Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World
The British frigate HMS Surprise and French warship The Acheron stalk each other off the coast of South America during the Napoleonic War. Russell Crowe plays Captain Aubry, a salty old sea dog whose gruff decency is perfecly offset by Paul Bettany's gently intelligent ship's doctor. Two of Patrick O'Brian's hugely popular nautical novels are spliced into one epic action adventure on the high seas.
