Adventure, Whaling, 1800s, Philosophical, Survival

An epic story, epic film. This is the story that Moby Dick was based on and it does not disappoint. If you like seafaring stories of adventure and survival, you'll enjoy this one. If you like visuals that feel sweeping, epic, and as picturesque as a Turner painting, you're in for a treat. This film is not about dialogue or acting, but rather the escape. It is philosophical and spiritual and delves into those basic, primitive questions of life and death. A splendid story.
