Trivia: THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER

Post by dragon53 »

TRIVIA---Tom Clancy, who wrote THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER, died 12 years ago on October 1, 2013.
In THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER, CIA analyst Jack Ryan leads a top secret Pentagon meeting about a new stealthy Soviet submarine whose mission is to launch nuclear-armed missiles at the US. A Navy admiral replies, "God-amned thing's made to start a war...oh my god, they've got a madman on their hands"-----the admiral was played by director John McTiernan's father, John McTiernan, Sr.
