Pirates of the Caribbean:
The Curse of the Black Pearl
Released Wednesday, July 9, 2003
Synopsis
From producer Jerry Bruckheimer comes the rollicking live-action adventure
“Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl,” starring Johnny Depp,
Geoffrey Rush, and Orlando Bloom, directed by Gore Verbinski. For the roguish
yet charming Captain Jack Sparrow (JOHNNY DEPP), the crystalline waters of the
Caribbean, like the high seas the world over, present a vast playground where
adventure and mystery abound. But Jack’s idyllic life capsizes after his nemesis, the
wily Captain Barbossa (GEOFFREY RUSH), steals his ship, the Black Pearl, and
later attacks the town of Port Royal, kidnapping the Governor’s (JONATHAN
PRYCE) beautiful daughter, Elizabeth Swann (KEIRA KNIGHTLEY). Elizabeth’s
childhood friend, Will Turner (ORLANDO BLOOM), joins forces with Jack to
commandeer the fastest ship in the British fleet, the HMS Interceptor, in a gallant
attempt to rescue her and recapture the Black Pearl. The duo and their motley
crew are pursued by Elizabeth’s betrothed, the debonair, ambitious Commodore
Norrington (JACK DAVENPORT), aboard the HMS Dauntless. Unbeknownst to
Will, there is a curse that has doomed Barbossa and his crew to live forever as the
undead, where each moonlight, they are transformed into living skeletons. The
curse they carry can be broken only if a once-plundered treasure is restored.
Stunning visual effects bring these formidable foes to life as our valiant heroes clash
mightily with Barbossa and his invincible pirates of the Caribbean.
