In the Heart of the Sea (the story that inspired Moby Dick)
Somehow, this movie caught my attention. Probably because I like Moby Dick (both the novel and the old movie). Since Ron Howard is directing, and many good actors are behind it, I think it’s gonna be a decent movie at least. Can’t wait to see this adaptation of the well-known book by Nathaniel Philbrick on screen (and to see the real "Moby Dick" )
In the winter of 1820, during the boom in the whaling business, Essex set out from New England and was torn apart by a mammoth whale. The boat went down, and that is really where this tale begins. It’s the story of cruel survival that involved leadership, cowardice, bad decisions, and cannibalism.
