'Deepwater Horizon' (2016)

We return to the ocean this week and tackle our first true disaster movie. The oil spill from this tragedy still causes damage to this day, and even though we can probably all draw a basic picture of what an oil rig looks like, how much do we really know about how they work and what they do? Fortunately, that's not officially our job - but it was the job of many aboard this rig in the Gulf of Mexico and the failings that occurred were not solely down to bad luck. Why was this disaster not failsafe prevented? Who was really to blame? And does anyone care what BP think of the film?! Join us to find out on That's Not How It Went Down!
