Interview, July, 2000 by Thelma Adams
Directed by Wolfgang Petersen
There are a number of places more harrowing than a Chicago E.R., and actor George Clooney seems hell-bent on finding every one. After confronting nuclear holocaust--and the vagaries of live television--in Fail Safe and stealing Saddam's gold in Three Kings, he heads off to the stormy Atlantic in this white knuckler. Based on Sebastian Junger's 1997 bestseller, Clooney and his Kings costar Mark Wahlberg play fishermen on the Andrea Gail's tragic last voyage. These men in slickers confront 100-foot waves and their own mortality without the benefit of Stephen King.
