Catherine Deneuve, the only woman I ever loved, the only woman I loved yet never ever met. The costumes were brilliant, the story most romantic and the acting superb.
What I love about this movie is it really showcases how the pirates, particularly in the agean and Mediterranean, wernt just all about evil , but there was also an aspect of it about punishing or striking back at the oppressors
My family is Greek from Argos and I am a Captain. I was taught freedom must never be given up and worth dying for. All men seek to be free. America is our last chance. Fight for her.
Great film about an exceptional man rising to an historic challenge, pursuing his bold ideas & sharing his good fortune to benefit others & his country. Enjoyable & educational.
I am a 53 year old man sitting at home on my couch and I've been brought to tears my name is Efstratios Varvakis..I don't know what this means.. but my heart just broke into a million pieces and somehow at the same time I feel so proud.. Thank you to all that were involved in this film..I don't know what more to say
Loved it!...volume not the best but the movie was so good it really didn't deter me from watching this entire film. Acting, script, camera all top notch.
This has a Epic story line and i am so excited to be able to watch this movie! Thank you so much for making this movie available for us to enjoy and learn some history too! Looks like a ***** production/cast!
Even with earphone plugged in. Volume is a strain to listen. Then commercials come on and scream on my ear. I wish I didn't have to miss this one. I like historical movies.
absalutly brilliant almost as good as Doctor Schavargo ! I think may be even as passioniatly acted and done a story hard to beat! I think pass for a classic? To me 3 Oscars are in order!
Good movie, really enjoyed it. If you want to find it on IMB (Internet Movie Database) you want to look for it under the real name (God Loves Caviar) Not (The Pirate)..... LLAP
A very good film. Thank you. I found the closing remarks a bit of a sad joke. They are not "free Greeks". They are still paying for those loans taken so long ago. The same happened to Argentina. A debt they can't get rid of. It is probably why someone like Varvakis had to be removed. He was loved and popular and would have probably found a way to finance the war without enslaving the Greek people for centuries.
A very pretty film not super realistic but kind. This could be a nice TV series. In 2 hours they only could manage a story in a style of an abbreviated narration, almost like a simplified version of a novel. It is worth watching at least once.
Great film, I was expecting more Pirate scene's ' but these same producer's should make another film with the Greek Pirate's like Barbarossa aka Red Beard & the other bad ass Pirates from Mani of the Peloponnese!
