Master and Commander: The Far Side Of The World

Based on the best-selling novels of Patrick O'Brian, the film stars Russell Crowe as 'Lucky' Jack Aubrey, who pits his crew of the H.M.S. Surprise against a much better armed and ruthless privateer, in a chase that takes him all the way to the far side of the world. Rising newcomer Paul Bettany ('A Beautiful Mind') plays Jack's 'other half,' Dr. Stephen Maturin.
