Everything about this version of the historical events is magnificent - except for veracity. Easily the best version ever filmed Laughton and Gable are superb and 80 years on it's still a must see. Many of the great thirties films are so dated that they no longer stand up but not this one and the sea,Tahiti, the Bounty could have been filmed yesterday. It would be great if a new film could show the story from the other perspective of Bligh's magnificent seamanship when cast off the Bounty and Christian's fairly rapid decline. But get this film regardless.

Good interesting movie but unfortunately is not as good as the 1962 version with Trevor Howard and Marlo Brando - Brando playing the ideal foppish upperclass Brit officer class, plus Howard is also very good. - however the 1935 Clark Gable is worth watching, but watch before seeing the later version
