	Cannery Row Pathfinder
		Cannery Row in Monterey in California is a poem, a stink, a grating noise, a quality of light, a tone, a habit, a nostalgia, a dream.
		Cannery Row is the gathered and scattered, tin and iron and rust and splintered wood, chipped pavement and weedy lots and junk heaps, sardine canneries of corrugated iron, honky-tonks, restaurants and whore-houses, and little crowded groceries, and laboratories and flop-houses.
		Cannery Row is described as the "Center of operations of Monterey's sardine-canning and sardine-reduction industry-whose annual output is unequalled elsewhere in the world" (Delkin, p.121, 1946).

	Makeover in Monterey: 6/11/00
		"Cannery Row is the gathered and scattered, tin and iron and rust and splintered wood, chipped pavement and weedy lots and junk heaps, sardine canneries of corrugated iron, honky tonks, restaurants and whore houses, and little crowded groceries, and laboratories and flophouses.
		And that is what happened to Cannery Row in the late 1940s, after billions of the nearly foot-long Californian pilchards in the "Sardine Capital of the World" began to disappear in cans.
		Cannery Row became an awful, blighted industrial section that stunk the city to high heaven.

	Cannery Row
		Cannery Row is a true classic of American literature, and one of the gentler works to inflict upon high-schoolers.
		CANNERY ROW shows us many great ironies, not the least of which is the fact that "Mack and the boys," a group of down-and-out bums, seem to be more content and fulfilled with their lot in life than is "Doc," the professional man who operates the Western Biological Laboratory.
		Other residents of Cannery Row also connect to the human community, sharing what they have and supporting one another when the fates bring misfortune upon their fellow men.

	Cannery Row
		Steinbeck called her "Dora Williams" in Tortilla Flat, "Dora Flood" in Cannery Row, "Flora" who changed her name to "Fauna" in Sweet Thursday, and in his Cain-and-Abel novel, East of Eden, she became the murdered, motherly madam "Faye." Her real name was Flora Woods.
		Among the unforgettable denizens of Cannery Row are Lee Chong, the grocer; Doc, a young marine biologist who surprisingly finds love; and Dora Flood, the flamboyant proprietess of a bordello.

		This movie tries to be much more than it is, but it ends up being a pretentious take on the differences between men and women and what it's like for young people to date.
		At times, the movie seems to almost have a documentary feel, which is added to by the fl and white and poor quality of footage.
		The first movie was quite good, but they really reached the end of the premise and shouldn't have tried to stretch into a second one.

		If the movie should be the novel Cannery Row then who ever wrote it made a big mistake, otherwise it is a interesting and likeable movie.

		Also some characters had a different name in the movie but you could match there personalities and profession with characters in the book, example; Lee Chong and the Mexican that owns the store in Cannery Row are the same character with the same profession, but have different names and ethnicities.

		On Dec. 7, the Monterey City Council is expected to deliver a decision on whether or not to accept the Cannery Row Historic Survey, a document that will guide the city as to what buildings, zartifacts, and places should be historically designated and which should not.
		Add in the fact that Cannery Row Company single-handedly saved numerous Row buildings that may have otherwise met the wrecking ball, and Balestreri''s resistance of the city''s efforts is understandable.
		For instance, one Cannery Row Company building identified by the survey as meeting National Register criteria burned in 1978 and was rebuilt from the ground up.

	John Steinbeck - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Steinbeck wrote in the naturalist style, often about poor working-class people, and his body of work reflects his wide range of interests, including marine biology, jazz, politics, philosophy, history, and myth.
		Seventeen of his works, including Cannery Row (1945) and The Pearl (1947), went on to become Hollywood films, and Steinbeck himself achieved success as a Hollywood writer, garnering an Academy Award nomination for Best Writing for Alfred Hitchcock's Lifeboat, in 1945.
		The film versions of The Grapes of Wrath and Of Mice and Men (by two different movie studios) were in production simultaneously, and Steinbeck had the immensely satisfying experience of spending a full day on the set of The Grapes of Wrath, then spending the next day on the set of Of Mice and Men.

		Made famous by John Steinbeck's 1945 fictional bestseller, Cannery Row was originally a dirt road that led from Monterey to a settlement of Chinese families near Pacific Grove who helped build the fishing industry for which Monterey would become famous.
		F.E. Booth's development of sardine packing technology in the mid-1800's spawned several competing canneries, and the wagon-rutted, unpaved coastal road between Monterey and Pacific Grove grew to host the sardine factories that for half a century would dominate Monterey history and commerce.
