MAD #80, July 1963
w: Larry Siegel
a: Wallace Wood
Remake of earlier version, satirizing Hollywood almost as much as the movie itself. Story of Captain Bligh (Trevor Howard) of the H.M.S. Bounty and his voyage to Tahiti to gather breadfruit for the king.
Marlon Brando is first lieutenant Fletcher Christian.
They get to Tahiti in a roundabout way through a route closer but much harder to navigate. Here Tahiti is run by Hugh Hefner. While the crew is stuck in Tahiti as the breadfruits mature, Christian carries on a romance with Maimaita (Tarita Teriipaia). In making up for lost time, Bligh cuts the rations of his men when they return.
As Bligh becomes more cruel to the men, Seaman Mills (Richard Harris) urges Mr. Christian to declare mutiny.
