ITF Watch: The Hunt for Red October (1990 film)

John McTiernan’s action films are undeniable hallmarks of the 80s
and 90s, so how does this Tom Clancy adaptation stack up to his
other noteworthy entries? In episode 162, Luke & James
compare the source material to the film adaptation and ultimately
decide which is the better version.

Topics: Alec Baldwin as a leading man, Sean Connery’s toupee, a
stellar cast that might not get a chance to shine, some smart
simplifying of the plot, Jack Ryan’s expanded role, and the final
vote on which is better: the book or the movie!
