          *this, not thus. Either autocorrect is getting worse or I am

          Tonight's all action fandango was Crimson Tide (1995), in which Denzel Washington and Gene Hackman engage in learned disputation over whether or not to fire their submarine's nuclear missiles. Good stuff, if rather along the lines of most films set in modern submarines, as opposed to ones in black and white submarines which tended mainly to focus on Richard Attenborough losing his nerve.

          Goodnight all

                  Did Dickie make a career of losing his nerve?

                  The one instance that springs to mind is "In which we serve" as the cowardly stoker, alongside Noel Coward (rather before the Italian Job made his career).

                  I'm not a Gene Hackman fan, but the film is rather good.

                  Mostly because of Washington.

                  It's as humid as a gorilla's armpit out there.

                  And the dehumidifier is filling up every 12 hours in here at the moment.

                  In an unexpected change, the new owners of next door are turning up this afternoon to collect their accumulated mail.

                    There was also Morning Departure (1950), where he cracked under the strain of being trapped in a submarine, though he ultimately redeemed himself.
