Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)

Set in the Caribbean Sea in the 17th century, this is the story of a gentleman rogue of a pirate, Jack Sparrow. When Captain Jack Sparrow, an eccentric rogue, arrives at Port Royal, he barely avoids going down with his ship. Soon enough, he's in the market for a new one, but not before he saves the life of Elizabeth Swann, the beautiful daughter of the governor. This act of bravery sets into motion a sweeping adventure involving Elizabeth's childhood friend, blacksmith Will Turner; a mysterious medallion; and a legendary pirate ship, the Black Pearl. The Pearl's mottled Captain Barbossa wants Elizabeth's doubloon necklace, and when she's kidnapped by the ol' salty dog and his crew, Sparrow and young Will must rescue her and find out the truth behind the ship's curse.
