Any thoughts on William Hurt as Capt. Ahab?

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Encore is showing another version of Moby Dick at 8 Eastern time,this time with Hurt at the helm.I thought Patrick Stewart did pretty well in the A&E remake but Gregory Peck's Ahab remains the standard portrayal.
On a silly note,scifi channel had a horrible modern update of Moby Dick,with Barry Bostick as Ahab.Ahab has a submarine in that version,ol' Moby was hundreds of feet long,had a pointed snout.....yeah,it sucked.
