This movie is one of the reasons why movies were invented. You watch it every night, and hope it lasts forever every time. Combined with one of the most exquisite pieces of music ever, which makes your heart ache and makes you want to learn violin just to be able to play it.
Dann solltest du anfangen Geige zu lernen egal wie alt du bist. Ich nach über 20 Jahren wieder angefangen die Great Highland bagpipe zu lernen. Es erfreut mein Herz aber nicht meine Freundin.😉😉🙂
I was watching this movie around this time a year ago. During this scene, my wife rushed out of the bathroom yelling "I'm pregnant!" It was not planned lol but she is sooo loved. So when I hear this song I tear up thinking about the moment I knew I was going to be a dad.
I heard Russell Crowe has expressed interest in making a sequel. shame Hollywood is making sequels for crap movies and not continuing masterpieces like this.
I don't know, I kind of like having just the one perfect film. It's a little jewel in and of itself. We don't see the beginning or the end of Aubrey and Maturin's relationship-- they're just out there, sailing forever.
The first time I ever heard this song was on the way home from rescuing and adopting my boxer (dog). I fell in love with this song, so much so, that when they announced that the composer was Luigi Boccherini, I turned to the dog and said, "That's your name." He seemed to smile, and that's how Louie came to be. 😊💕🐕
+JoAnn Aileen Jackson (jojo) indeed he did, however although he appears to be playing it here there were profesional players out of shot that followed him. That is how Crowe appears to actually be playing the music you hear. ..... I can play the piano but you would never want to hear it unless you were very dunk.
Lol!!! Yes it definitely is edited. It would be fabulous to get this arrangement. Kind of a "dueling banjos" type piece. Would be very fun to play...Bacharinis is a little tooooo technical for me. Im a bit rusty.
This film was made so well that I don't think there is a need for another film or trilogy, it is as good as can be and in this time it would be hard to do what they managed.
When you read a book and in your head you create all the characters, and all the story, and then one day you hear that some one is going to make a movie about it, and then you go to watch it, and you say, woooo it can't be more perfect than this, it's like if they were reading my whole mind. This movie it's that perfect, so spot on. Something like that happened to me with David Suchet's Poirot.
I thought Crowe was very good as Jack, but Paul Bettany was all wrong for Maturin who is a small olive skinned character, and also no mention was made of Maturin's man function in the books which is intellegence agent. I also wasn't really convinced by a Hobbit as Bonden, I imagined him as a bigger, more burly man altogether, but Killick was perfect
Definitely a top five film for me. Russell Crowe did his finest acting in this. In fact, I would say all parties involved did, especially Peter Weir (direction wise). This is their Magnum Opus. This film should be hailed as a critical artistic achievement of the 21st century imo.
+ebannaw Russell Crowe has expressed interest in continuing the series. The HMS Surprise model is still in studio storage, O'Brien's books are the perfect film script, and Boccherini's music readily available for the score. All that's needed is funding and a director!
+Robert Olin Actually, its not a model. The ship is at the maritime museum in San Diego, Cal. Ive walked the decks. It was donated by the studio on the condition that they keep her seaworthy and loan her back if the studio makes another film.
I love this film but Im happy they never made a sequel. A possible sequel could be great or it could be terrible, it should live on with its legacy of greatness intact.
This warm-hearted tune is most recognised today from the final scene of the film Master and Commander starring Russell Crowe. The original Boccherini quintet is titled 'Night Music of the Streets of Madrid' and depicts the bustling streets of night-time Madrid.
Absolutely sad! I wished the movie would have gone on to another Aubrey/Maturin adventure! I could have seated for another 2.5 hours of cinematic wonder!!
