Charles Laughton and Clark Gable starred in this 1935 Oscar winning film about rebellion on the high seas. Trevor Howard and Marlon Brando starred in the 1962 sequel. What is the title?

This cinematic tale of rebellion on the high seas is based on the true story of a 1789 mutiny aboard the HMS Bounty. The 1935 film adaptation, starring Charles Laughton as the tyrannical Captain Bligh and Clark Gable as the mutinous Fletcher Christian, was a major critical and commercial success. It garnered eight Academy Award nominations and took home the Oscar for Best Picture. The film's impact was so significant that it led to the creation of the Best Supporting Actor category at the Oscars, as three of its actors were nominated for Best Actor.

The enduring story was brought to the screen again in a lavish 1962 remake. This version starred Trevor Howard as Captain Bligh and Marlon Brando in the role of Fletcher Christian. While the 1962 film is often remembered for its troubled production and Brando's on-set behavior, it remains a notable retelling of the famous mutiny. Both films are based on the novels by Charles Nordhoff and James Norman Hall, which themselves were inspired by the actual historical events.

The historical mutiny was led by Fletcher Christian against Lieutenant William Bligh on a voyage to Tahiti to collect breadfruit plants. After the mutiny, Bligh and 18 loyal crew members were cast adrift in a small boat and navigated over 3,500 nautical miles to safety, a remarkable feat of seamanship. The mutineers, led by Christian, eventually settled on Pitcairn Island.
