 The Bounty, Pitcairn Island, and Fletcher Christian's Descendants
It is not surprising that the most famous of all mutinies, that of the British HMS Bounty, has become ideal fodder for popular history and legend.
Set in the paradisiacal islands of the South Seas, the mutiny involved a host of colorful characters, including the tyrannical Captain Bligh, the aristocratic Fletcher Christian (a distant relation of William Wordsworth's), numerous uninhibited Tahitian women, and a pack of sailors made up of cockney orphans and ruffian adverturers.
Living on a 1¾ square mile volcanic speck in the South Pacific that is surely one of the most isolated places on Earth, the contemporary Pitcairn Islanders still bear the surnames of the eighteenth century mutineers (Tom Christian, for example, is the great-great-great-grandson of Fletcher).

 Guardian Unlimited Football | Match Reports | West Ham United 1 - 0 Cardiff City
Carl Fletcher's glancing header ended West Ham's run of three consecutive league defeats but it only temporarily disguised the discontent that lingered around the ground throughout the afternoon.
Richard Langley was responsible for the first, when he miskicked after 72 minutes despite having time to control before shooting, and Alan Lee spurned the follow-up.
One of his trademark delicate flicks also caused momentary panic in the Cardiff defence but Zamora and Fletcher both struck at the same ball, taking the venom out of Fletcher's original shot, allowing Danny Gabbidon to block.

BETWEEN The Men (1950) and The Godfather (1972) Marlon Brando was arguably the brightest and most original star in movies.
Trevor Howard's involvement with Brando began one day when the director Carol Reed telephoned him to ask if playing Captain Bligh in a remake of Mutiny on the Bounty appealed to him and what changes he would make to Charles Laughton's 1935 portrayal.
The most obvious of them is the way that Marlon Brando makes Fletcher Christian an eccentric.
