Based on Tom Clancy's bestseller, "The Hunt for Red October" seethes with high-tech excitement and the tension of men who hold Doomsday in their hands. A new, technologically superior Soviet nuclear sub, the Red October, is heading for the U.S. coast under the command of Captain Marko Ramius. The American government thinks Ramius is planning to attack. A lone CIA analyst has a different idea: he thinks Ramius is planning to defect, but he has only a few hours to find him and prove it. The entire Russian naval and air commands are trying to find him, too. 1990 135 min
