Crimson Tide: Bumble Butt

Welcome back to Submarine Month, and today we are diving deeper into the psychological stresses of being in a confined metal tube for weeks at a time. We have Denzel Washington and Gene Hackman arguing about the right way to use nuclear missiles. (And guess what, one of them is right and one is very very wrong.) Brennan references War Games several times (I can't help that it's good at explaining nuclear warfare), and Erin talks about how Tony Scott got around the US Navy by using the power of PUBLIC DOMAIN BABY! To be honest, we get very real with this movie and how it's a film of its time. And despite the fictional nature of the narrative, we see how it's being implemented today. But don't get too disheartened, next week is Das Boot!
