Mutiny on the Bounty (1962 film) replaced by Lewis Milestone who is credited as director of the picture. The film was panned, and was considered a box office bomb, having lost over $6 million. A replica of the "Bounty" was constructed for the film. Fifty years after the release of the film, the vessel sank in Hurricane Sandy with loss of life.
