HMS Bounty sails for Tahiti by way of Cape Horn and into movie lore. Charles Laughton portrays Captain Bligh, a seafaring monster ruling with the law of fear. Clark Gable is first officer Fletcher Christian, whose will to obey erodes under Bligh's tyranny. And Franchot Tone plays idealistic midshipman Byam, torn by his allegiance to both. That all three portrayals are vividly memorable is accented by the fact that for the only time in Oscar history, three stars from the same film were Best Actor nominees. Grandly filmed, MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY captured the 1935 Best Picture Academy Award.