Yeah, Crow said that he practiced violin religiously for the part. He said himself "I can't say I claimed the instrument but I was OK." He also said it was the hardest thing he ever had to learn for a film.
You should try reading the novel, the first one at least. When I first bought it, it took me a while to get past the first 50 pages... but man, after that, I couldn´t stop reading. You can´t realize how perfectly Russel Crowe nailed Jack Aubrey until you read the book; words cannot describe it.
such a happy tune and hearkens me back to a happier time when my life was good and my friends were close. this movie brings it all back and this song most of all
"Name a shrub after me. Something prickly and hard to eradicate." "A shrub? Nonsense! I shall name a new species of tortoise after you: Testudo Aubreii!"
My favorite movie ever... Watched it about four times already. I always have that innocent boy's smile at the end of the movie which is this scene. Truly a perfect movie for men and boys. I think Aubrey and Maturin are the kinds of men we all aspired to be when we were boys and still do as men... Such a dreamy movie. :') So sad there's (still?) no sequel. :( This needs to be a series. I have to play this duet with a cellist one of these days...
LA MUSICA NOTTURNA DELLE STRADE DI MADRID. No. 6, Op.30 Composed by Luigi Boccherini. Second part was the part in the movie. Madrid night music, written by an Italian in a movie directed by an Australian, about an Englishman, played by a Kiwi, chasing a Frenchman in the south seas. Funded by an American studio. You dont get more global then that.
in the book the English ship was chasing an American one hehe... but they change it... since the americans couldn't possibly imagine beeing beaten by an Englishman
+Crazzydudu Yeah, I heard that. The studio was afraid of how Americans would react if the film depicted them as "the other guys." Funny because you hear all of these fucking annoying ass conservatives and alt-righters going on and on about how everyone's too sensitive, saying shit like, "TRIGGERRRRED, go to your SAFE SPACE!!11" when actually, they are the exact type of person who would have taken extreme offense and been up in arms at an adversarial (and historically accurate) depiction of Americans.
@@obi-wankenobi1233 He was born in Wellington, NZ but he has spent most of his life in Australia (his family moved when he was 4 years old). He is a NZ citizen, though. So technically, he is a Kiwi living in Australia.
Master and Commander has produced possibly my favourite music to this day, listening to the background songs composed with what must be only brilliance just makes the perfectness of the film it self even better.
For me one of the best movie about seamanship. Soon after the illuminism, it makes possible that a captain and the doctor are able to play cassic music, that the doctor and the young boy are a bit as Darwin. The surgery skill, the war tecnology, the strength of those men, the fact that young rich boys was boarded to learn... all perfectly described in this movie!!!!
This is such a wonderful scene and song. I wish I had enough money to rent them to sit in my living room and just play a few song and banter. It would be awesome
Amazing movie. Honestly makes me wish I was a sea-goin' man, couple centuries ago. Seeing the world, feeling the wind, the baking sun, the salt spray of the sea, the camaraderie, the drunken sailor songs, the brief romantic encounters with women in different ports... *sigh* What a dreamy life! It would sure beat the hell out of the boring-ass, 21st-century suburban life I live now.
yeah indeed. scorbut, deseases, low standard of medicine aboard, maybe war campaign including battle, getting hit or falling down the mast will most probably mean lethal injury, low income, no ensurance in case of injury, no pension, syphillis desease and herpes thanks to a brothel visit from the last harbour stop,... its what our literature uses to do very often: romanticize the past, like ancient time, medieval age, napoleon era. I never ever want to be a seaman in that time. certainly not.
