The Bounty (1984) - William Bligh Highlights

Lieutenant William Bligh (Anthony Hopkins) goes insane trying to keep his crew in control.

Anthony Hopkins and Mel Gibson are obviously easy to notice. But see if you can spot a young Daniel Day-Lewis, Liam Neeson, and Dexter Fletcher (who by the way is 1 of the 4 main characters from Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels).

I came across a blog that described this film as horrible and over the top.I couldnt disagree more .Perhaps im biased but i find it to be one of the best

[aaaa1970able]

Hopkins should have won an Oscar for this.

The theme of this film by Vangelis realy sets the tone of the film as a mood piece, some of the acting could be considered over the top, who knows if Bligh really was that hot headed and I dont think much was shown in the way of his actual voyage in the long boat those 700 lonely miles apart from the island but the film is memorable

I agree with aaaa1970able...Hopkins should of won an Oscar for this. This is the first movie I saw with him in it. He is an amazing actor. I was hooked on him after seeing this...as well as Mel.

One of the best movies made...Anthony and Mel were awesome in this.

He navigated an open boat with 18 men over 3000 nautical miles from memory alone without the the aid of charts. Christian kept the charts. No loss of life occurred during the open boat voyage, with exception of one man killed on the island of Tofua where they stopped to rest and find water, the man murdered by natives and was most presumably feasted upon.
