Finn Cole portrays diver Chris Lemons in the movie, based on the true story of Lemons' survival at the depths of the ocean.
Both the 2019 documentary Last Breath and this new feature recount the true story of a 2012 saturation diving accident, when diver Chris Lemons (played in the movie by Finn Cole) gets trapped 330 feet under the sea, with no heat, no light, and a very small amount of oxygen. Spoiler alert: By a miracle, Lemons lived to tell the tale.
In Last Breath, the ocean is terrifying. It’s claustrophobic despite its expanse, threatening to kill the people most familiar with it. The movie is based on the true story of deep-sea divers who fought to rescue a crewmate trapped hundreds of feet beneath the North Sea,
As Last Breath heads into its second weekend, the film has officially reached a major milestone at the global box office.
Get to know the "absolutely astonishing" true story behind the new movie "Last Breath," which chronicles a 2012 deep-sea diving accident.
In 2012, three deep-sea divers were on a routine operation in the North Sea when one of them became trapped underwater. Liu had to dive in deep, dark water in order to recreate the harrowing rescue.
In September 2012, while attempting to repair an oil pipeline off the coast of Scotland, the diving support ship Bibby Topaz lost control of the automated system of thrusters that held it in place above the repair crew. Buffeted by winds and swells, the ship began to drift away from the divers, 300 feet below on the ocean floor.
Imagine being trapped hundreds of feet below the ocean surface. 'Last Breath' is a nail-biting film based on the true story of the rescue of a diver.
“Last Breath” continues an ongoing trend of fictionalized remakes of the events covered in a prior documentary. This movie uses the 2019 documentary of the same name as its basis. Both films were directed by Alex Parkinson, who uses real-life footage of the people involved during the closing credits of this fictionalized version.
Last Breath is not streaming on Netflix or Prime Video, and likely will not be on Netflix any time soon, due to the fact that, in the U.S., the film is a Focus Features release. Focus Features is a subsidiary of Universal Studios, and almost all Universal movies go to the Universal-owned streaming platform, Peacock.
I’m going to do what I usually do and review the biggest as-yet-unreviewed movie at the weekend box office with “Last Breath.” However, I’m also going to take
iSpot shows that Focus spent roughly half on TV linear ads for Last Breath ($5.1M) than they did for their second-highest grossing hit of all-time stateside, Nosferatu ($10.9M), but that not far from their Oscar nominated Best Picture, Conclave ($6.1M).
