Description
[Machine Translation] The only stain on the history of the Royal Navy: The truth about the mutiny! Under the fierce battle of the raging battle of the reverse wind and the explosion of the ship's cannon! All the sailors rebel against the harsh orders and merciless punishments! A complete film adaptation of Frank Tisley's best-selling war diary. The film depicts a fictional sailor mutiny that took place around the same time as the actual "Spithead and Noah Mutiny" in the Royal Navy. --In the year 1797, the Royal Navy battleship Defiant is anchored in Spithead Harbor in southern England. Crawford ( Alec Guinness ), the stern but sympathetic captain of the ship, pleads with his superior, the Admiralty, for better conditions for the sailors, but he is not listened to. The sailors were suffering from inadequate living conditions, unstable pay, and poor food. At the same time, the ruthless sub-captain Scott ( Dirk Bogarde ) is forcibly recruiting men in town to relieve the manpower shortage. The crew's dissatisfaction with Scott's harsh labor and relentless punishment is growing, and they have reached their limit. Sailor Vizard (Anthony Quinn) and his crew are secretly recruiting allies and looking for an opportunity to mutiny. The Defiant is ordered to Corsica on an urgent mission, but Crawford and Scott are at odds over the execution of the mission, and a mood of disquiet prevails on board the ship. The French navy shows up, and under Crawford's command, the Defiant is victorious... There is an image distortion at around 1 hour, 10 minutes and 50 seconds after the start of the film. Please note that this is caused by the existing master.
