The
Finest Hours is a rousing, old-fashioned tale of remarkable heroism and grit. A
massive winter storm capsized the oil tanker SS Pendleton off the coast of
Chatham, Massachusetts on February 18, 1952. Unfortunately for them, another
ship, the SS Fort Mercer had the same problem hours before. The Coast Guard
sent a fleet of boats to the Fort Mercer, and then were caught completely off
guard by the Pendleton disaster. Defying all conceivable odds, a crew of
guardsmen led by Bernie Webber (Chris Pine), ventured into the storm and saved
thirty-two men from the Pendleton. Based on the novel by Michael J. Tougias and
Casey Sherman, The Finest Hours is the incredible true story of the greatest
small craft rescue in U.S. Coast Guard history.
