Title: Much better than the book
Review: I'm sorry but the book is boring. More time is taken on minutia and actually very little on what may be the best story line in any classic. John Houston captures the story line, develops the characters as Melville never did, and made a movie that everyone should see. The acting is superb with Peck delivering a performance equal to his work in Mockingbird. Basehart is outstanding without conflicting with Peck.
