Use an apostrophe!

Wow, it seems it's more different than I feared! Leaving out that decision and the racial dynamic is a terrible idea. Come on, Ron!

Well, the review mentions "viscera". But, you know, there's "viscera", and then there's viscera.

The commercials do seem to be selling this as an adaptation of Moby-Dick, confusing the fact further by making Melville part of the movie.

I don't know that much specifically, but this review mentions the ending isn't factual, harpoon lines get wrapped around tails, and things like the tortoise demise are left out. Based on the trailers, the methods of hunting in the whaleboats seem overly dramatized.

Constance is adult Mattie Ross from True Grit.

I think the confusion stems from the book having "Mid West", which I'd never seen before.

As a Chicagoan, I'm kind of upset Illinois has been kicked out of the Midwest. Up until now, I thought Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan were some of the states (along with Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin) that were universally considered part of that region.

She realized what?
