Genre: Drama, Sea, Period Piece, Escape, Swashbuckler
Tagline: The sun never sets on his world of adventure.
Plot: A straightforward naval adventure, based on three novels by C.S. Forester, about the heroic, 19th-century British sea captain. The story sails with his ship, the Lydia, through battles with Spain and then France won with wit rather than might. Hornblower still finds time to romance Lady Barbara Wellesley, who roils emotional seas because she's married to his admiral.
