Tugboat Annie
MGM’s most profitable picture of 1933 wasn’t shot in Hollywood, but in Seattle where Pike Place Market features prominently. Marie Dressler is a tugboat skipper, whose devotion to her son is a reprieve from the constant slapstick brawling with her shiftless drunk of a husband, Wallace Beery. Mervyn LeRoy directs.
