Here is my full reaction to Master and Commander. I absolutely loved seeing the way they lived not only in that time period but on a ship as their home. I loved the way they talked and entertained themselves and even in the middle of a fight to the death they would call each other "Mr.". I feel like the attention to detail was amazing and every scene with the ship in the ocean could have been a painting and the ending was perfect! Now we need a sequel!

[Full Reaction] Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003)

One of the better films of the 2000s. The novels are incredible, too. A shame they didn't make any more with Crowe and Bettany.

Thanks for watching this. One of my all time favorite movies. 👍

Fantastic reaction!

One of my favorite things about this movie is that there are several moments when enormous amounts of background information are revealed in just a few sentences. Example: When Blakney is injured, the Captain refers to him as Lord Blakney. And the Doctor mentions that Capt. Jack was friends with the boy’s father. Jack says Blakney’s father would have understood about his son’s injury, but his mother on the other hand, maybe not so much! So the kid is actually a Lord. His father probably died in Navy service, which is why such a young boy is already a Lord in his own right. And we understand that at some point, Jack will probably have to face a “Lady Blakney” who is the kid’s mother, and deal with how she feels about her son losing an arm … or worse if the Doctor doesn’t succeed at fixing him up. And that all demonstrates how in the British Navy, even nobles who serve have to show respect to higher military ranks, like a Captain, while the Captain in a subtle way also shows a little extra respect to a Lord, even when the Lord is a child under his command. And all of that makes it even more cool that Blakney is such a nice kid, so thoughtful, kind, and humble.

Incidentally, when they sailed through a major storm in pursuit of the French ship (when the poor British sailor was lost overboard) they were sailing through the Strait of Magellan at the southern tip of South America. The weather was so notoriously bad (and, I'm told, is very similar today) that it was one of the most hazardous passages in the world at the time. Ships were lost regularly while sailing through this body of water.

In the scene in which the sailor received a dozen lashes or so, the Commander was being amazingly lenient by the standards of the day. It was common for a sailor or soldier to receive 1000 lashes or more. Since it was possible for 100 lashes to kill a man, the man to receive the lashes would receive as many lashes as he could handle at a time (usually the whipping stopped when he collapsed). He would then be nursed back to health for two or three days and then the whipping would resume until he'd received his full sentence of however many lashes. There's a reason why the Americans used to call British regulars "bloody backs", after all.....

If you keep watching this types of movies you’ll become quiet knowledgeable of history.

A word about why there are all these kids on a warship. You have to keep in mind that at this time European social classes were divided along strict hereditary lines. The young boys in the blue coats are midshipmen. Most likely they are the sons of noblemen and/or high ranking naval officers. They are in training to become future officers of the Royal Navy. The fact that they were giving orders to grown men despite being mere children was not only not a hindrance, it was considered an important reminder to the low-born sailors that those of the ruling class were their social superiors 𝙧𝙚𝙜𝙖𝙧𝙙𝙡𝙚𝙨𝙨 of their age. Of course, for practical reasons, even the Royal Navy would only carry that so far. A midshipman might rank a common sailor, but all but the most highly placed midshipmen still had to pass their examination to earn the king's commission as an officer. There were some cases of boys who became midshipmen before the age of twelve, who never did pass their examination and were stuck as midshipmen for thirty years or more.

You'd asked if there was food on the Galapagos, which brings to mind a funny story. The Galapagos tortoises are famous, but it took a long time to bring one back to Britain, because they were apparently so delicious, every time a crew captured some, they'd eat all of them before getting them all the way back.

I can't access this Full Length. It leads me to Vimeo which then says I don't have permission to access this video, even if I sign into my Vimeo account.
