#MASTER AND COMMANDER CAST SERIES#

The seamen have no time to think about women as they work hard swabbing the deck, while the gung-ho officers are too busy drinking rum to even remember what a woman looks like. They are aboard the British ship carrying 197 souls and twenty-eight guns. ItвЂ™s much different in scope from this yearвЂ™s other blockbuster story on the high seas - DisneyвЂ™s theme park comedy pirate film - Pirates of the Caribbean. ItвЂ™s a rousing though conventional and predictable sea-faring escapade of the old-fashioned kind, where thereвЂ™s even some sing-along sea shanties in the offering to numb the pain from all the tedium and loud thunder from the cannonball fire. The film is set in 1805 as it changes the time period from OвЂ™BrianвЂ™s first novelвЂ™s War of 1812 (this way it wonвЂ™t take a chance in antagonizing an American audience) and infuses into the story the plot of The Far Side of the World, the 10th book in the series.
