You can feel the inner torment of Ahab. Peck had this part nailed down and this film is a benchmark in cinema history me hearties!

[@davidgriffin7649]

Just recently watched the film myself and Ahab is the second captain to utterly terrify me the first would be Flint from Treasure Island. Gregory Peck did a wonderful job conveying the madness brimming below the surface.

@Tim Cantrell He tasks me! That boy, he tasks me!

[@gabrielbennett5162]

Gregory Peck was perfectly cast, he looks exactly like I always imagined Ahab.

[@PawlDunken]

Me too like abraham Lincoln

[@3dbadboy1]

Word is it he went way out of his way to get this part. Even arrived before production started.

[@mindelo23]

Gregory Peck will forever be the only captain Ahab.

[@PawlDunken]

Yeah I feel the same way! He still inspires me

[@christophercota2862]

Ahah means Abraham Lincoln right

[@murdockfiles9406]

Patrick Stewart was amazing also

[@hugadarn5700]

until nic cage does it

[@alexandervonkarnstein]

​@@murdockfiles9406Yes, but NOT so intensive.

[@GraemeWight-wx3xz]

Pecks signature role. I first saw this when i was 3 or 4 in 79 or 80 and i watched it every christmas on stv or bbc till i was old enough to go clubbing during festive time.

[@chardtomp]

It's cool that Queequeg, Teshtego, and Daggoo all know Moby Dick apparently having encountered him before.

[@banjoist123]

This is loosely based on an actual white sperm whale named "Mocha Dick".

[@williamhicks7736]

Probably Gregory Peck’s finest performance…. A great film! John Huston’s version will never be outdone!

[@Abdullah1475]

my favorite gregory peck movie!

[@shawnallen9275]

"Aye!! It was Moby Dick. Who tore my soul and body until they bled into each other. Aye. I'll chase him around the Horn and the Norway maelstrom and thru Perdition's Flame... before I give him up. This is what you signed up for men..."

[@waterboy2602]

Can you drop me off at the next port of call?

[@porkfrog2785]

Peck is Ahab the way Perkins is Norman Bates, destroying the role for anyone else. That voice!

[@Joseph-s6y]

It's absolutely true. Nobody could top him as Ahab.

[@chardtomp]

@@Joseph-s6y Oddly, he didn't like his own performance in this film, but I agree, he's awesome. There are several other movie renditions, but he is by far the best Ahab.

[@Joseph-s6y]

@@chardtomp is that true? He didn't like his performance?? I guess we are our own worst critic. His performance was nothing less than cinematic legend.

[@travisfriedland9346]

Bernard miles is the manxman give me a terrific performance he was one of the greatest actors England ever saw there won't be anyone like him ever again

[@nickmiller76]

Indeed, his work in the Mackeson advert was the stuff of legend. And who can ever forget his rendering of the immortal line: "Go to work on an egg". Right up there with some of Orson Welles's finest 'late period' sherry adverts.

[@delta30024fly]

Always my favorite movie on Family Classics with Frazier Thomas back in Chicago.

[@maureencora1]

WGN-TV 1960s, Here-Hear!!

[@jamesverduzco2916]

One of the greatest films of all time. Peck was a perfect ahab. Millville would have been proud. Films now are pathetic.

[@ThePirucho77]

this movie is 10 times better that the new version

[@LukeCutox97italia]

What new version??

[@ThePirucho77]

@@LukeCutox97italia 2015...in the heart of sea, moby dick

[@sejembalm]

It's a white whale, I say. Skin your eyes for him. Captain, sir, could it be the one that fantails a little curious before he go down? Has he a curious spout, all bushy and mighty quick and high, sir? And irons in his hide, many irons, all twist around? Aye, like corkscrews. He's struck full of harpoons, men. And his spout is a big one, like a whole shock of wheat. And he fantails like a broken jib in a storm. Death, men, you've seen him. It's Moby Dick.

[@shawnthaicon2586]

Legendary..classical..iconic speech

[@shawnthaicon2586]

How the hell he said that in one take without taking a breath is nothing short of amazing

[@jamesquirk4999]

Greatest seafaring movie 🎬 Moby Dick starring Gregory Pack in his greatest movie 🎬 performance as Captain Ahab and Richard Basehart in his greatest movie performance as Ismael.

[@wayneantoniazzi2706]

I don't know about you but man, I REALLY miss that magnificent speaking voice Richard Basehart had! The perfect narrator for this film from the first moment. "Call me, Ishmael..."

[@biggerthanacadillac]

Surely Melville wrote MD as a vehicle for Greg, Peck. They don't make films like this any more.

[@robruss62]

So epic even Khan quoted him

[@keeskloost6977]

The hunt of Dicky Mob.

[@MondoBeno]

The camera work is very un-50's. It's the kind of rough imagery that came with the New Hollywood of the 70's.

[@jannbruns9345]

Hallo ich Hätte dieses Video auch gerne auf Deutsch gesehen vom Anfang bis Ende 😊

[@racerx1989]

check out Mariners Home in New Bedford my bunk was upstairs near the window . Drink Like Melville all day long. Action in the North Atlantic Bogart. Walk across street from Porter T stop .

[@znikerxd502]

0:35 captain Ahab looks like a statue with the look on nothing

[@deepcosmiclove]

“It's a white whale, I say,” resumed Ahab, as he threw down the topmaul: "a white whale. Skin your eyes for him, men; look sharp for white water; if ye see but a bubble, sing out."

[@AyG2913]

Doblon de oro español.

[@leroyfisher9768]

Darth Vader ain't got nothing on Captain Ahab😅

[@wayneantoniazzi2706]

It took three people to make Darth Vader. The costume designer, Davis Prowse for the body and James Earl Jones for the voice. Greg Peck did it all by himself. You are SO right!
