The Bounty is a 1984 British historical drama film directed by Roger Donaldson, starring Mel Gibson and Anthony Hopkins, and produced by Bernard Williams with Dino De Laurentiis as executive producer. It is the fifth film version of the story of the mutiny on the Bounty. The screenplay was by Robert Bolt and it was based on the book Captain Bligh and Mr. Christian (1972) by Richard Hough. It was made by Dino De Laurentiis Productions and distributed by Orion Pictures Corporation and Thorn EMI Screen Entertainment. The music score was composed by Vangelis and the cinematography was by Arthur Ibbetson.
The film is set as flashbacks from the court martial at Greenwich of Commanding Lieutenant William Bligh (Anthony Hopkins) for the loss of HMS Bounty to mutineers led by his friend Fletcher Christian (Mel Gibson), during its expedition to Tahiti to gather breadfruit pods for transplantation in the Caribbean.
Bligh sets out from Great Britain in December 1787, electing to sail the Bounty west round the tip of South America in an attempt to use the expedition to fulfill an ambition to circumnavigate the globe. The attempt to round Cape Horn fails due to harsh weather, and the ship is obliged to take the longer eastern route. Finally arriving in Tahiti in October 1788, Bligh finds that due to the delays, the wind is against them for a quick return journey and they must stay on the island for four months longer than planned.

The familiar story of Lieutenant Bligh, whose cruelty leads to a mutiny on his ship.

MGM - 1984
Lieutenant William Bligh (Anthony Hopkins) tries to keep his crew in control. Anthony Hopkins and Mel Gibson are obviously easy to notice. But see if you can spot a young Daniel Day-Lewis, Liam Neeson, and Dexter Fletcher (who by the way is 1 of the 4 main characters from Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels).

Like in the story of Jezebel
We’ll have them bounty…might as well
No food to eat no want to be in the ghetto
No bed for sleep nothing to rally around so far
So long you live and so far you fly!
You better get your search out for I, you better get it for I Look like a super star flying high, soldier for Rabbi
(Bridge)
For my space on the hemispheres
I shall play music for the love of it!
And the crimes have brought to those
