I watched that one as well, like you I had forgotten about it but it is good. I am sure it was based on actual events.

Have to say my favourite sea film is Jaws though, followed by the Guardian and then Titanic (only because that annoying character of Di Caprio's got offed in it)

When I read the title of this thread, The Perfect Storm was the first one that came to mind, so DITTO

It was based on a true story and was absolutely brilliant, especially in Perth Cinema wi dolby surround sound etc. Scared the heck out o OH & me, but flippin brilliant !!

The Cruel Sea - World War 2 drama with the late, great Jack Hawkins is my all time favourite

Followed by Run Silent, Run Deep with Burt Lancaster and Clarke Gable

I too loved Jaws, as a great bit of Hollywood nonsense

as well as the original Posiedon Adventure (1972) with Gene Hackman, which is always worth a watch

and more recently Master and Commander was a good romp.

For me it has to be Das Boot, you can virtually smell the stale cabbage and diesel whilst watching this film.

Master and Commander has to be my ho,s best sea film im fed up of seeing it.

**ShelleyCowie** · 23-Apr-09, 22:02

The Perfect storm and The Guardian!

**sweetpea** · 23-Apr-09, 22:19

It's not sea but it's still water. The old film African Queen. Was it Lauren Becall? It's a romance.

Moby Dick is another personal fave and Pirates Of Carribean, Captain Jack...

The Special Edition (extended version) of the Abyss makes more sense of the underwater creatures bit. And I agree it is a good film.

The Perfect Storm just love it OH choice K19 The widowmaker

**percy toboggan** · 25-Apr-09, 10:41

There are several but it has to be JAWS for me.

**Cedric Farthsbottom III** · 26-Apr-09, 20:46

Titanic for me.The ending was a bit of a giveaway though!
Only kidding Jaws with The Perfect Storm a close second.

Ma favourite comedy sea moment is the hermit crab getting offered to the seagulls in 'Finding Nemo'.
