Oscar-winning producer Jerry Bruckheimer is staging an exhibition of photographs taken from his private collection to help raise money for the Cutty Sark Conservation Project. The exhibition will feature more than thirty pictures taken on set during the filming of the Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, which is released on DVD next week.
The exhibition opens at the Cutty Sark Visitor Centre, on Friday 23rd November, from 11.00am to 5.00pm (last admission 4.30pm) for 7 days. All proceeds go to the Cutty Sark Conservation Project.

Never-before-seen images will be shown of some of Hollywood’s biggest names including Johnny Depp, Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom. Taken both on and off the set, the photos encapsulate some of the most dramatic moments and scenes from the movie and offer a rare insight into life behind the scenes on one of the most successful film trilogies of all time.

Tickets will cost £3 for adults, but children can enter free of charge (accompanied by an adult). All of the funds raised will go towards the fire appeal launched by the Cutty Sark Trust in May this year. Jerry Bruckheimer, who was visiting London with members of the cast at the time the tragedy struck in May this year, saw this project as a fitting cause given the role that Cutty Sark played in inspiring the main ship of the trilogy: the Black Pearl.Cutty Sark

:thankyou: for the news domesticgoddess. It sounds wonderful. Jerry Bruckheimer has taken some wonderful on set photographs of Pirates.

Unfortunately I don't in London or anywhere near it, but I'm sure we will have someone who will be able to go and check it out.

Thanks again for sharing.

Yes, it does.

I viewed it before, and while there is nothing specific on Pirates, there are alot of the mast heads that remind me of the scene where Davy Jones was attacking the pirate ships.

From BBC, August 2007

Fans of the Hollywood film trilogy Pirates of the Caribbean are being invited to raise funds to help restore the fire-damaged Cutty Sark.

The Black Pearl pirate ship from the film trilogy is a full-size replica of the original HMS Bounty - built for the 1962 film Mutiny on the Bounty.

She is spending the day in Liverpool at the South Quay of Canning half-tide dock where visitors can pay for a tour.

All proceeds from the tours on Saturday go towards The Cutty Sark restoration.

I contacted the Cutty Sark Visitor Centre this morning and the exhibition is indeed going ahead as from today. There was a technical glitch on the website.

The information is now back up and can be read HERE

Throughout the entire summer all reports have been getting this information wrong. The Bounty played 'The Edinburgh Trader', the ship that was destroyed by The Kraken in DMC. It was used to film a few 'on deck' scenes in POTC 1 but never appeared as the actual 'Black Pearl'. In POTC1 the 'Pearl' was a barge, in POTC2/3 it was a complete ship that was built for the sole purpose of filming.

I'm such a geek sometimes! :lol:
