In The Heart Of The Sea / Perfect Storm

In The Heart Of The Sea

In the winter of 1820, the New England whaling ship Essex was assaulted by something no one could believe: a whale of mammoth size and will, and an almost human sense of vengeance. The real-life maritime disaster would inspire Herman Melville's Moby-Dick. But that told only half the story. Heart of the Sea reveals the encounter's harrowing aftermath, as the ship's surviving crew is pushed to their limits and to do the unthinkable to stay alive. Braving storms, starvation, panic and despair, the men will call into question their deepest beliefs, from the value of their lives to the morality of their trade, as their captain searches for direction on the open sea and his first mate still seeks to bring the great whale down.

Perfect Storm

Atlantic swells form 100-foot walls. Wind shrieks at a maxed-out 12. In October 1991 three raging weather fronts one of them Hurricane Grace combine to form the greatest storm in recorded history. George Clooney and Mark Wahlberg lead a talented cast in this harrowing special-effects adventure that intercuts the plight of seafarers struggling to reach safe harbor with the heroics of air/sea rescue crews. Directed by Wolfgang Petersen, The Perfect Storm tosses excitement your way in waves.
