Interesting adaptation to Joseph Conrad

I don't know if this French TV movie is faithful or not to the Joseph Conrad's book, but it is a very interesting analysis of the human soul through a sea adventure tale; Joseph Conrad's trademark. The atmosphere is the main character of this nearly eerie tale, which is close to the other Jo Conrad's adaptations. You can not tell this story just "like this"...You have to watch it to understand what the Joseph Conrad's world exactly was. There is no super hero here, just a man who struggles and refuses fate. I did not know this movie from director George Franju, and I am so happy to have seen it. This is not an action film but who cares?