Pickem Melanie I'm sure it was a very hard life, but still a time period and profession I'd love to experience. It's funny, anytime someone says, "I would love to have lived back in some other time," there is ALWAYS, without fail, some pedantic naysayer who comes along to say how TERRIBLE it was back then, and how it's stupid to not want to live in present day. YAWN.
***** I would gladly give up internet, electricity, cars, all that shit to experience a time when the planet was purer, less polluted, less controlled and mapped out. I know it had its flaws and drawbacks, but I think the world is obviously way more fucked up now than it was back then, and all the new technology in the world does not outweigh the negative aspects of life today.
Think so? Nope, it was way more 'fucked up' back then. The majority of the sailors were 'pressed' into service, so they were farmers and tradesmen unlucky enough to take the Kings/Queens shilling in a tavern and then woke up with a bad hangover, aboard ship, sailing on a year to 6 year voyage, and maybe, maybe, make it back home at some point to hopefully find their family, if they hadn't been thrown into debtors prison! Of course if you had lost a limb, or were blinded, etc, etc you got dumped on a pier to be a beggar the rest of you miserable life. Most of the 'officers' were children of senior officers, or sons of wealthy families who bought their commissions and knew little about running a ship, except by brutality. The captain was the law and God. If you happened to have a good one, life might be bearable, but a bad one made life hell for all. We may complain about a lot of shit today, but in comparison, most of us have it pretty good, unless we make bad choices. Back then, only the rich (and the criminals), had any control of their lives
"Quick's the word and sharp's the action. After all surprise is on our side. " Gee, I love that kind of talk. That 's what Ensign Parker would always say.
This music makes my hair stand on end!. As others have said, one of the the best and most underrated films ever made. The battle scenes are breathtaking. Thank you to all involved in its making.
FANTASTIC. Believe it or not I first heard this in an Al Pacino film in a 1980 film 'Cruising' and waited decades for the internet to finally reveal the name of the piece.
I was a modern Jack Tar but only 'beat to quarters' in exercises and when off duty I used to love going topside and watching the sea which I admit wasn't often.
The whole series is fantastic, I've read them all at least three times,at every reading you get another layer out of the characters. O'BRIEN was a genius, RIP.
I may not be a music expert, but I would swear that when Paul Bettany begins playing the cello in this scene, what you are actually hearing is a viola.
It's amazing how real they look at playing, they are actually so close, that you only realize the playback, when he stops the guitarposition with the violin and the sound goes just straight on
Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany both learned to play violin and cello respectively, and actually played in all of their scenes together, but their performances were dubbed over with professionals.
I love it when lucky Jack says "how lucky we are to be alive in such a modern age" (or similar) it's amazing that shipping changed so little for 400 years or more. If you had been able to show them what the next hundred would bring they would think you were crazy lol
Wonderful casting : wonderful music. Make sure you read all the books. Poor O'Brian felt death at the doorstep in his later books. The death of the Coxswain was the last gasp.
There is something really sublime about the melody--and anyone who has sat down to try to play this knows it has a deceptively simple sound but hard to nail every golden one of those notes
The fiercest battle was just a piece of cake for the tea to make life less boring. What they really enjoyed was playing music and studying biology specimens. How marvelous! What a life! I want to be a captain.
This movie is one of the reasons why movies were invented. You watch it every night, and hope it lasts forever every time. Combined with one of the most exquisite pieces of music ever, which makes your heart ache and makes you want to learn violin just to be able to play it.
Pretty much. Absolutely satisfying symmetry.

