Here is the synopsis for “Unbroken”:

Academy Award winner Angelina Jolie directs and produces “Unbroken”: an epic drama that follows the incredible life of Olympian and war hero Louis “Louie” Zamperini (Jack O’Connell). Along with two other crewmen, Zamperini survived in a raft for 47 days after a near-fatal plane crash in World War II only to be caught by the Japanese Navy and sent to a prisoner-of-war camp.

Adapted from Laura Hillenbrand’s enormously popular book “Seabiscuit: An American Legend,” “Unbroken” brings to the big screen Zamperini’s unbelievable and inspiring true story about the resilient power of the human spirit.

Starring alongside O’Connell are Domhnall Gleeson and Finn Wittrock as Phil and Mac – the airmen with whom Zamperini endured perilous weeks adrift in the open Pacific – along with Garrett Hedlund and John Magaro as fellow POWs who find an unexpected camaraderie during their internment. Alex Russell is featured as Zamperini’s brother, Pete, and in his English-language feature debut, Japanese actor Miyavi is the brutal camp guard known only to the men as “The Bird”.

The film is produced by Jolie as well as Clayton Townsend (“This is 40”), Matthew Baer (“City by the Sea”) and Erwin Stoff (“The Day the Earth Stood Still”). Leading the accomplished behind-the-scenes crew is 11-time Oscar-nominated cinematographer Roger Deakins (“Skyfall”). Academy Award winners Joel and Ethan Coen (“No Country for Old Men”) rewrote the screenplay from earlier drafts by William Nicholson (“Les Misérables”) and Richard LaGravenese (HBO’s “Behind the Candelabra”).

HollywoodChicago.com works hard to coordinate our giveaways for you with the movie studios. If you enter to win and are fortunate enough to be awarded, we expect you to attend. If you reply saying you can’t attend – or don’t show up at all without notifying us – that opportunity goes to waste and another lucky HollywoodChicago.com winner misses out on enjoying what you would have. We use various forms of tracking technologies to know whether or not you attended. When you win and don’t attend, reputation points will be counted against you and you’ll win less frequently. If you enter to win, please make sure you can attend if you do win. Thank you.
