uss frolick Posted August 15, 2017 Share #1 Posted August 15, 2017 Since I bought the first dvd version of the movie, I did not see these extra scenes, which are included in the newest versions of M&C. I wish they had included them in the theatrical release. I hope this is an appropriate place to post them off Youtube Enjoy: thibaultron, Mike Shea, pompey2 and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

druxey Posted August 20, 2017 Share #4 Posted August 20, 2017 Thanks for this, Frolick. I can see why 'Weighing anchor' was cut: the men have their hands on the capstan bars the wrong way around. Should the capstan kick back, many broken wrists would result. In practice, men would hold the bars against their chests and grip the bars knuckles facing away from their bodies. Loved the 'toothworm' episode! uss frolick, MEDDO, Old Collingwood and 3 others 6 Quote Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEDDO Posted August 20, 2017 Share #6 Posted August 20, 2017 Mark, I have always told people at that movie was pretty accurate. After watching the first clip I was able to see the clip from the History Buffs and I'm glad they also think that it was fairly accurate. Overall those two clips are a great find for fans of the movie. uss frolick, druxey, mtaylor and 3 others 6 Quote Michael Shipwrights of Ohio Current Build: ...

ccoyle Posted August 21, 2017 Share #7 Posted August 21, 2017 I hadn't seen either of these before. The History Buffs clip is particularly worth watching. As far as the deleted scenes go, I can see why they were relegated to the cutting room floor -- none of them really advanced the story line to any degree. thibaultron, uss frolick, Canute and 1 other 4 Quote Chris Coyle Greer, South Carolina When you have to shoot, shoot.

Srodbro Posted August 22, 2017 Share #8 Posted August 22, 2017 I've thought it would be neat to have a movie (or a book, even better) that began, oh, thirty years earlier and ended in "THE MUSIC-ROOM in the Governor’s House at Port Mahon". ccoyle, Canute, druxey and 3 others 6 Quote Steve "If they suspect me of intelligence, I am sure it will soon blow over, ha, ha, ha!" -- Jack Aubrey Builds: Yankee Hero, Fannie Gorham, We’re Here, Dapper Tom (x3), New Bedford Whaler, US Brig Lawrence (Niagara), Wyoming (half hull), Fra Berlanga (half hull), Gokstad Viking Ship, Kate Cory, Charles Morgan, Gjoa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Seiler Posted August 22, 2017 Share #10 Posted August 22, 2017 One scene that was cut, modified actually, was the scene where they anchored in Brazil. This was related from one of the SD Maritime docents who was an extra in the film (he played the master at arms). The anchor for the movie was made of fiberglass. They came into the harbor with all the native craft escorting them, then dropped anchor....and it floated... CUT!!!!!! They had to haul it in, add weights to it then do it again. DOH!

uss frolick Posted August 23, 2017 Author Share #11 Posted August 23, 2017 Well MEDDO, the old PBS series "Upstairs Downstairs", the great Victorian TV drama, ended when the wealthy Bellamy Family, set off to visit the new world in the Titanic, where all were lost. Episode one of the newer victorian series, "Downton Abbey", began in 1912, when the Grantham Family learned that their cousins had perished on board the same doomed liner, thus throwing the family into financial chaos. thibaultron, mtaylor, Old Collingwood and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julio Rodriguez Posted November 23, 2019 Share #14 Posted November 23, 2019 I came across this page while doing research on Master and Commander. One of my ancestors was captain of a Spanish ship "La Orue" who fought off English pirates in the South Pacific during the Wars of 1796-1808. Because the real life naval battles of my great-uncle Don Domingo Orue y Mirones took place near the Galapagos Islands in 1801 it compares to the movie quite a bit in location and time period. The only obvious big difference is that it was a Spanish frigate chasing two English pirate ships off the coast of Peru. Here is a link with detailed description of the battle (sorry is in Spanish) which has similar story line like stopping for provisions at the Galápagos, using the small boats to escape the enemy during a qualm, swItching flags to confuse the enemy and a over confident crew against much larger numbers. I will look for an English translation for that page. https://www.todoababor.es/historia/corbeta-orue-contra-corsarios-ingleses/ Jolley Roger, thibaultron, Canute and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popeye2sea Posted November 25, 2019 Share #15 Posted November 25, 2019 In the History Buffs video it mentions that HMS Surprise was sent after USS Norfolk in the Pacific. This is incorrect. The ship that Surprise was sent after was the USS Essex, Captain David Porter commanding. If you ever want to read about that fascinating voyage check out the book by Robert Booth, Mad for Glory- A Heart of Darkness in the War of 1812.
