根據梅爾.維爾的經典文學名改編,由老牌導演約翰.休斯掌舵,加上格利高里.派克將傲倔強的艾海伯船長塑造得入三分,使本片成為海上冒險片經典佳作。故事以一條全身純的巨型鯨魚莫比敵為中心發(fā)展它是一條被水手們視為魔鬼化的兇猛鯨魚。艾海伯在捕捉它過程中被咬掉了一條腿,這種辱與傷痛更激發(fā)起他一定要打這條巨鯨的決心,然而也因他種偏執(zhí)狂的意志導致很多無辜員葬身海底的悲劇。本片的海歷險場面拍得相當壯觀,在細的心理刻畫之外也有不錯的娛效果。\rThis classic story by Herman Melville revolves around Captain Ahab and his obsession with a huge whale, Moby Dick. The whale caused the loss of Ahab's leg years before, leaving Ahab to stomp the boards of his ship on a peg leg. Ahab is so crazed by his desire to kill the whale, that he is prepared to sacrifice everything, including his life, the lives of his crew members, and even his ship to find and destroy his nemesis, Moby Dick.展開
