Moby Dick the true story

On Novembr 20, 1820, a mammoth 85-foot whale viciously and repeatedly rams the Essex, sinking the hopelessly battered ship. The already exhausted crew of whale hunters is now the hunted. The gripping true story of man's courage vs. the forces of nature at sea is even more heart-pounding and dramatic than the classic Herman Melville novel it inspired.
