Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World

home > films > master and commander: the far side of the world

Word is, Crowe knocks it out of the park in this epic seafaring adventure, starring the moody Aussie as the brilliant sea captain who fights off a superior force. The acting, script and special effects are all top-notch. Surprised television viewers, who are used to reading about Crowe engaging in fisticuffs at the slightest provocation, were treated to a kindler, gentler Russell Crowe on Oprah, as he discussed his romantic wedding to Danielle Spencer and the chapel he had specially built for the happy occasion. He even brought Oprah a present of five of his favorite books.
