Quotes

Jack Sparrow: But why is the rum gone?

After Jack slams the boom into Will aboard Interceptor, then brings him back on deck, Jack points the sword at Will. In Will's close-up, the sharp edge of the blade actually faces Will's neck - the hand guard is at Jack's knuckles. However, in the next shot, a close-up of Jack, as Jack still points the blade at Will, BEFORE Jack flips the sword over, it is apparent that the sharp edge of the blade faces away from Will - the hand guard is at Jack's fingertips. (Though this is visible on the DVD, a better view is on the video.) See more...

Trivia

The phrase that Jack and Gibbs utter in the Tortuga pub, "Take what you can. Give nothing back," was actually inspired by the crew of the ''Lady Washington'', the ship that played the "Interceptor." It refers to taking in a ship's sails during a high wind and not letting any canvas slip back. (DVD commentary) See more...

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl

Continuity: In the close-up of young Elizabeth, as she sings on the bow of the ship, she's standing between two posts of the railing. Each post has rope wound around it. In the next few shots of her, the existence, the amount and the thickness of the rope on each post changes drastically.
