    The deeper analysis of the movie revolves around concepts and ideas that have nothing to do with whales or whaling. Melville melded the esoteric and biblical with traits unique to Americans. The biblical character of Ishmael begs further attention. Consider Mr Starbuck, a quaker with capitalist motives who quarrels with Ahab's idealism. The harpooneers are all native Americans, islanders or former slaves. The Pequod itself becomes representative of America.

    It seemed to be an analysis of the oligarchical banking system over mankind in general. It may have been America, but there are no distinct connections as such that I saw (I didn't look very closely). The Quequeg character does seem reminiscent of the ancient Irish with an almost "royal" sense of loyalty and weakness for human fellowship (the longing of the soul for adventure and fulfillment?). I'd heard that the ship Pequod was a symbol of the human soul. I won't attempt to distort the symbolism further.

The Ron Howard film was amazing in my opinion while it took a few liberties with history and the trials of the survivors after the 'Essex' sank. Nevertheless the true story is one of the most phenomenal, heart-wrenching and chilling survival stories that's ever occurred.

    Even back then, whaling was a wasteful enterprise. To give you guys a sobering statistic, in the early nineteenth century the common whale species that kept the industry going were getting so depleted that a ban on harvesting the Bowhead and the Right Whale (Called that way because of being the "Right whale" to hunt) was instated. But that also meant that the whalers had to look at what they considered to be the lesser whale species, the Gray Whale, which not only produced lesser quantities of whale oil but very different from the Bowhead or Right whales would actually get violent and would attack the boats. Gray whales were so ferocious that the Whalers nicknamed them "Devil fish" Pelagic whaling became increasingly difficult to do because of coastal whale stocks having been virtually wiped out completely. A solution came when Whalers learned of huge stocks of whales still available in the great oceans which is why those great voyages that Melville talks about took place. Crews would be at sea for months on end. But at the end of the nineteenth century, two things happened: the first was that the explosive harpoon and the harpooning cannon were invented, the second was the invention of the steam powered ship. All of a sudden the Rorqual whale species like the Humpback, the Finwhale and the Blue whale were in reach and the whaling industry was rejuvenated. But already in 1920 the alarm was sounded, the whalers once again had depleted the stocks to such a degree that it wasn't sustainable. Throughout all of this, the Sperm whale had been a fail safe measure, for example in Australia, when during the sixties, the Humpback was near extinction, the whalers switched back to the Sperm whale since they knew what it yielded. There's a documentary about shark research shot in the seventies where the research crew is on board a harpooning ship to dive into the blood filled water to study the sharks attracted to the dead whale. We see the sperm whale just after it had been harpooned thrashing and one of the researchers quipping "So sad, we know so little about them and by the time we want to know they'll be extinct." In biology books from the eighties, the bleak assumption had been made that the Sperm whale would be extinct in 1990. We are VERY fortunate that they're still around.

    Clydebear, yes, it’s a great book! I've read it more than once. It's a pity that Ron Howard's movie which is an adaptation of Philbrick's book and Thomas Nickerson's documents, isn't very good. Chris Hemsworth is Owen Chase, and while I like Chris Hemsworth, he was miscast. And unfortunately the CGI whale attack isn't great. This is really a lost opportunity. This project had potential. Ron Howard should have used much more of the wealth of knowledge gathered by Philbrick instead of doing a standard Hollywood movie.

The most worrying thing is that women now also has begun to show this tendency. Once they were the ones to make men come to their senses when they were wrong about something.

    Ever wonder why it is when you see footage of whaling, that after the whale is killed and brought up to the side of boat, the crew cut the flukes of the tail off? The official reason is for ease of transport, but actually it's a bit of superstition because whalers used to refer a whale's flukes as "the Hand of God" which could crush boats with a single swipe. So to in effect diffuse a bomb, the first thing the whalers do is cut the flukes so the "hand of God" can't do them any harm.

While after on the Essex, everyone survives the sinking and eventually run out of food, they resort cannibalism to survive before being rescued.

    The way this works all comes down to catching the whales at their downtime, you see for whales breathing is no reflex movement, it's a conscious effort which is also why they can hold their breath for so long, so they replenish their energy and air supply. Apart from that downtime, a Sperm whale actually spends very little time at the surface of the water. So the whalers learned to get them at that very small time frame they had. Also and this is also the reason why whale species such as the Humpback and the Finwhale weren't being hunted at the time, a Sperm whale is not heavier than water, so it floats when killed.

Such a moving scene. The early parts of the movie were boring, and silly, and far too focused on Thor.

When actually it was the Evil, "I Don't care what peasants think" Stereotype who backed down and went against his own decisions because he obviously didn't have the balls(The Evil Balls) To tell Chase "NO". if the captain would have done what he thought was best, they never would have ended up in the mess, Which he did bowed down to his will more than once.

    After the early squall that flipped her over on her side, Pollard wanted to return to Nantucket, but was convinced otherwise...and they provisioned at Cape Verde, for repairs and to obtain replacement whaleboats....illustrating further Pollards weakness as captain.

    I think it’s worth noting that back in those days, Captains had to be careful what orders to give as choosing an unpopular opinion runs the risk of mutiny… and at best, mutinies resulted in the captain (and potentially those idling with the captain) forced into a spare row boat and set adrift… at worse, death. I think that the captain in this case was well aware that his men could mutiny against him should he make the wrong decision. Ironically, he made the wrong decisions.

    I tried reading Moby Dick but couldn't get into it. I did read In The Heart Of The Sea, though. I'm related to the Folgers, Starbucks, Coffins, Swains, and maybe the Gardners, of Nantucket. Gayer Starbuck and Rachel Folger are my 6x great grandparents.

    First off, why in the world did he say "nothing is known about the whale that sank the Essex"? It was found several years later and harpooned to death. In Reynolds' account, Mocha Dick was killed in 1838, after he appeared to come to the aid of a distraught cow whose calf had just been slain by the whalers. His body was 70 feet long and yielded 100 barrels of oil, along with some ambergris-a substance used in the making of perfumes and at times worth more per ounce than gold. He also had twenty harpoons in his body.

    @reyganbriggs, the story of Mocha Dick is indeed very interesting. But it's not at all certain that Mocha Dick was the whale who destroyed the Essex. The crew of the Essex didn't get a good look at the whale who attacked them, and no one saw something which could've been a distinguishing mark. They just saw that the whale was huge! But he wasn't an albino whale. Philbrick actually said that over time the behavior of the male sperm whales changed. They started to be more aggressive towards the mother ships, as if they had figured out the origins of the beings who attacked and slaughtered them. It's hard to say what was going on since the behavior of sperm whales is still not completely understood, and today they aren't under attack anymore.
