The most significant aspect of this struggle lies in the men’s attempts to help one another survive when they are confronted with danger and disaster.
故事取材于克莱恩真实的个人经历。作为一名记者,古巴起义反抗西班牙时,他在前往古巴采访途中被搁浅在海上,因为他乘的船在弗罗里达海滨沉没。斯蒂芬·克莱恩和其他三个人在海上经受住了海水长达三十个小时的暴虐。克莱恩的一个朋友比利·希金斯在游上岸的途中不幸被淹死。这个真实的故事对他们的生命造成严重的威胁,也激发了他们与自然对抗时的情感。
