Review of Mutiny on the Bounty (1935) by Dave Kehr for Chicago Reader — 12 Dec 2006
As with most Thalberg projects (the director of record was Frank Lloyd, but he barely matters), it's tainted by a fair amount of middlebrow stuffiness, but it's a fleet piece of storytelling and serves to enshrine one of the great ham performances of all time, Charles Laughton's Captain Bligh.
