The captain is more or less the same as that of Captain Haya in Moby Dick who swears to chase after the beluga who broke his leg. I think it originated from being ambushed by a French ship in the fog at the beginning. The captain was very upset and vowed to defend his country to the death. The determination of interest was aroused, so desperately trying to get rid of the French privateer became the main line of development. There are several truths that are very good. The two powers are the lesser of harms. Even the navy must learn to disguise, and actively prepare for wars before fighting. Many exercises are the key to the final victory. When the command is improper and the morale is greatly reduced, it is easy to mutiny. The punishment of whipping is a common thing on the ships of the 18th century. The sea is always harsh. Sleeping in hammocks under the turbid deck, there are livestock stalls next to it, everyone is crowded in At the same time, there is no personal space at all (except for the captain and the doctor). The chances of being hit by flying wood chips during naval battles are very high, so there are many people who lack arms and legs.
What amazes me the most is the craftsmanship of the carpenters. The battered ship will look brand new in a few days, and the model of the enemy ship made by the sailor who has American relatives is really too detailed. It seems that there are still some at sea. A lot of free time, the ship in a bottle is the idle work of a certain German captain.
This film rekindled my interest in nautical subjects.
