Movie synopsis
In the historical suspense thriller, DAMN THE DEFIANT!, Alec Guiness stars as Crawford, the captain of the H.M.S. Defiant. The ship embarks on a voyage to battle invading French pirates, but megalomaniac Lt. Scott-Padget (Dirk Bogarde) has other plans. The violent Scott-Padget goes head to head with Crawford on disciplinary issues, and when Crawford is injured during a battle with the French, Scott-Padget ruthlessly takes command. It's up to seaman Vizard (Anthony Quayle) to steer up a mutiny and liberate the Defiant from the egotistical Scott-Padget. Based on the novel, MUTINY, by Frank Tilsley, DAMN THE DEFIANT! is an accurate recreation of 18th-century nautical warfare. Director Lewis Gilbert spares no expense on details--the elaborate sets and lavish costumes are of the utmost believability, making the film essential viewing for any history lover.

Great Tale

Yes, I would recommend this product to a friend.

This is a great action/adventure with an emotional overtone. The action is
very well portrayed; the charterization is excellent. Both Alec Guiness and Dirk Bogard play convincing roles which are timeless in their scope. I recommend this to teens on up to adults of any age who like a good tale based upon historical facts. It is a movie that one can view over and over again.

Alec Guinness in "Damn the Defiant!"

Yes, I would recommend this product to a friend.

An excellent adventure movie set in the Royal Navy of Nelson's Era. A period piece gone to sea, in which Alec Guinness shows the world once again how fine an actor can be in a part that is inspiring.
Bon voyage.
