19. The 1900 Story (1998)
A infant, abandoned on the transatlantic liner a fictional ship, grows up to be a accomplished musician (the lead actor) who refuses to leave the vessel. The peak moment of Giuseppe Tornatore's fantastical tale is Roth battling a keyboard contest with Jelly Roll Morton, somewhat unjustly shown as a arrogant character.
18. Ocean Planet (1995)
The lead actor plays a warrior-esque wanderer with mutated appendages and a modified trimaran in this high-cost futuristic thriller, set in a distant time where melting polar ice-caps have inundated the Earth. Everyone is hunting for legendary terra firma while fighting off the villain and his band of chain-smoking raiders.
17. RMS Titanic (1997)
An extended period of love story development between a upper-class woman (the female lead) and an free-spirited artist (Leonardo DiCaprio) are rescued by James Cameron's spectacular recreation of a famous well-known disasters.

16. Boat of Lunatics (1965)
Commoners, flamenco dancers and political extremists rub shoulders on a commercial vessel journeying from Mexico to the Old World in 1933. The director's large-scale film includes Vivien Leigh, in her swan song, as a sad divorcee, but it's a co-star, as the ship's doctor, and a talented performer, as a radical countess, who provide the movie with its dramatic punch.
15. The Last Voyage (1960)
The central vessel is ripped apart in an explosion and the protagonist's partner (the actress) is stuck in their quarters in this gripping proto-disaster pic. Is it possible for the hero and a heroic engineer (the supporting player) free her prior to the ship sinks? Interesting note: the Claridon is represented by the famous historic ship a real ship.
14. Murder on the Nile (1978)
Angela Lansbury are part of the murder suspects on board a Nile paddle steamer in this celebrity-filled crime novelist murder mystery.

13. Ocean Stillness (1989)
Sam Neill act as a married couple trying to get over the pain of their offspring's demise by sailing their boat for a trip in the ocean, where they recover Billy Zane from a foundering ship. Poor decision! This filmmaker's suspense film is basically a horror film at sea, but an ultra-classy one that launched her career.
12. The Maggie (1954)
An Englishman, transporting goods for an US businessman, is tricked into using a run-down "Clyde puffer" in the director's brutal Ealing comedy in the rebellious tradition of his own previous work.

11. Overwhelming Power (1974)
Richard Lester imparts his catastrophe film a political dimension perspective in this anxiety-inducing tale of explosives placed on a passenger ship, the main setting. Red wire or blue wire? Two lead actors portray demolition specialists; a supporting player, as the vessel's activities coordinator, serves up a heartbreaking study in humorous tragedy.
10. Poseidon's Journey (1972)
This film version of Paul Gallico's book is one of the high points of the seventies catastrophe films. The central vessel is capsized by a tsunami, and it's the job of Reverend Gene Hackman to direct his followers through the upturned vessel to safety. a supporting player is remarkable as a small business owner's partner with a practical history of athletic swimming.
9. Everything's Gone (2013)
The lead actor provides a experienced brilliant acting in one-man show as a man struggling to endure in the Indian Ocean after his personal boat, the Virginia Jean, is harmed in a impact with an lost cargo box. It's stressful enough to view, so one can only imagine how exceptionally strenuous it must have been for the elderly actor to record.
8. Ship Commander (2013)
Tom Hanks delivers sterling work in among his everyman-in-crisis characters, as the captain of an commercial transport seized by maritime criminals off the specific location. His performance is complemented by Barkhad Abdi ("I control this vessel"), making a remarkable film debut as the raider leader in Paul Greengrass's tense movie, derived from real events. If the last scene doesn't bring tears, you're not human.
7. Triangle (2009)
