I saw "Master and Commander: The Far Side Of The World" last Saturday. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Speaking of violinists, as I did last post, Russell Crowe's character, Captain "Lucky" Jack Aubrey, plays the violin.
Crowe has joked that playing the violin is "probably the most difficult stunt I've done" , and says that ' "I have gotten to the point where I know that I can make a beautiful sound," ... Bettany [ship doctor, with whom he plays duets] also studied the cello, but has no such warm feelings for it. "It's a ghastly instrument," he said.'
The rest of the movie was very good too, with great fight scenes and flying cannonballs.
