About this listen
Ben and Rob dive deep into Master & Commander: The Far Side of the World, directed by Peter Weir and starring Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany, and, of course, Russell Crowe (with even more Russell Crowe to come). They unpack why this film grabbed them so powerfully on first watch, why politics usually stay off the table for them, the incredible making-of craft behind the production, and the bizarre yet undeniable parallels between this tightly focused nautical adventure and today’s sprawling mega-franchises.
Why does this film hit so hard right from the start? How does such a contained story feel oddly aligned with modern blockbuster logic? What did the behind-the-scenes dedication achieve? And honestly… what does it all mean?!
