Devil and the Deep

In Devil and the Deep (1932), Cary Grant plays a lieutenant whose commanding officer (Charles Laughton) suspects him of seducing his wife (Tallulah Bankhead) when the real threat is another officer (Gary Cooper). Spotlighting Grant in his first major supporting role for Paramount studios, this sultry Pre-Code melodrama serves up a deadly love triangle with a thrilling climax set aboard a submarine that is trapped at the bottom of the sea. Directed by Marion Goring and featuring the stunning cinematography of Academy Award-winner Charles Lang (A Farewell to Arms, 1932), this offers a rare opportunity to see four screen legends together at the beginnings of their film careers.
