The Perfect Storm (2000)
Movie: The Perfect Storm (2000)
“In October 1991, a confluence of weather conditions combined to form a killer storm in the North Atlantic. Caught in the storm was the sword-fishing boat Andrea Gail. Magnificent foreshadowing and anticipation fill this true-life drama while minute details of the fishing boats, their gear and the weather are juxtaposed with the sea adventure.

Tagline: In the Fall of 1991, the "Andrea Gail" left Gloucester, Mass. and headed for the fishing grounds of the North Atlantic. Two weeks later, an event took place that had never occurred in recorded history.
Trivia: The first movie the crew of the Andrea Gail watches right before Bobby confronts Billy, is Pale Rider (1985).
Goofs: Incorrectly regarded as goofs: While Murph waits for his son outside the bar he takes four drags from a cigarette; while not all viewers saw it, he does in fact exhale at least once.
