| | Master and Commander: the Far Side of the World (2003)Synopsis: Nominated for 10 Academy Awards® and won 2 Oscars® for Best Cinematography and Best Sound Editing, MASTER AND COMMANDER plunges viewers deep into the story of a British Navy ship at sea during the Napoleonic war. Jack Aubrey (Academy Award®-winner Russell Crowe), the charismatic captain who wrestles with issues like honour, pride, duty, sacrifice and loyalty while using ingenious tactics to engage his prey--a much larger and better-equipped French Man o' War. The ship's doctor, who cautions Aubrey about letting revenge cloud his judgement after the French Man o' War almost sinks them in an early battle. Before the incredibly intense final skirmish the men battle a raging storm, launch an excursion to the Galapagos Islands, find time for grog-enhanced merriment, and endure some primitive surgery. | Date Released : November 19, 2003 | Casts: Russell Crowe, Paul Bettany, Billy Boyd Duration : 138 minutes
