The TVI Take
Peter Weir's 2003 Napoleonic-era seafaring film, adapted from Patrick O'Brian's twenty-novel series. Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany play a Royal Navy captain and his ship's surgeon-naturalist.
Weir's commitment to period accuracy in sail-handling, navigation, and naval medicine produces one of the most procedurally rigorous adventure films of the century.
