Ghost and the Sea Wolf
However had Curtiz not been a total lubber like you he could have
told the same story and made it much more to the liking of a true mariner like Jack London. Yeah, I'm sure Curtiz was truly interested in making The Sea Wolf nautically correct for London, who'd been dead for 25 years. I'm also sure that other directors like Curtiz never take artistic licence for the film medium. I also suppose that movies/Star Trek like Star Wars, Alien and most Sci fi classics are also poor since they are innacurate in their depiction of space travel. Dude, get a life. I went sailing while you posted. Sailing again tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday. Maybe you can download more dead children photos while we sail! RB 35s5 NY |

RB 35s5 NY Face it Rob, the movie, just like "through dead eyes" would have been much better had the producer hired a decent director. Oh and I'm so proud of you, you got to sail..Was it your first or second time this year? You better race along on your long commute and get all the sailing in while you can...3 mo and you will have to pull Suzy's boat so it can hogg on the stands for 9 mo. of the year. Glad you took the time to view the pictures..to bad the dead kids are not as good as your kid and not worty of American help since Saddam had no WMD's. Only a total asshole braindead retard would not see those pictures as justification to liberate Iraq..That's you BTW. Joe |

Oh and I'm so proud of you, you got to sail..Was it your first or second time this year? 2nd sail this week, plus going this evening, tomorrow night, Saturday and Sunday. You did actually mean this week, didn't you? I also sailed on three different boats this week. Did you sail that much? Glad you took the time to view the pictures..to bad the dead kids are not as good as your kid and not worty of American help Bush has killed many kids in the last few years, which is why he'll eventually be charged with being a war criminal.

But for the average lubber like you, I guess it will be seen as a realistic portrayal of a ship and crew at sea.. No wonder you're afraid to sail offshore. His artistic touch was a bit off on this one...I'm sure you can relate. Joe RB 35s5 NY |

You clearly understand the book and movie since you were hoping for a reaslitic portrayal of a ship at sea and didn't find one. Good work. We're all hoping you review John Huston's Moby Dick next or as you'd title it, "Monster Whale vs. the Whalers." RB 35s5 NY |

What I was looking for is a well told story with background and common sence to match. What you call artistic view is about the same thing they did with the Perfect Storm. In trying to create an artistic mood they made the crew and Skipper of the Andrea Dora look like a boat load of retards....but the lubbers ate it up. I guess if you are watching an artist versions of mariners it would be better if you are an baffon lubber and not have a clue so you can enjoy it and not be bothered by the glaring stupity...huh?

Joe, you believe that I have puppets here??? Okay. What I was looking for is a well told story with background and common sence to match. Curtiz work often reflected a stylistic approach that required some imagination and cinematic education from the viewer. What you call artistic view is about the same thing they did with the Perfect Storm. In trying to create an artistic mood they made the crew and Skipper of the Andrea Dora look like a boat load of retards....but the lubbers ate it up. Who ate it up? The Perfect Storm was a dissapointment both economically and critically. The Sea Wolf was popular on both fronts. I guess if you are watching an artist versions of mariners it would be better if you are an baffon lubber and not have a clue so you can enjoy it and not be bothered by the glaring stupity...huh? Like I said, you never read the book, You have no idea how stupid you sound. The Ghost is depicted in the movie much as it was in the book. Curtiz pushed it further, but even in the book, "Unlike other ships, the decks of the Ghost lay barren and lonely; her crew hidden away in fear." So now we all know that you're not only too stupid to understand a good movie, but also ignorant of it's famous source. Well done, Joe! RB 35s5 NY |
