May 4 1984  

THE BOUNTY opens. Directed by Roger Donaldson, from a screenplay by Robert Bolt. Anthony Hopkins as puritanical Capt. William Bligh and Mel Gibson as treasonous Fletcher Christian bring star-powered conviction to handsomely mounted, purportedly more historically accurate account of the infamous 1789 mutiny. With a young Liam Neeson and Daniel DAy-Lewis.
