Movies that truly reflect the naval battles of the 19th century

On the whole, this film is a very good movie.
The ups and downs of the plot design in the storyline not only reflect the exciting and surprisingly difficult naval battles of the 19th century, but also show the coincidence that people are not as good as the sky; they also have human wisdom, brotherhood, courage, and responsibility.
In terms of details, we have seen that the film is a good representation of the technical level of navigation in the 19th century, the working conditions of seafarers, and the details of naval battles are also well grasped. There are even more detailed descriptions of medical skills. What I like most is the cuteness who saw the junior naval trainees turning around three times in order to get a good wind.
At the same time, the movie shows people's yearning for unknown seas and their desire to solve natural puzzles. Only if people possess this spirit can civilization progress.
Okay, the official article is finished, so let's gossip.
The French warship that rivals the protagonist is called technologically advanced, with streamlined hulls and long-range cannons, which disguise themselves like the protagonist, and then suddenly attack, and finally the cannons can't beat the people and jump to help. It has lost the style of the British Imperial Navy, but then again, the British Imperial Navy was born as a pirate, and it’s a tradition to go hand-to-hand.
The navy trainee grew up very handsome, and he must be handsome when he grows up. It is a pity that he broke his arm at such a young age, but he was very brave in the final battle, and he must be a copy of Nelson in the future.
There are a lot of obscure navy jokes in the film, and the ones that don't understand are really cold. I watched it for a long time before I understood it. Oh, I still have to learn English~~~~·

Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World quotes

  • Capt. Jack Aubrey: England is under threat of invasion, and though we be on the far side of the world, this ship is our home. This ship *is* England.

  • Capt. Jack Aubrey: Right lads, now, I know there's not a faint heart among you, and I know you're as anxious as I am to get into close action. But we must bring them right up beside us before we spring this trap. That will test our nerve, and discipline will count just as much as courage. The Acheron is a tough nut to crack... more than twice our guns, more than twice our numbers, and they will sell their lives dearly. Topmen, your handling of the sheets to be lubberly and un-navy like. Until the signal calls, you're to spill the wind from our sails, this will bring us almost to a complete stop. Gun crews, you must run out and tie down in double quick time. With the rear wheels removed, you've gained elevation. and without recoil, there'll be no chance for re-load, so gun captains, that gives you one shot from the lardboard battery... one shot only. You'll fire for her mainmast. Much will depend on your accuracy... however... even crippled, she will still be dangerous, like a wounded beast. Captain Howard and the marines will sweep their weather deck with swivel gun and musket fire from the tops. They'll try and even the odds for us before we board. They mean to take us as a prize.

    [all chuckling]

    Capt. Jack Aubrey: And we are worth more to them undamaged. Their greed... will be their downfall. England is under threat of invasion, and though we be on the far side of the world, this ship is our home. This ship, is England. So it's every hand to his rope or gun, quick's the word and sharp's the action. After all... surprise is on our side.

    Crew: Huzzah, huzzah!
