Star Trek's Chris Pine will have to go above and beyond to captain a small life boat through treacherous waters in Disney's sea rescue drama "The Finest Hours." Check out a new extended IMAX trailer for the fact-based 3D movie, directed by Craig Gillespie (Million Dollar Arm, Fright Night).
The film recounts the real-life rescue attempt by the U.S. Coast Guard in 1952, where four officers led by Coast Guard Captain Bernie Webber (Chris Pine) took a single lifeboat into dangerous waters in order to rescue a doomed crew aboard a sinking oil tanker. Taking charge of the situation on the tanker is engineer Ray Sybert (Casey Affleck) who helped his men stay calm, cool, and collective while waiting for rescue to arrive.
"The Finest Hours" also stars Eric Bana, Ben Foster, John Ortiz, Holliday Grainger and Graham McTavish, and will make its way into theaters on January 29th.
synopsis:
On February 18, 1952, a massive nor'easter struck New England, pummeling towns along the Eastern seaboard and wreaking havoc on the ships caught in its deadly path, including the SS Pendleton, a T-2 oil tanker bound for Boston, which was literally ripped in half, trapping more than 30 sailors inside its rapidly-sinking stern.
As the senior officer on board, first assistant engineer Ray Sybert (Casey Affleck) soon realizes it is up to him to take charge of the frightened crew and inspire the men to set aside their differences and work together to ride out one of the worst storms to ever hit the East Coast. Meanwhile, as word of the disaster reaches the U.S. Coast Guard station in Chatham, Massachusetts, Warrant Officer Daniel Cluff (Eric Bana) orders a daring operation to rescue the stranded men.
Despite overwhelming odds, four men, led by Coast Guard Captain Bernie Webber (Chris Pine), set out in a wooden lifeboat with an ill-equipped engine and little, if any, means of navigation, facing frigid temperatures, 60-foot high waves and hurricane-force winds.
