"Naomi Watts, she's brave – she's not afraid of talking any kind of risk to get to points where you as a director never thought you were going to be," says the film's helmer Juan Antonio Bayona.

On DVD and Blu-ray Tuesday, The Impossible finds Naomi as Maria and Ewan as her husband Henry, who are enjoying their winter vacation in Thailand with their three sons. On the day after Christmas, their relaxing holiday in paradise becomes an exercise in terror and survival when their beachside hotel is pummeled by an extraordinary, unexpected tsunami.
