Based on the 1620 voyage of the ''Mayflower'', the film stars Creator/AnthonyHopkins as Captain Christopher Jones, Creator/RichardCrenna as William Brewster, and Creator/JennyAgutter as Priscilla Mullens.
Compare ''Film/PlymouthAdventure'', a 1952 theatrical feature that covered the same material.

!!This film has the examples of:
* BurialAtSea: William Brewster objects when Captain Jones performs one without a prayer. Jones claims that the godless sailor whose corpse they're throwing overboard wouldn't have appreciated it.
* ChurchPolice: Jacobean England doesn't take kindly to people who don't follow the established church. Of course, the Pilgrims would later set up their own version of this, not that the film ever mentions that.
* CultureClash: As in ''Plymouth Adventure'', there's any ongoing clash between the pious Pilgrims and the crude sailors.
-->'''Brewster:''' Captain, could you prevail upon your sailors to give up their profanity for the duration of the voyage?\\
'''Jones:''' My men are profane, Mr. Brewster. Profanity is their natural speech.
* DoesntLikeGuns: John Alden says he doesn't like guns.
* HereThereBeDragons:
-->'''Jones:''' When the mapmakers didn't know what lay beyond the horizon, they used to print the legend, "here there be dragons."\\
'''Reyond:''' And there never were dragons.\\
'''Jones:''' Wrong, Captain. There always were, and there always are.
* IncurableCoughOfDeath: Rose Standish spends the whole film suffering from this ailment. In the ending scroll, it's mentioned that she died shortly after the arrival in the New World.
* LoveTriangle: The usual one with [[Literature/TheCourtshipOfMilesStandish Miles Standish, John Alden, and Priscilla Mullins]].
* NiceGuysFinishLast: This is Miles Standish's dating advice for John Alden.
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: Governor Christopher Martin constantly thinks the rules shouldn't have to apply to him because he's rich. Who cares if they'll all starve because he's taking more than his share of food? He's entitled to it because he's Governor Christopher Martin.
* ShapedLikeItself:
-->'''Brewster:''' Captain, how long do you think this storm will last?\\
'''Jones:''' Until it ends, Mr. Brewster, until it ends.
* UltimateJobSecurity: One of the sailors is a literal rapist, but Jones hires him anyway because he's a good sailor. It's implied that the rest of the crew is not much better.
* WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue: The film ends with the arrival in the New World. A scrolling text then explains what happened to all the characters next and ultimately notes that this is the DawnOfAnEra for the UsefulNotes/UnitedStates.
