Ahoy there me hearties, did you happen to see, the biggest white whale, as big as can be; riven by scarring, barnacle strewn, the mind of a demon, tattooed by harpoon.

It's a tough book to crack but the filmed story leaves us under no illusion of the barbarity of man over his perceived kingdom, and one man in particular, the tormented tyrant of the Pequod. Outstanding performances all round, none more so than the gnarled and knotted Ahab presented by Gregory Peck.
