I was on the plane a couple days ago and noticed in the contemporary section “The Hunt for Red October”. Being one of my favorite films, I checked out the trailer as a quick refresher and to help me decide if I was in the mood for young Baldwin and Connery. As I was watching the trailer, the passenger to my right was playing “Taken 2” (of course I couldn’t hear it playing, only watch across the aisle). I was reminded how far we’ve come from the slower-paced thriller, watching the kinetic cutting of “Taken 2” against the slow build of Red October. I miss movies like this. I watched as much of it as I could before being told I had to remove my earphones for landing…. – Jesse
