Mel Gibson and Anthony Hopkins star in 1984's The Bounty, a ship charged with the task of journeying from England to Tahiti to procure breadfruit plants and then continue on to the Caribbean so that said plants could become a food source for slave labor there. I only mention the plot here because whenever I reference this movie in conversation, folks look at me like I'm crazy, so if nothing else, I can use this first paragraph to mention that this is a movie everybody should see at least once... oh and it also features Laurence Olivier.
