''Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest'' is a 2006 American fantasy swashbuckler film and the second installment of the ''Pirates of the Caribbean'' film series, following ''The Curse of the Black Pearl'' (2003). It was directed by Gore Verbinski, written by Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio, and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer. In the film, the wedding of Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) is interrupted by Lord Cutler Beckett (Tom Hollander), who wants Turner to acquire the compass of Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) in a bid to find the Dead Man's Chest. Sparrow discovers his debt to Davy Jones (Bill Nighy) is due. Two sequels to ''Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl'' were conceived in 2004, with Elliott and Rossio developing a story arc that would span both films. Filming took place from February to September 2005 in Palos Verdes, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Dominica, and The Bahamas, as well as on sets constructed at Walt Disney Studios. It was shot back-to-back with the third film of the series, ''Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End''. ''Dead Man's Chest'' was released in the United States on July 7, 2006. The film set several records in its first three days, with an opening weekend of $136 million in the United States, and it was, at the time, the fastest film ever to gross over $1 billion in the worldwide box office. It currently ranks as the fifteenth highest-grossing film of all time worldwide and held the record as the highest-grossing film released by the Walt Disney Studios for nearly six years until it was surpassed by ''The Avengers'' (2012), although it remains the highest grossing live-action Walt Disney Pictures release. The film received Academy Award nominations for Best Art Direction, Sound Editing, Sound Mixing, and won the Academy Award for Visual Effects. ==Plot== The wedding of Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann is crashed by Lord Cutler Beckett of the East India Trading Company, who has arrest warrants for the couple along with Commodore James Norrington, for allowing Captain Jack Sparrow to escape custody. Norrington's whereabouts are uncertain, as he resigned after his obsessive pursuit of Sparrow resulted in the Navy's flagship, HMS ''Dauntless'', being destroyed in a typhoon. Elizabeth is imprisoned, but Beckett promises to free her if Will tracks down Jack and brings him his magic compass which points to whatever the holder wants most. Shortly after, Governor Swann tries to escape Port Royal with Elizabeth but is captured. Elizabeth negotiates with Beckett to let her escape to find the compass herself and she hides aboard a Scottish merchant vessel, the ''Edinburgh Trader''. On the ''Black Pearl'', Jack reunites with Will’s father Bootstrap Bill, who reveals he is a crewman on the ''Flying Dutchman'', captained by Davy Jones, who Jack previously made a deal with to raise the ''Pearl'' from the depths. Jack must join Jones’ crew or be dragged to his Locker by the monstrous Kraken. Jack flees to land, Will finding the crew on an island ruled by cannibals, though they escape. The crew meet voodoo priestess Tia Dalma, who tells them Jones’ weakness is his heart, locked within the Dead Man’s Chest. Locating the ''Dutchman'', Will is shanghaied into service while Jones sends Jack to bring him one-hundred souls so his debt can be paid. On the ''Dutchman'', Will meets his father, and learns the chest’s key is in Jones’ possession. After playing a game of ''Liar's Dice'' against Davy Jones, Bootstrap helps Will escape with the key, but Jones sends the Kraken after him, sinking the ''Edinburgh Trader'' in the process. In Tortuga, Jack hires a new crew, including Elizabeth, and a drunken Norrington. All parties arrive on Isla Cruces where the chest is buried but a three-way sword fight break out between Jack, Will, and Norrington who all want the heart for their respective goals – Jack wants to call off the Kraken, Will wants to rescue his father, and Norrington wants to regain his life. In the chaos, Jack obtains Jones’ heart and hides it in a jar of dirt, but Norrington secretly steals the heart and runs off pretending to lure away the ''Dutchman''’s crew. Jones attacks the ''Pearl'' with the Kraken, which devours most of the crew and destroys all but one of the ''Pearls lifeboats , but Jack, who briefly fled, returns and wounds it with a net full of explosives. Jack orders the survivors to abandon ship, but is chained to the mast by Elizabeth so the crew can escape the Kraken. Jack manages to break free but is dragged down to Davy Jones’ Locker. Jones discovers his heart is missing and rages. In Port Royal, Norrington approaches Beckett and gives him the heart and Letters of Marque meant for Jack, allowing him back into the navy as well as allowing Beckett to gain control of Davy Jones. The ''Pearl’s'' crew take shelter with Tia Dalma, but all agree to rescue Jack from the Locker. Tia Dalma comments they will need a captain to guide them: The resurrected Captain Barbossa. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
