The epic saga of Horatio Hornblower, the legendary seafaring hero, comes to life in these films based on C. S. Forester's classic novels. Set against the bloody backdrop of the Napoleonic wars, Hornblower charts a course for high adventure, following the raw recruit as he battles the French, evades capture, and rises through the ranks of the King's Navy. With a powerful performance by Ioan Gruffudd (Titanic) in the title role, Horatio Hornblower brings C.S. Forester's classic tales to life in all their swashbuckling glory.
