About

You can stream Moby Dick (1956) on fuboTV with a subscription, rent on Apple TV+, or buy on Apple TV+.

In 1841, young Ishmael signs up for service aboard the Pequod, a whaler sailing out of New Bedford. The ship is under the command of Captain Ahab, a strict disciplinarian who exhorts his men to find Moby Dick, the great white whale. Ahab lost his leg to that creature and is desperate for revenge. As the crew soon learns, he will stop at nothing to gain satisfaction.

This mid-century epic favors operatic scale and sweeping ocean vistas over simple maritime realism. Instead of a mere creature feature, the film transforms a hunt into a psychological battle between a man's obsession and the indifferent sea.
