Rent Beneath the 12 Mile Reef (1953)


Father and son, Mike Petrakis and Tony, are coral-sponge diving entrepreneurs whose business is being threatened by the Rhys family of fishermen who are prepared to resort to violence and even murder to maintain and establish their fishing grounds. Run-ins between the Rhys and Petrakis families lead to threats resulting in all-out brawls and a most surprising outcome love. When Tony Petrakis meets Gwyneth Rhys, he falls head over heels. In this adaptation of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, will the rivalry of the two families bring Tony and Gwyneth closer together, or will it end in tragedy? In one of the earliest films shot in Cinemascope, this timeless movie gathered critical acclaim for the break-through underwater photography.
