Default Ghost and the Sea Wolf

No dumbass the movie was cool. Yet it lacked a good director with any
nautical knowledge.



You wrote "cool story" NOT "cool movie." You're so stupid and lacking
in a fundamental education, you practically scream it with every post.
As for the director of The Sea Wolf, a movie not at all about sailing,
it was directed by Michael Curtiz who also made such little films as
Casablanca, We're No Angels, and Yankee Doodle Dandy. It was written
by Robert Rossen who also worked on The Hustler and A Walk in the Sun.
Now if you want more nautical texture then try reading the book, or
have someone read it to you. In the meantime you'd do well to avoid
talking about subjects you know little about...such as film and
sailing.
The Sea Wolf by Curtiz remains the finest adaptation of the story,
though there are quite a few changes from the original.
On the other hand Joe's idiocy remains unchanged.
