Synopsis

A hardback, collector's edition of the Fox-approved tie-in to the Peter Weir feature film of O'Brian's novel, starring Russell Crowe as Jack Aubrey and Paul Bettany ("A Beautiful Mind") as Stephen Maturin. Based on the early novels in the Aubrey-Maturin series, this film brings the high seas to the silver screen with all the excitement and vivacity of an O'Brian book, and the illustrated companion to the film showcases the high production standards and imagination of the film itself. With access to the film set, Tom McGregor weaves together the story of how the world of O'Brian's books - with its seafaring, swashbuckling adventures, highly drawn characterization and elements of romance and intrigue - was brought vividly to life by Peter Weir (director of "Dead Poets' Society", "Greencard" and "The Truman Show").
