Nowhere as impactful as the literary classic it's adapted from, but this is still some good old-timey entertainment spearheaded by one of the most prolific directors and one of the most esteemed actors of a generation.

A fair stab at adapting the classic novel by science fiction novelist Ray Bradbury, this is still the definitive screen version. Gregory Peck plays nicely against cast as the archetypal obsessive and has plenty of nice period detail. It's also interesting to see where pretty much every sea bound adventure gets it's inspiration...
