“The Hunt for Red October” is a timeless adventure movie whose appeal is never ending but the real hunt for the real Red October ended last week. Daniel Catone, a Wyoming financial advisor, took delivery of the actual submarine model used in the 1990 spy thriller after buying it in an online auction.
“Growing up, I’d watch this movie over and over. Never in my wildest dreams did that little boy think he’d own the submarine itself,” Catone tweeted last weekend when the ship arrived. “Life is wild like that.”
