Master and Commander. It's atmospheric and fun, and I'm sad they didn't make more with that cast.

In 2021 there was some planning/writing done for a prequel, but I don't think anything came of it.

That film is having a bit of a cultural comeback, so there's still hope.

That's good to hear. I haven't read any of the books (not my preferred literary genre) so I didn't have a preconception of the Aubrey character. This sadly left me loving Russell Crow as Aubrey, and I'll have a hard time with anyone else playing him. Crow is 59, now; he might still be able to get away with it.
