Somewhat pedestrian made for TV fare. A story of sibling rivalry at a waterfront crab fishing operation. Includes outdoor shots of downtown Hampton waterfront circa 1980. An in-offensive family melodrama. Not available on video at this time.

King Crab
coltras357 August 2022
Two brothers take over the family seafood business, and battle each other for control of the company - and their father's attention.
I first saw this on BBC1 in 1992 and I didn't expect to see it beyond the title credits, but the story grabbed me. It's quite melodramatic and fairly gripping with great location and acting, the latter infuses some energy into a rather familiar story. Barry Newman in particular delivers a great performance.
