	Horatio Hornblower: Collector's Edition \| PopMatters Television Review
		A loose adaptation of the celebrated adventure novels by C.S. Forester, Horatio Hornblower follows its titular hero (Ioan Gruffudd) in his meteoric, Nelsonian rise through the ranks of naval officers and gentlemen, from callow midshipman to master and commander, peppered with romance, derring-do, and scads upon scads of pure unalloyed Britishness.
		Already he is at a disadvantage, for while the sons of the landed and professional classes (Horatio's father is a doctor) entered naval service as officers, most did so at the age of 12.
		He encounters the harsh, strenuous, and often full-on madness of the sailor's life: the cramped conditions aboard ship, the dangers of the riggings in high gale, the exigencies of commanding older seamen with serious class-warfare gripes, and the endless hierarchies and petty fiefdoms that exist among the officers.

	dOc DVD Review: C.S. Forester's Horatio Hornblower (1999)
		Horatio gets lost in a fog and is captured by the Spanish fleet; but instead of dumping the dispatches into the ocean as ordered, the Duchess convinces him to hide them with her.
		The relationship is well written, as Horatio cares for the Duchess and she for him, and while the more romantic aspect of their relationship is hinted at, it never overtakes the story.
		Take the romance between Horatio and the French peasant, for example: unlike the layered and complex relationship between the Duchess and Horatio, here Horatio meets the woman, decides he must protect her from the "savage" French troops and the next day they're hopelessly in love.
