Movie prep

1. Who are the main characters you would expect to see in the movie, based on the real life events?
The main characters in this movie are Captain Phillips, Abduluwaii, and Captain Larry.
2. Briefly, in 2-3 paragraphs, tell me what you expect the plot to be in the movie, based on the real life events?
     I'm exactly sure about what will be happening in this movie, but I am expecting the whole or most of the story to be on the boat or ship. The pirates will come invade the ship, while all the crew members lock themselves in the engine room. Then the pirates will take Phillip off to there own boat in Somali.  I am guessing the main part of the movie will be him with the pirates and them torturing him.
     After the pirates holding on to him the Navy finally comes to the rescue and saves Captain Phillip. The pirate tried to plead guilty kidnapping but was put to jail for 33 years. Phillip was waiting and wanting to get back out on sea. His feels as if his crew would be safe and they would have nothing to worry about. I'm not sure how this story is going to play out so I want to see how they did it.
     
3. Why was this story important?
     This story is very important and interesting now to read about and watch. This was the first pirate attack that was successful and that they kidnapped and hijacked a ship. They were so young and had the power to hijack and take the Captain of a ship.
4. Why did the pirates try to take the ship?
     The pirates tried to take the ship because they wanted the insurance money after they were to take it. And the supplies that were on the ship.