Absolute never tire of listening to this music
Movies were invented to give fire to people's hearts. As with any form of art.
It's June 2020, and this movie is still one of the most underrated films in modern cinema. Simply the best
Time can change🎉🎉
One of my fav films of all time. They did a great job on the historical accuracy as well.
Released at the same time as return of the king. It would have blown everything else out of the water, pun intended, if it wasn't up against LotR.
I was watching this movie around this time a year ago. During this scene, my wife rushed out of the bathroom yelling "I'm pregnant!" It was not planned lol but she is sooo loved. So when I hear this song I tear up thinking about the moment I knew I was going to be a dad.
Congratulations! I hope the baby and your wife are healthy and happy.
"Well Stephen, the bird's flightless?"
"Yes."
"It's not going anywhere."

One of my favorite lines. I burst out with a hearty chuckle.
....simple the best
"Subject to the requirements of the service..."
Do you want to call that raggedy-ass Napoleon your king?
It's a colossal shame that they never made a sequel to this movie.
I heard Russell Crowe has expressed interest in making a sequel. shame Hollywood is making sequels for crap movies and not continuing masterpieces like this.

I'd recommend the books, you will not be disappointing. Fair seas!
Starkiller Games 2 hard 2 read
I didn't know it came from books, now I must read them!
A beautiful song to a beautiful ending in a beautiful film.
One of my all time favourite movies, wish they made a sequel. There is plenty more books in the series they could adapt into another film.
Thanks to bocherinni and Madrid
Well said.
not a song, its a musical composition. no one is singing.
the song the are playing is called ‘Night Music of the Streets of Madrid’
String music goes with sailing ships almost as if the two were meant for each other! Nothing but wood and strings, and the wind to carry it.
Brilliant simile!
+Robert Olin BRAVO
Excellent saying.
Brilliantly said
Yes, well said and very poetic. Also have to admire the officers and crew of Nelson's Royal Navy - formidable and brave men.
The first time I ever heard this song was on the way home from rescuing and adopting my boxer (dog). I fell in love with this song, so much so, that when they announced that the composer was Luigi Boccherini, I turned to the dog and said, "That's your name." He seemed to smile, and that's how Louie came to be. 😊💕🐕
Russell Crowe actually learned to play the violin for this role. He is already a talented musician, singer...

And for role in "Romper stomper" he really learned to hate vietnamese :D
For sure they were trained with some lessons of playing violin and cello in order to fake it as best as possible, I'm sure the sound is edited 🙂
"and William?"
"Sir?"
"Beat to quarters"
"Very good sir."
Soused 'ogs face, which it is your favourite Sir
Here we go again.
Never a tune you can dance to
The bird is flightless Stephan
Its not going anywhere😁
i cannot express how much i want a trilogy
Would have to start with a second movie first
This film was made so well that I don't think there is a need for another film or trilogy, it is as good as can be and in this time it would be hard to do what they managed.
@@thatman8341They can just follow the books one by one like the Hornblower series
Russell Crowe would agree with you.
There are 21 novels, this movie used three so there must be 7 movies
When you read a book and in your head you create all the characters, and all the story, and then one day you hear that some one is going to make a movie about it, and then you go to watch it, and you say, woooo it can't be more perfect than this, it's like if they were reading my whole mind.

I agree this is Crowe's best work.
Critically underrated movie. Great acting, plot, cinematography and it's the most realistic movie of that period I've ever seen.
@ josh
I know, right?!
It's not underrated it just came out at the same time as Lord of the Rings Return of the King, it didn't gain as much popularity during the time
@anthonytopalian4586 yea guess it's just a shame it wasn't more popular. So many people tell me they haven't seen it when I bring it up
One of the best films of the past decade.

Women hate that all men want is to beat to quarters and pursue the Acheron
🤣💯
Loved this film. The musical coaching for the actors is excellent. The actors actually look like they are playing (for once!)
I'm sure I read or heard that Crowe learned to play
They both learned to play and I think it was even intended to end up on the soundtrack but in the end it was dubbed over with professional recordings.
Yeah, Crow said that he practiced violin religiously for the part. He said himself "I can't say I claimed the instrument but I was OK." He also said it was the hardest thing he ever had to learn for a film.

such a happy tune and hearkens me back to a happier time when my life was good and my friends were close. this movie brings it all back and this song most of all

No matter what mood I'm in this movie always manages to make me smile.
what a friggin good movie!
That's how you end a movie about friendship.
Thats how a movie should and at all
This is such a wonderful scene and song. I wish I had enough money to rent them to sit in my living room and just play a few song and banter. It would be awesome
Extraordinary climate,sounds of that era,this movie will be recognize with the years.
Just love this closing piece of music, asked my wife to play this at my funeral!
Beautiful, do you happen to know what it’s called?

Amazing movie. Honestly makes me wish I was a sea-goin' man, couple centuries ago.

What a pity they've never made a sequel. Such a good movie.

