In the Heart of the Sea / Perfect Storm
The DVD release of In the Heart of the Sea and The Perfect Storm is a remarkable combination of two gripping maritime tales that highlight the power of nature and the resilience of the human spirit. These films, while distinct in their narratives, both delve into the thrilling and often perilous world of seafaring.
In the Heart of the Sea is based on the true story of the whaling ship Essex, which was famously attacked by a sperm whale in 1820. The film explores themes of survival, loss, and the conflict between man and nature. Directed by Ron Howard, it features exceptional performances from Chris Hemsworth as Owen Chase, the ship's first mate, and Cillian Murphy as Thomas Nickerson, a young crew member. The cinematic portrayal of the Essex's harrowing journey encapsulates the treacherous conditions of the sea, as well as the psychological turmoil faced by the crew during their struggle for survival.
Historical Context: The film draws heavily from Nathaniel Philbrick's non-fiction book, which details the real-life events that inspired Herman Melville's classic novel Moby Dick.
Visual Effects: Utilizing cutting-edge technology, the movie intricately depicts the fierce battles between man and whale, showcasing the grandeur and violence of the ocean.
Themes of Survival: Alongside the physical challenges presented by the sea, the film also emphasizes the moral dilemmas faced by the crew as they fight for their lives.
The Perfect Storm, directed by Wolfgang Petersen, recounts the 1991 true story of a group of fishermen caught in a massive storm while attempting to return to shore. This film stars George Clooney as Captain Billy Tyne and Mark Wahlberg as his crew member. The looming storm, which is depicted as a convergence of several weather systems, creates a dramatic atmosphere filled with tension and uncertainty. The film not only details the physical aspects of a storm at sea but also explores the relationships between the crew members and their personal struggles.
True Events: The film is based on Sebastian Junger's non-fiction book, which chronicles the last fishing trip of the Andrea Gail.
Emotional Impact: Viewers are drawn into the lives of the fishermen, making the eventual tragedy feel all the more poignant.
Stunning Visuals: The film utilizes advanced special effects to recreate the horrifying and mesmerizing power of the storm, providing viewers with a visceral experience.
Together, In the Heart of the Sea and The Perfect Storm create a powerful cinematic experience that underscores not only the unpredictability of the ocean but also the indomitable nature of the human spirit in the face of adversity. This DVD set is perfect for enthusiasts of maritime adventures, as it offers not only entertainment but also a deep reflection on the relationship between mankind and the natural world.
Both films are equipped with bonus features that include:
Behind-the-scenes footage
Interviews with cast and crew
Documentary segments about the real-life events and the making of the films.
An ideal addition to any film collection, this DVD serves as a tribute to those who brave the seas and the stories that emerge from their extraordinary journeys.

WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
