The Comedy of Moby Dick

I have been watching Moby Dick on free TV and just Love it! It is a great story and so much fun to watch!
Why fun you may say? It is such a dark, deep film.
It has to do with growing up near Washington Square Mall on the once-great East Washington Street. During films, yelling at the screen was often what made the film fun.
One time, a classmate of mine was going in to see a movie that I had just seen. He asked me what I thought of the film and I said, "The movie was terrible, but provided great opportunities to yell at the screen. I feel great! Like I just got out of 2 hours of therapy."
He said, "Alright!!"
Moby Dick is hilarious to yell at. My favorite thing to yell is "Let it go, Ahab! It's only a fish." - or some variation thereof. Just hilarious!
I would highly recommend yelling at this film! If you do, it would pay tribute to my teen years on East Washington Street.
HAPPY YELLING
