The true story of determined young sailor Jessica Watson (Teagan Croft) is chronicled in Netflix’s True Spirit. The feature, co-starring Josh Lawson and Oscar winner Anna Paquin (The Piano) as her parents, hits the streamer on February 3. Check out the trailer!
Cliff Curtis co-stars as Ben Bryant, Jessica Watson’s mentor who prepares her for the challenging journey of sailing solo. Watson’s goal was to sail solo around the world sans assistance. She would spend 210 days on the ocean, becoming the youngest person to accomplish the feat.
Sarah Spillane wrote and directed the feature. She previously directed Christina Ricci in the 2013 movie Around The Block.
Since Margaret is one of my favorite films from the past 20 years, I will watch anything starring Anna Paquin that comes my way. I am not a big TV watcher, so I have not seen Croft’s work on Titans. Looking forward to seeing this film when it hits Netflix on February 3.
Check out the trailer and let us know if True Spirit is on your watch list!
