| Great American literature brilliantly dramatized
This movie is a diamond that had long since been lost to posterity, but due to the clamour of the cultured and literate baby-boomers, who would not rest until it had been returned to circulation.

| Classic Cinema At Its Best
Herman Melville's timeless story of the struggle between the just, the cruel and the innocent lost in the battle. Expertly cast and brought to the screen as only the great Peter Ustinov could.

| Yarrrrrrr shiver me timbers
Well acted version of a classic story with homoerotic overtones but nothing seen or directly implied.
