A Question (stupid Maybe )


BONDEN

I am also a big fan of Patrick O'Brian's books. I might start reading them for a second time.

I was shocked that they cast that hobbit Billy Boyd as Barret Bonden, Aubrey's coxswain..

Reading the books I imagined him as a larger, tougher looking and more uneducated (but deck-wise) man.

But then again, the movie took a lot of liberties with the other characters as well..

Did you ever read the last book, the unfinished journey?

I ordered it from Amazon a couple of days ago and looking forward to read it.

I believe that a second look to the books will make them even more great

As for the film I agree that the casting was not as Patric O Brian describes but it was a great movie

hope they make another one
