Review of The Finest Hours (2016) by Tom D — 09 May 2018
True story of incredible and selfless courage.
The film does true history the way it should be done - sticking to the known facts in all the key areas and fudging the history as little as humanly possible.
The result is a film that's more compelling than if the film makers had bent the facts, as is rampant in hollywood.
Cinematography is skillful and Pine and Affleck deliver sound perfromances.
Worth watching and then reading the actual historical accounts.
These were real live heroes , bound by honour, compassion, and duty, and they were barely more than kids.
