Just re-viewed 1956 Moby Dick...

and I was knocked out by it. I saw it as a boy wheen it first came out in theaters, and loved it. This time the wonderful language and writing (Melville, of course, with screenplay by Ray Bradbury and John Huston), characters (terrific casting across the board, with Gregory Peck as a truly scary Ahab) and feel of the place and time totally captivated me. See it again if you can. It's clear that "Master and Commander" owes a great deal to this landmark movie.
