MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY (1935)

FRANK LLOYD

Plot

The first, and many would argue the best, of Hollywood's interpretations of the infamous mutiny aboard HMS Bounty in the South Pacific in 1789, an historic battle of wills between Fletcher Christian and Captain Bligh. This version virtually deserts Christian after the mutiny, concentrating on Bligh's amazing 4,000 mile open boat voyage and the subsequent court-martial.
