Marlin are only caught in the Pacific NOT in the Caribbean or Atlantic Oceans!!!They should have used Blue Marlin footage which is the marlin species that inhabits Cuba. Still a fun movie!
