Picture of a sailing ship on the front of the Bookmark; Information on the back of the Bookmark about the movie, Russell Crowe (Academy Award Winner), Peter Weir (Nominee) that was going to be opening in theaters. Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World is a 2003 American epic period war-drama film co-written, produced and directed by Peter Weir, set in the Napoleonic Wars. The film's plot and characters are adapted from three novels in author Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey-Maturin series, which includes 20 completed novels of Jack Aubrey's naval career. The film stars Russell Crowe as Jack Aubrey, captain in the Royal Navy, and Paul Bettany as Dr. Stephen Maturin, the ship's surgeon. The film, which cost $150 million to make, was a co-production of 20th Century Fox, Miramax Films, Universal Pictures, and Samuel Goldwyn Films, and released on November 14, 2003. The film grossed $212 million worldwide. The film was critically well received. At the 76th Academy Awards, the film was nominated for 10 Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director. It won in two categories, Best Cinematography and Best Sound Editing and lost in all other categories to The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. Abookmarkis a thin marker, commonly made ofcard,leather, orfabric, used to keep a reader's place in abookand to enable them to easily return to it. According to new results of the research done on the history of bookmarks, there are indications that bookmarks have accompanied codices since their first emergence in the 1st century AD. The earliest existing bookmark dates from the 6th century AD and it is made of ornamented leather lined with vellum on the back and was attached with a leather strap to the cover of a Coptic codex. Bookmarks were used throughout the medieval period,consisting usually of a small parchment strip attached to the edge offolio(or a piece of cord attached to headband). The first detached, and therefore collectible, bookmarkers began to appear in the 1850s. One of the first references to these is found in Mary Russell Mitford'sRecollections of a Literary Life(1852. Historical bookmarks can be very valuable, and are sometimes collected along with other paperephemera. By the 1860s, attractive machine-woven markers were being manufactured. One of the earliest was produced by J.&J. Cash to mark thedeathofAlbert, Prince Consort, in 1861. Thomas Stevens of Coventry soon became preeminent in the field and claimed to have nine hundred different designs. Woven silk bookmarks were very appreciated gifts in theVictorian Eraand Stevens seemed to make one for every occasion and celebration. By the 1880s the production of woven silk markers was declining, and printed markers made of stiff paper or cardboard began to appear in significant numbers. This development paralleled the wider availability of books themselves, and the range of available bookmarkers soon expanded dramatically. Modern bookmarks are available in a huge variety of materials in a multitude of designs and styles. Many are made of cardboard or heavy paper, but they are also constructed of paper, ribbon, fabric, felt, steel, wire, tin, beads, wood, plastic, vinyl, silver, gold, and other precious metals, some decorated with gemstones.…
