3/4

A boisterous affair featuring 19th Century whaling, star-crossed lovers, and a young Clara Bow in her screen debut.

If you like ships, whaling, and romance, you may like this movie. I didn't like how this movie spent so much time on showing you how they caught and cut up the whales and sailed out to catch more, it was like reading Moby Dick, but even duller. The romance part of it was pretty good, though, and Clara Bow is very cute. Overall I didn't like it, though, there was just too much whaling.
