Crimson Tide

About this episode

Submarines. They’re like whales, but not as majestic and far more likely to destroy innocent boats, at least this century. Submarines are nice because when you’ve run out of terrestrial and aerial space to put explosives they offer a convenient new arena in which to store devices of unimaginable destruction. I’m referring to nuclear-armed submarines, and it’s not hard to imagine that, in times of crisis, different people crewing these vessels will have different ideas on how to run things. I’m not just talking about the human fallibility that we’re supposed to assume somehow doesn’t apply to those in charge of these weapons, I’m talking about the 1995 submarine thriller Crimson Tide directed by Tony Scott. This successful action movie landed well with critics and audiences, but the crotchety hosts of Magellans at the Movies are not so easy to impress. What will they say about all the underwater action? Turn the launch key and let’s dive, dive, dive in to find out!
