Shane Harris makes no secret about his love for the film version of this Cold War submarine thriller, based on the Tom Clancy novel. It’s his favorite movie. So he was delighted to welcome fellow obsessive Katherine Voyles to the podcast. A PhD in English, Voyles writes about national security in culture, as well as the culture of national security. She and Shane talked about why they love the movie, their favorite scenes and characters, and how the story influenced--maybe even created--an entire genre of fiction. They also discussed why it is, actually, a Christmas movie, and their mutual admiration for the martini.
Voyles’s writing has appeared in in the Los Angeles Review of Books, Foreign Policy, Task &
Purpose, Small Wars Journal, and War on the Rocks. She also works for the Department of Defense.
In addition to the greatest movie of all time, essays, TV shows, books, and restaurants discussed in this episode include:
Colson Whitehead’s “The Way We Live Now” https://www.nytimes.com/2001/11/11/magazine/the-way-we-live-now-11-11-01-lost-and-found.html
Deutschland 83 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4445154/
