Play elegant

A ship is an independent kingdom, and the captain is the king. He wants to care for his people and encourage them to fight. The most important thing is the captain's decision, which represents the life and glory of a boatman.

The naval battles of the 19th century had not given up on the docking station. That era belonged to the heroes of the sea, which belonged to courage and cunning.

This film is full of energy. Two battleships are chasing and fighting on the vast ocean. It requires courage, wisdom, and trust between people.

What deserves praise is the soundtrack of this film. The film makes good use of classical music, which not only conforms to the background of that era, but also reflects people's hearts on the battlefield filled with gunpowder. The captain and the doctor are close friends, and they are expressed in the form of "confidantes", as if they are also playing this game abroad. Now there is an ensemble for "Red Cliff", but I don't think the ensemble of this film is harmonious and warm. Also, when the doctor went to the island to collect specimens, the soundtrack was Baja's cello. Although there was no ensemble of the two, it made people understand the friendship between the two of them with very different personalities.

    The pure men's war song of the great voyage era, the soundtrack is particularly impressive.

    A movie of pure men, a legend of the nautical age. ps, the translation of this title is indeed in place. A leaf of battleship in the raging waves, many men in the battleship.

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.

    Nehemiah Slade, Able Seaman: [he snatches the telescope to see for himself] What, no women? It ain't natural.

  • 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!
