Down to the Sea in Ships Marguerite Courtot, Raymond McKee
Kino International, 2002
Clara Bow landed her first sizable role in the 1922 adventure Down to the Sea in Ships , playing a supporting part as the scrappy tomboy granddaughter of a Quaker whaling magnate. The film has little to do with her and everything to do with the thrilling record of authentically re-created 19th-century whaling, captured by director Elmer Clifton and cinematographer Alexander G. Penrod. The story ...

Sailing in Heavy Weather 4 reviews Sailing in Heavy Weather
Bennett Marine Video, 2007
One of the best sailing DVD's
This title comes pretty close to the category "interesting" and "almost fun to watch" sailing video. The footage of historical offshore races is awesome, interviews with the likes of Warren Luhrs, Olaf Harken et al. are appealing, the many references to Whitbread are both sad and amusing. Above ...

"A White Whale I Say" ~ A Luciferian Allegory Played Out On The High Seas
+ A modern moby dick + Moby Dick my review
Released in '56, `Moby Dick' is one of the film classics of the fifties. Surprisingly the film quality is rather drab at times with the appearance of old newsreel footage. This is generally the case with the shots aboard the Pequot showing billowing sails or the ship from a distance. Yet at other ...

DVD Alinghi: The Inside Story - America's Cup 2003 1 review Alinghi-Inside Story-Americas Cup 2003
Bennett Marine Video, 2005
Good for Sailing Junkies but not for the masses
The DVD Alinghi is more like an edited home video than an in depth documentary of the Cup Run. Those who can't get enough of wonderful sailing images and some great on the deck looks won't be dissapointed; however, if you are looking for a sophisticated look at the America's Cup journey this is ...

Well Worth The Buy
I know people lend their tastes toward disliking this movie, but I don't; in fact, I say that it's a phenomenal feat in movie making. The sets are amazing. The imagination that contrived this story to a visual delight marks celebration. The extended version, in my opinion, though edited for Tv, is ...
