Dialogue Plot
I'm grateful that the script managed not to burden Crowe with Charles Laughton's classic Mutiny on the Bounty outburst, "You call yourselves seamen?"

It’s a shame we don’t quite get a more effective take on Mutiny on the Bounty from Östlund…
Trevor Howard’s unflappable Major Calloway looks back to his doctor in “Brief Encounter” and ahead to Captain Bligh, in the first remake of “Mutiny on the Bounty.”
Gray’s script, written with Ethan Gross, is like a broodingly sincere outer space mashup of Solaris , Apocalypse Now , The Mosquito Coast , The Searchers , First Man and Mutiny on the Bounty .
He achieved his great fame with a series of epics beginning with " The Bridge on the River Kwai " (1957) and continuing with a series of monuments: "Lawrence of Arabia" (1962), " Doctor Zhivago " (1965), "Ryan's Daughter" (1970) and, after a long sojourn with a doomed production of "Mutiny on the Bounty," " A Passage to India " (1984).
