Captain Jack (1999)

Directed by Robert Young

Overview

Rebellious and irreverent, Captain Jack is a man on a mission. Come hell or high water, he’s determined to follow in the footsteps of Whitby’s unsung hero, Captain Scoresby, who set sail from the town bound for the Arctic in the 18th Century. Assembling a crew of oddballs and misfits, the cantankerous captain weighs anchor and voyages into the unknown. His ship has been certified unseaworthy, and he’s pursued by the Royal Navy, NATO and journalists, but nothing is going to stop Captain Jack fulfilling his wildest dream.

Length 96 minutes
