Robert Bolt's screen adaptation of Richard Hugh's book 'Captain Bligh and Mister Christian' (itself a widely acclaimed account of The Mutiny On The Bounty) is directed here by Roger Donald (No Way Out, Species, Dante's Peak). Mel Gibson as Fletcher Christian, and particularly the emminently watchable Anthony Hopkins as Captain Bligh, excel in this intelligent version of the famous 18th Century mutiny. Handsomely photographed by cinematographer Arthur Ibbetson the film boasts a stellar cast that includes Laurence Olivier, Edward Fox, Liam Neeson and Daniel Day Lewis. The Bounty tells this classic story very much from a psychological perspective, and it is as much a thriller as it is a gripping tale of the high seas.
