Horrible movie!


I read all the mistake comments and didn't see one mentioning a cassette tape in 1969. Worst of all about this movie was the line when the girl says "Why would a whale act like this?" And captain ahabs response is "Why would babies die in their sleep?". What horrible writing.

This turd of a movie got a 2.5 rating? More like a 0.5', I'd say.

I haven't seen the movie, and based on the comments here, I never will. Moby Dick was one of the best books I've ever read and I hate to see anyone spoil it. The 1956 version with Gregory Peck is not bad, but I saw that long before I read the book. Melville's novel is a masterpiece.

The compact cassette tape was invented in 1962.

But most likely not in the format they were using as a prop in this movie from the late 80's...
