The True Story Behind Captain Phillips & The Maersk Alabama Hijacking

[هَـ-ђāŵĩ-ـَاوِيتم التحقق من هَـ-ђāŵĩ-ـَاوِي كعضو.]

Tom Hanks' 2013 movie Captain Phillips was based on a true story, and it was surprisingly accurate to what actually happened during the hijacking of the Maersk Alabama. Captain Phillips depicted the true story of the 2009 hijacking of the cargo ship Maersk Alabama by Somali pirates. Hanks played the titular Richard Phillips, and Captain Phillips even included one of Hanks' best scenes ever. Captain Phillips is a very good movie, but it owes much of its acclaim to the true story behind it.
