Moby Dick with Gregory Peck
Source: Amazon.com
- From an Amazon reviewer: "I really, really enjoy this movie. Forget the Patrick Stewart version and see this one ... the special effects still beat any computerized junk I can think of. I never think for a moment I'm looking at a large, rubber whale. The whale hunts are invigorating and exciting, the narration par excellence, the Quaker-meets-saltwater dialogue is terrrific." (1956)
