A man, A captain, A leader-about fighting for the front in the raging sea

Jack Aubrey is a character with a strong old-fashioned heroic color. He came from a military academy. He was born and died with the legendary Nelson of Great Britain. He has rich sailing experience and is even the only person on the ship who has received traditional fencing training.

He insisted on the old and strict discipline concept-everyone needs to be ruled, power control is needed, and a majestic leader is needed. Jack called the cringing trainee officer into the captain's cabin and taught him by example: officers don't need to be friends with sailors, you have power and exercise your power. The trainee officer nodded slightly hesitantly, yes, sir, power. Jack shook his head slightly. He was still disappointed with the trainee officer in his heart. He was not a leader. Jack will not understand the pain in the trainee officer's heart, nor will the trainee know how to use authority like Jack.

So in a quiet night, a pale and timid face sank in the water, and those who could not escape their inner demons would eventually destroy themselves with their own hands.

"Lucky jack" is not only a pronoun of leadership, he is also the spiritual pillar of the soldiers.

Jack said that double damage is better than choosing the lighter, so he personally cut the rope of the life raft and watched the very popular sailor disappeared in the wind and waves. This is the trade-off and decisiveness that the leader must be a little later. , There will be more people buried in the storm, cruel and realistic.

But undoubtedly Jack’s wisdom is based on old customs. When the doctor suggested that the soldiers should be banned from drinking to prevent drunkenness and rioting, Jack did not hesitate to refute that, I know better than you how to manage them, you want to deprive them of enjoyment. Right for hundreds of years? I can't stand the second mutiny.

Jack, played by Russell crow, has a full face. When I first saw it, I really thought that such an old man was boring, but as the movie progressed, the captain's image became more and more plump, Jack began to shine, and the gully on his face followed With the ups and downs of facial expressions, and every path full of charm, I couldn't help but have the illusion that I saw a male lion.

Nelson’s anecdote seems to be a reflection of Jack. For ordinary people, such words are really absurd, but when you put it on a hero, especially an old-style hero, it becomes exciting-I don’t need a jacket, thinking of it for me Fighting for my motherland and honor, I feel extremely warm.

However, with the changes and development of generations, the old heroes represented by Jack will become fewer and fewer, and eventually disappear, and even heroes will become fairy-tale existences. Heroes will no longer be popular in the new century of equality and freedom. In my heart, there will still be a heroic feeling that is hard to give up, so we choose to find comfort in the world of movies.

Heroes match beauties, the law that has not changed since ancient times, but the sea of ​​anger has completely abandoned beauties for the first time. The directors took great risks to shoot a pure male movie with male hormones, and the directors even more unkindly. After a few seconds, the camera was on a girl holding an umbrella, the only woman in the whole movie. Jack was obviously shaken. He was a man and couldn't help but look at it a few more times, although he was forced to turn his head away in the end. Then there was a voice sounded: This is a royal warship, not a brothel!

Of course, there is also Jack’s toast, to our wives and lovers, I hope they never see each other, this is Jack's man-like humor.

It is a dangerous thing to make a movie without love at the moment, let alone a bloody movie of pure men. It is very likely to lose female audiences and some male audiences. Because everyone likes the handsome face of the male protagonist and the sexy thighs of the female protagonist, for this, the director's courage should be commended and revered.

What we are missing right now are all the positive qualities shown in the movie. We have been cowardly for too long, lacking blood for too long, and staying away from heroes for too long.

Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World quotes

  • Faster Doudle, Able Seaman: [as he examines the Galapagos through his telescope] I can't see any women. Just ducks and lizards.

  • Dr. Stephen Maturin: Jack, have you forgotten your promise?

    Capt. Jack Aubrey: Subject to the requirements of the service. I cannot in all conscience delay for the sake of an iguana or giant peccary. Fascinating, no doubt, but of no immediate application.

    Dr. Stephen Maturin: There is, I think, an opportunity here to serve both our purposes. As I understand it, this is a long, thin island. You need to sail around it to continue your voyage. I could walk across it. I'd be on the other side...

    Capt. Jack Aubrey: I have known you to spend hours staring into a deserted bird's nest.

    Dr. Stephen Maturin: I could walk briskly, pausing only to take the most important measurements. Making valuable discoveries that could help advance our knowledge of natural history.

    Capt. Jack Aubrey: If wind and tide had been against us, I should have said yes. They're not. I'm obliged to say no.

    Dr. Stephen Maturin: Oh, I see. I see. So, after all this time in your service, I must simply content myself to form part of this belligerent expedition. Hurry past inestimable wonders, bent solely on destruction. I shall say nothing of the corruption of power or its abuse...

    Capt. Jack Aubrey: You forget yourself, Doctor.

    Dr. Stephen Maturin: No, Jack. No. You've forgotten yourself. You see, for my part, I look upon a promise as binding.

    Capt. Jack Aubrey: The promise was conditional.

    Dr. Stephen Maturin: It never occurred to me...

    Capt. Jack Aubrey: I command a king's ship, not a private yacht! WE DO NOT HAVE TIME FOR YOUR DAMNED HOBBIES, SIR!
