THE STORY
From producer Jerry Bruckheimer comes the thrilling 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 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? When exposed to 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.