This movie is so amazing. Its like a microscopic potrayal of life in general. Love the friendship between these two.
This movie would rank number one as films in dire need of a sequel.
Absolute crime that we never got more films about the adventures of Jack Aubrey and his men.
This music makes my hair stand on end!. As others have said, one of the the best and most underrated films ever made. The battle scenes are breathtaking. Thank you to all involved in its making.
A great combination of music and visuals. The new incarnation of immortal classics.
One of my favorite films of all time
OMG! Why do I love this piece so much.
Even after a Decade, there is nothing comparable to this Film out there
Beautiful doesn't begin to describe this film.
La plus belle fin qu'on puisse rêver pour un grand film !
ALCHIMUS FIFRELIN en fait j'avais pensé la même chose...
FANTASTIC. Believe it or not I first heard this in an Al Pacino film in a 1980 film 'Cruising' and waited decades for the internet to finally reveal the name of the piece.
La rude vie de la mer, et la délicatesse de Boccherini... Ajoutons une mise en scène soignée, des acteurs géniaux... A voir !
I love this movie uniforms are quite accurate
What a piece! I never knew violin can be played with a touch of guitar to the perfection.
I love this piece of music.
I was a modern Jack Tar but only 'beat to quarters' in exercises and when off duty I used to love going topside and watching the sea which I admit wasn't often.
This movie gets me every time! Love it!
One of those scenes in movies that really makes you wish you were there.
Great film. I wish there was more like it.
My favorite ending of a film.....EVER. There I've said it.
The whole series is fantastic, I've read them all at least three times,at every reading you get another layer out of the characters. O'BRIEN was a genius, RIP.
I may not be a music expert, but I would swear that when Paul Bettany begins playing the cello in this scene, what you are actually hearing is a viola.
+Darren O'Connor Can't be... Violas can't be heard beyond the edge of the stage.
I keep saying that it is a violin! It certainly does not sound like a cello.
No war,no politic,no hat only music and love
It's amazing how real they look at playing, they are actually so close, that you only realize the playback, when he stops the guitarposition with the violin and the sound goes just straight on
It's a testament to the power of the scene and score that we don't recognize this on first (fifth?) viewing.
Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany both learned to play violin and cello respectively, and actually played in all of their scenes together, but their performances were dubbed over with professionals.
I love it when lucky Jack says "how lucky we are to be alive in such a modern age" (or similar) it's amazing that shipping changed so little for 400 years or more. If you had been able to show them what the next hundred would bring they would think you were crazy lol
Wonderful casting : wonderful music. Make sure you read all the books. Poor O'Brian felt death at the doorstep in his later books. The death of the Coxswain was the last gasp.
Extraordinary music for a masterpiece of a film . And I'm French. :p
eugspit I agree my French friend, we have a lot of history together and mutual respect 🇬🇧🇫🇷
rob sim But the music is Spanish
Jm Cr oh ok bro I was on about the film in general bud.
I read all the books and thoroughly enjoyed them
Well, im beating that replay button like im beating to quarters lol
The perfect movie.
Love this little song. Can't get it out of my head.
Love this scene lol 'oh and William, be to quarters'
I literally cry when I hear this song
There is something really sublime about the melody--and anyone who has sat down to try to play this knows it has a deceptively simple sound but hard to nail every golden one of those notes
I hear You :)
j'adore ce passage.... dommage qu'il n'ont pas poursuivis l'aventure..... les livres sont juste incroyable ❤❤❤❤
Grande Boccherini, grande musica per un grande film.
Wish they had made a sequel to Master and Commander Far Side of the World.
Song used in season two of Sanditon. Absolutely stirring
O'Brian, Weir, Crowe y Bocherini. Fantástico cóctel.
One of the best movies ever. Nr.2 after Das Boot.
My appreciation was greatly lessened once I realized that the sound of Jack strumming his violin carries on for thirty seconds after he stops
For you military types, hands up who can hear "Beating to Quarters"?
What a great way to put it. What a wonderful movie.
L. Boccherini's delightful piece called "Night music in the streets of Madrid. The drum and the retirement"
Very tastefully done sea adventure, and the music is beautifully done also. Thank you.
