One night, Bobo and his philosophical friend, Nutsy (Rains), happen upon a suicide attempt; a young woman tries to walk into the ocean. Bobo saves her and she’s, at first, ungrateful. But taking her to his tackle shack, she warms up and thanks Bobo. She reveals that her name is Ana (Lupino) and life has been unduly hard for her since she’s had to work as a prostitute.

''Moontide'' (1942) is a FilmNoir starring Creator/JeanGabin, Creator/IdaLupino, Creator/ThomasMitchell, and Creator/ClaudeRains.
Bobo (Gabin) is a vagabond on the high seas currently parked in a Californian port. His friend, Tiny (Mitchell), wants him to join a ship headed for San Francisco and beyond. Bobo, however, has other plans and gets incredibly plastered, missing the opportunity.
His drunkenness leads him to believe that he might have killed a man the night before. Tiny is sure of it and assures him that the secret is safe with him. Finding himself on a tackle shack after this night, he’s hired by Takeo (Victor Sen Yung) and his son to sell bait to passing fishing boats. To find his footing for the moment, Bobo decides to stay.
One night, Bobo and his philosophical friend, Nutsy (Rains), happen upon a suicide attempt; a young woman tries to walk into the ocean. Bobo saves her and she’s, at first, ungrateful. But taking her to his tackle shack, she warms up and thanks Bobo. She reveals that her name is Ana (Lupino) and life has been unduly hard for her since she’s had to work as a prostitute.
Finding a kindred spirit, Bobo falls in love with Ana and decides to finally grow some roots. However, this plan is not to Tiny’s liking since Bobo is his cash cow. He soon looks to thwart Bobo’s plans for love and stability.
This film was Jean Gabin’s American debut, but dissatisfied with American cinema after a few films, he returned to France soon after.

!!This film shows the following tropes:
*TheAlcoholic: Bobo. It’s a constant problem for him. He drinks so much that he may or may not have killed a man during a drunken rage.
*AntiHero: PlayedWith. Throughout the film, it seems like Bobo is a killer with an alcohol problem who’s also extremely likeable. It’s apparent that once he’s drunk and enraged, he can do almost anything. As it turns out, he’s a decent man who’s incredibly lonely, currently being manipulated by a false friend.
*BeAWhoreToGetYourMan: Nutsy’s advice to Ana on her wedding night. He tells her that she should have no inhibitions with her husband. This convinces Ana to put on the revealing evening gown Bobo gave her. Unfortunately, this outfit is the catalyst to prompt Tiny into attacking her.
*{{Blackmail}}: Tiny is blackmailing Bobo with the apparent knowledge that he’s killed at least two people during drunken blackouts. He uses this as leverage if Bobo ever tries to leave him.
*Chiaroscuro: The film is ripe with dense fogs, rain, and ominous lighting especially in the final climax.
*TheDrifter: A classic longshoreman, Bobo doesn’t stay anywhere for long.
*EvilDetectingDog: Bobo’s LoyalAnimalCompanion dog hates Tiny.
*FalseFriend: At first, Tiny seems to be a true friend trying to keep Bobo sober and working. But it later becomes apparent he’s only using Bobo as an ATM.
*FourthDateMarriage: A case of LoveAtFirstSight, Bobo and Ana are both lonely people who fall in love quickly. It doesn’t take long for them to decide to get married.
*InterruptedSuicide: Bobo saves Ana from drowning.
*PimpedOutDress: As a wedding gift, Bobo buys a revealing evening gown for Ana from the prostitute he had a drunken night with. She puts it on for Bobo, but when Tiny comes to interrupt the wedding night, he finds her attractive and attempts to assault her.
*SuicideBySea: Ana attempts this but is thwarted by Bobo’s heroism.
*WhatDidIDoLastNight: After Bobo’s drunken night out, he can’t remember a thing. So much so that Tiny has him convinced that he might have killed a man – he’s done it before.
*WorstWeddingEver: Worst wedding night ever. Tiny finds Ana in her provocative dress and attempts to sexually assault her. She fights him off, but he beats her badly.
