I was watching Crimson Tide the other day. For those who don’t know it’s a film set in a Cold War era US submarine which receives an order to launch a nuclear attack on the USSR. The first officer gets into a huge argument with the captain, who has sole authority to launch nuclear missiles, after communications are lost and starts a mutiny, which ultimately saves the world.
