The Caine Mutiny is a 1954 drama film set during World War II, directed by Edward Dmytryk and produced by Stanley Kramer. It stars Humphrey Bogart, Jose Ferrer, Van Johnson and Fred MacMurray, and is based on the 1951 Pulitzer Prize winning novel by Herman Wouk The Caine Mutiny. The film depicts a mutiny aboard a fictitious World War II U.S. Navy destroyer minesweeper, the Caine, and the subsequent court-martial of two officers

Reception
Bogart's performance as Lt. Commander Philip Queeg is considered by many to be the greatest performance of his career. Although his role is not as popular as his portrayals in earlier films, such as Casablanca or The Big Sleep, he was commended by critics for his "ticking time bomb" method of acting that inspired Jack Nicholson in The Shining. When his final scene was shot, Bogart was applauded by the entire crew


Awards and honors
The film received Oscar nominations for Best Picture, Best Actor (Humphrey Bogart, losing to Marlon Brando for On the Waterfront), Best Supporting Actor (Tom Tully), Best Screenplay, Best Sound Recording, Best Film Editing, and Best Dramatic Score (Max Steiner).

Dmytryk was also nominated for a Directors Guild Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Motion Pictures
