This storm was mentioned in Key Largo. Great scene.
L
Great movie.
I was wondering if the hurricane and the location of the setting in “Key Largo” might have been influenced by the Labor Day Hurricane.
The script itself was, “adapted from a 1939 play by Maxwell Anderson. In the play, the gangsters are Mexican bandidos, the war in question is the Spanish Civil War, and Frank is a disgraced deserter who dies at the end.”
