A bit of fun

Continuing on with the videos we watched in class, I found these. First, the Moby Dick story told in the ever dependable Lego format.



Enjoy!!!


OK thats just a bit silly.

Here is another scene from the original "Moby Dick" movie, the white whale is sighted and the whale boats are lowered and the chase is afoot!



More interestingly below is an excerpt taken from the 1998 TV mini series.

Setting the scene: Ishmael has arrived in town (Nantucket?) intending to enlist on a whaler. He takes a room for the night in an Inn but must share the room with a harpooner (Queequeg) who arrives well after Ishamel has gone to bed. He has with him several articles of interest... This time Queequeg is given a more definite cultural background. See if you can figure it out?
