The real-life story of the man who gained a nation's adoration - and a woman's forbidden Iove.
Lord Admiral Horatio Nelson, England's greatest maritime hero, led a life of astonishing adventure. He found danger in soul-stirring naval battIes, fame in his triumphs over NapoIeon's fleet, and passion in the arms of the bewitching - and, Iike NeIson himself, married - Lady Emma HamiIton.
Frank Lloyd (Mutiny of the Bounty) won a 1928-29 Best Director Oscar for this thriIIing pre-talkie (with music score and sound effects) of ship-to-ship and man-to-man combat interwoven with poignant scenes of the lovers finding happiness amid the tumult of war. The story of NeIson and Emma, retold in the Laurence Olivier -Vivien Leigh epic That HamiIton Woman (1941), remains a perfect match of history and romance. |
