Dennis Quaid helps tell an almost unbelievable true story in the Netflix movie Blue Miracle.
The 67-year-old actor plays Captain Wade Malloy, who along with a group of orphaned Mexican boys and their guardian Omar (Jimmy Gonzales), enter into the world s biggest fishing tournament to save their orphanage. I really like playing real people… to tell you the truth even more [than fictional], Quaid told Fox News while promoting the film.

And when you re doing a movie about a real person, you can t say ‘Ohhh, all this would never happen, because it did! he added.
