However, the purer you try to define it, the less meaning you gain from the idea. Swashbuckling is an attitude. One which is seen from characters like Robin Hood, Zorro, or Indiana Jones. They are from different places, different times, and different goals, but each exhibit what it means to swashbuckle. Laughing in the face of danger. Choosing to defy the odds. Lunging into the thick of things because it's the right thing to do. As much as any fencing style, it's all about your stance. It's about how you approach the world and conflicts around you.

Tara Erickson and Aaron Alexander set sail for a swashbuckling adventure in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, the blockbuster sequel to Disney's Curse of the Black Pearl, directed by Gore Verbinski. Johnny Depp (Edward Scissorhands, Sweeney Todd) returns in his iconic, Oscar-nominated role as Captain Jack Sparrow, who finds himself indebted to the dreaded Davy Jones—captain of the ghostly Flying Dutchman—and must retrieve the legendary Dead Man's Chest to save his soul. Orlando Bloom (The Lord of the Rings, Kingdom of Heaven) reprises his role as Will Turner, who joins Jack on his quest while dealing with family revelations, including the fate of his father Bootstrap Bill, played by Stellan Skarsgård (Chernobyl, Dune). Keira Knightley (Pride & Prejudice, Atonement) returns as Elizabeth Swann, now entangled in political intrigue and pirate peril. Bill Nighy (Love Actually, Underworld) delivers a chilling performance as Davy Jones, brought to life through groundbreaking motion-capture and visual effects. Naomie Harris (Moonlight, No Time to Die) appears as Tia Dalma, the mysterious sea witch with a deep connection to Jones. From the thrilling Kraken attacks and Jack's iconic escape from the cannibal tribe, to the three-way sword fight on the giant spinning waterwheel, this film is packed with some of the franchise's most famous and highly searched action sequences. The visual effects and Hans Zimmer's sweeping score helped Dead Man's Chest become one of the highest-grossing films of all time and a fan favorite within the series. Tara and Aaron dive into the film's most epic moments, character arcs, and legacy, while reflecting on how it holds up nearly two decades later!
