About this Event
“Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl” (2003, PG-13) follows eccentric pirate Jack Sparrow as he goes on a quest to find a ship and crew, only to find that his former crew has kidnapped the daughter of the royal governor. He reluctantly joins forces with a young blacksmith to rescue the girl and get the ship back. But there’s something not quite right about his old shipmates. Join our historians who will discuss the real history of Caribbean pirates and the truth and fiction behind this popular Hollywood film.
