Moby Dick - La balena bianca (1956)
L'epica lotta mortale del capitano Achab contro il cetaceo che lo ha storpiato. Ismaele, giovane marinaio, si imbarca su di una baleniera. Il capitano è il fanatico Achab che è alla ricerca di una balena bianca, Moby Dick, alla quale deve la perdita di una gamba. Achab promette una moneta d'oro a chi avvisterà il cetaceo. Durante il viaggio l'inquietudine si impossessa degli uomini.
