Master and Commander
I saw Master and Commander tonight with friends. I liked it. It was very good. Yes, the "but" is coming.
But it is not what I expected at all. There is much more story and characteresque drama than swashbucklingness. I'm not giving anything away though. Go see it for yourself.
One really important thing that I loved was the music. In fact, "Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis" (composed by Vaughan Williams and performed by The New Queen's Hall Orchestra) was played twice (not in its entirety of course). It was so beautiful with the scenes from the movie and very emotional.
