Probably not, but that's what saturation divers -- who live in pressurized chambers for weeks while working deep below the ocean surface -- do every time they take an assignment, as deftly depicted in Last Breath,
“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.
The actor does a deep dive on his new feature with Simu Liu and Woody Harrelson, before looking back on his Cillian Murphy crime drama.
Liu had a different perspective on the subject. He found more similarities in the “lifestyle” of acting, like having to leave home for several months to shoot a project. The deep-sea divers in Last Breath were going on a 28-day expedition; it can be even longer for actors on movie sets.
The film, based on real events, follows commercial diver Chris Lemons, who was stranded deep underwater with no oxygen, no light and no way to escape. What should have been a routine job turned into a race against time,
Woody Harrelson, Simu Liu and Finn Cole play a deep-sea diving team in the incredible true story "Last Breath."
A routine deep sea diving mission in the North Sea goes terribly wrong when a young diver is stranded some 300 feet below the surface in the new film “Last Breath.”
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.
They had an oxygen bar stationed in the lobby at the press screening for the underwater survival thriller “Last Breath,” and I have a couple of thoughts about that: A., I’m glad there wasn’t a similar promotional gimmick tied to the screening of “The Substance” last year.
A true-story adventure to make you gasp, Last Breath recounts a tale of survival set in one of the most dangerous environments known to humankind, one that is every bit as inhospitable and perilous as those more obviously cinematic realms of outer space or the peaks of the Himalayas — 300 feet below the surface of the North Sea.
Alex Parkinson's film is about a saturation diving accident that took place in 2012. In its journalistic way the film takes you down and lifts you up.
