Christian is depicted as having died trying to prevent the destruction of the Bounty shortly after their arrival at Pitcairn Island.The real mutiny had actually taken place early in the morning, when Bligh and a good percentage of the ship's crew were still asleep. The movie depicts the mutiny as taking place in the middle of the day, with Bligh wide awake at the time. Brown in his narration says that the Tahitian women considered pale skin beautiful. All Women Are Lustful: The women of Tahiti, all of whom really want sex with British sailors.Bligh did have a short temper and poor interpersonal skills that ultimately led to his downfall. Adaptational Villainy: In reality, William Bligh was not a cruel sadist who took pleasure in tormenting his crew or having men beaten for trivial or non-existent offenses (in fact, he was actually more lenient than many other captains when it came to corporal punishment).In reality, his motives were far more selfish, and there was plenty of blame to go around between him and Bligh when it came to moral responsibility for the mutiny. Adaptational Heroism: Fletcher Christian is shown to be an idealist on the side of liberty and justice.
