Animated feature about a young whale named Moby Dick.

An unfinished 1971 film project in which Orson Welles performs readings from Moby Dick against a minimalist blue-screen setting, conceived as a stylized, abstract adaptation but never edited or completed. (Note: Not to be confused with Welles’s separate 1955 filmed stage project Moby Dick—Rehearsed.)

The demented, ruthless Captain Ahab pursues the white whale which took off his leg years before.

The television play begins with the story of Ishmael, an American sailor who sets out on a whaling voyage. The ship's captain, Ahab, is obsessed with getting revenge on a giant white whale known as Moby Dick. During a previous voyage, the whale bit off Ahab’s leg, and since then, the captain has worn a prosthetic.

In 1841 young Ishmael signs aboard the whaling ship Pequod, under the command of the strict, one-legged Capt. Ahab. Ishmael soon finds out that Ahab is searching for the legendary white whale, Moby Dick, who cost Ahab his leg, and he will let nothing stand in the way of getting his revenge on the beast.

A play-within-play of Moby Dick by Orson Welles.

An adaptation of Moby Dick as a silent film and theatre piece with a postcolonial and queer reading that highlights its marginal characters.

Herman Melville's epic ocean adventure "Moby Dick" is an American masterpiece. But was this stirring tale of violence and revenge simply an allegory, or were there real giants of the deep deliberately attacking whaling ships? With the help of centuries old witness accounts and modern day science, we explain how the legend of the great white whale came to be. Then we determine if the multiple sperm whale assaults on ships in the 19th century were indeed premeditated and coordinated.
