The Finest Hours Movie Story

Bernard “Bernie” Webber, a crewman at Coast Guard Station Chatham in Massachusetts, is in love with a local woman named Miriam Penttinen. They plan to marry on April 16, but before he can propose, Bernie needs to obtain permission from the station’s commanding officer, Chief Warrant Officer Daniel Cluff—a process that is usually a mere formality. On February 18, 1952, the day he intends to ask for permission, the oil tanker SS Pendleton splits in half off the Chatham coast during a fierce nor’easter. With most of the station’s crew already engaged in rescuing the similarly damaged SS Fort Mercer, Bernie is ordered to pilot the motor lifeboat CG 36500 to rescue the Pendleton’s crew. He is joined by volunteers Andrew Fitzgerald, Ervin Maske, and Richard P. Livesey.

Meanwhile, Ray Sybert, the Pendleton’s engineer and the highest-ranking surviving officer, organizes the remaining crew to maneuver the sinking stern of the tanker onto a submerged reef, where it can remain stable until help arrives. Miriam, learning that Bernie is leading the rescue mission, fears for his life and views it as a suicide mission. Distrustful of Cluff, who is seen by many in Chatham as incompetent due to his outsider status, Miriam drives to the station to demand that he recall Bernie. Cluff, however, refuses her request and brusquely orders her to leave.

The Finest Hours Movie Review

The film takes a bit to get going, but the introduction of the large ensemble cast helped draw me in. The casting was spot-on, featuring talented character actors whose faces I recognized and appreciated, even if I couldn’t recall all their names. This approach really enhanced my emotional investment and made me genuinely concerned about who might not make it through the rescue mission. With the stakes so high, I braced myself for some heart-wrenching moments. The cinematography was impressive, and the storm scenes were particularly gripping. Overall, it’s a compelling film that brings to life a remarkable true story of two captains who, against all odds, kept their composure and made the best decisions to ensure their men’s survival.
