Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea

Sailors all over the world report a huge, fast creature in the sea, and a professor from Paris is asked what it could be.

Professor Aronnax sets out on the hunt with his calm servant Conseil and meets Ned Land, a famous harpooner who has his own opinion about the monster.

After months of searching the Pacific, the crew of the Abraham Lincoln are ready to give up when something finally appears in the dark sea.

Alone in the dark sea, far from the frigate, Professor Aronnax fights to stay alive until morning.

Locked in a dark iron room inside the strange boat, the three men try to speak with the strangers who hold them.

The commander of the strange ship at last speaks to his three prisoners, tells them on what terms they may live on board, and shows the professor his rooms.

Captain Nemo takes the professor from one end of his ship to the other and explains how it works and moves under the sea.

The voyage of the Nautilus begins, the sea opens before the windows of the salon, and one day a strange note lies on the professor’s table.

In heavy diving suits, the professor and Conseil follow Captain Nemo out of the ship and onto the floor of the ocean.

As the Nautilus crosses the Pacific, its windows show the professor more than fish, and in the last days of the year Captain Nemo has a surprise for him.

In a strait full of coral reefs the Nautilus runs into trouble, and the three companions get a chance to walk on land again.

The people of the island gather around the stranded Nautilus, and Professor Aronnax cannot understand why Captain Nemo stays so calm.

Something Captain Nemo sees on the horizon changes him completely, and soon afterward he asks the professor for an unusual favor.

Off Ceylon, Captain Nemo takes his guests for a walk among the pearl oysters, where a poor fisherman is diving alone.

Ships cannot sail from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean, but Captain Nemo has a secret, and Ned gets a chance to use his harpoon again.

Now that the Nautilus is close to Europe, Ned wants to escape, and one night near Crete Aronnax watches Captain Nemo do something he cannot explain.

Off the coast of Spain, Ned decides that the moment to escape has come, and Aronnax spends a long, anxious day waiting for the night.

Captain Nemo takes Aronnax alone on a long night walk across the dark floor of the Atlantic, toward a strange red light.

Weeks pass in the empty South Atlantic, until one day Ned sees whales on the horizon and longs to hunt again.

As the ice closes in around the Nautilus, Captain Nemo sets out for a place no human being has ever reached.

On the way back from the South Pole, a sudden shock in the night puts the Nautilus and everyone on board in the greatest danger of the voyage.

Free of the ice, the Nautilus sails north through the Atlantic: Conseil makes a painful catch, and a creature from the old sailors’ stories appears at the window.

Off the coast of America, Ned has reached the end of his patience, and Aronnax must take a difficult question to Captain Nemo.

Carried east by the storm, the Nautilus crosses the North Atlantic until Captain Nemo begins to search for one exact place in the ocean.

A warship comes toward the Nautilus, and the three prisoners see a chance of rescue while Captain Nemo watches it with hatred in his eyes.

The Nautilus races north in silence, and Ned decides that the time has come to leave the ship, whatever happens.
