Youth is wasted on young people. At least, Russell Crowe’s opinion on that.
The actor responded today to an online commentator who discredited the 2003 epic Master and Commander: the other side of the world. The film starred Crowe as Jack Aubrey, captain of the Royal Navy.
The film grossed $ 212 million worldwide and was nominated for 10 Oscars at the 76th Academy Award, winning for Best Photography and Best Sound Editing, but losing for Best Film and Best Director for The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.
Crowe called the commentator who recommended the film as a sleeping aid.
That is the problem with children today.
Without focus.Peter Weirs’ film is brilliant. An epic, precise, detail-oriented tale of fidelity to the Empire and service, regardless of cost.
Incredible cinematography by Russell Boyd and a majestic soundtrack.
Definitely a movie for adults. https://t.co/22yjNtQRbg– Russell Crowe (@russellcrowe) January 17, 2021
