The Finest Hours
Who doesn't love a movie night at home? Getting comfy on the couch, popping some popcorn. This is one of my favorite 'Date Nights'. Yesterday, Aaron and I watched The Finest Hours. I absolutely LOVE movies about true stories, especially when I IMDB it afterwards to see the trivia and it shows the movie was basically right on point.
This movie documents the efforts the Coast Guard made to rescue sailors on an oil tanker that had been catastrophically battered in the raging seas off the coast of Massachusetts. Against all odds, Bernie Webber and his crew of 3 set off to rescue an unknown number of men off of an oil tanker in one of the worst storms of the season. The movie showed the stories of both the Coast Guard and the men on the oil tanker, who battle among themselves to determine the best course of action while on their sinking vessel. It truly was life and death for both groups of men and it shows how a community can come together to support their own. The Finest Hours has action, romance, and drama all while telling a true story of one of the most daring rescues in Coast Guard history.
As always, all opinions expressed are my own. I was not compensated for this review.
