Join experts from the USS Constitution Museum for a discussion of the cult classic Master & Commander: The Far Side of the World. Ambushed by a powerful French frigate, Captain Jack Aubrey (Russell Crowe) and the crew of HMS Surprise embark on a high seas chase around the world to capture the enemy ship at any cost. Shot on locations including a ship at sea, Master & Commander offers cinema's most accurate portrayal of life and battle in the age of sail. Rated PG-13 for intense battle sequences, related images, and brief language.
