Plots(1)
In the winter of 1820, the New England whaling ship Essex was assaulted by something no one could believe: a whale of mammoth proportions with an almost human sense of vengeance. This real-life maritime disaster would inspire Herman Melville's 'Moby-Dick', but Melville's book only told half the store. Experience the harrowing aftermath as the pummelled crew battle storms, starvation and despair and the men are forced to do the unthinkable in order to survive. Ron Howard direct this astonishing true story based on the best-selling book by Nathaniel Philbrick. Chris Hemsworth stars as the vessels veteran first mate and Benjamin Walker is the ship's less-than-experienced captain. (Roadshow Entertainment)
