Longitude
DVD - 2000
Interweaves two stories: John Harrison's forty-year obsession with building his perfect timekeeper, known today as the chronometer; and naval officer Rupert Gould who, two hundred years later, stumbles across Harrison's forgotten chronometers and devotes himself to restoring Harrison's long-neglected mechanical masterpieces.
