A straightforward naval adventure, based on three novels by C.S. Forester, about the heroic, 19th-century British seafarer. The story sails with his ship, the Lydia, through battles with Spain and then France won with wit rather than might. Hornblower still finds time to romance Lady Barbara Wellesley, who roils emotional seas because she's married to his admiral. Director Raoul Walsh Star Gregory Peck, Virginia Mayo, Robert Beatty Special Features: Full Frame Format, Featurettes.
