Cruelty and Mutiny
18 December 2020
In 1787, in Portsmouth, the rude Captain William Bligh (Trevor Howard) of the British ship Bounty is assigned to travel to Tahiti to transplant breadfruit to bring to England. Bligh is jealous of the aristocratic 1st Lt. Fletcher Christian (Marlon Brando) and along the journey, his tyrannic and cruel behavior lead to a showdown with the rebel Seaman John Mills (Richard Harris) and other seamen. But on the voyage of returning to England, his savage attitudes kill crewmembers, forcing Fletcher to lead a mutiny to overthrow Bligh. What will be the consequences of this action?

"Mutiny on the Bounty" is an adventure with magnificent performance of Trevor Howard in the role of a despicable captain of a British ship. His duel with Marlon Brando is memorable an unforgettable. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "O Grande Motim" ("The Great Mutiny")
