Great movie, but kind of romanticizes life at sea.


Mutiny on the bounty is a great movie to watch to get a sense of life at sea. Not the Mel Gibson movie, though it was actually good, but I'm talking the 1962 movie with Marlon Brando. But the problem is that they over exaggerate Captain Bligh's casual cruelty though.



Even the Russian movie Battleship Potemkin is good at reflecting how awful life was at sea.


Hmm, maybe a writeup at some point on the Bounty would be cool. But I want to do my next one on the Controversy around the SU-57 and the Chinese J-20 and the Iranian Qahar 313 which is a scam. But I'm scared to in a way because there are some people on this board that probably understand 5th generation fighters better then me.
