Yes, far superior to the Mel Gibson/Anthony Hopkins version many years later! In this (1962) version, you REALLY hate Capt. Bligh - a tribute to the great Trevor Howard's acting! Also, I think it may have been more accurate historically, but Bligh's incredible feat of seamanship (accurately piloting a small boat over 3000 miles with just a sextant under intolerable conditions) was not given the credit it deserved.

I'm wondering if the new DVD will make it to the USA??

Amazon, certainly have it listed on Region 1.

Bligh was a good seaman - but a rotten Captain and leader. He was later appointed Governor of New South Wales and he had another mutiny on his hands there.
