[PSUBS-MAILIST] Sub movie coming...

TODAY'S SIGN THE WORLD IS ENDING
Hollywood is planning to make a movie about a crippled Russian submarine
in danger of exploding. Sound familiar? Harrison Ford says he wants to play
the captain of a Soviet submarine whose nuclear reactor is about to melt
down.
However, the movie -- to be called "K-19" -- is not yet a done deal.
Producers are caught in a shrinking window of opportunity as they try to
meet Ford's salary demands -- said to be in excess of $20 million -- and
finish filming before a possible actors strike next summer. According to
Variety, the texture could be much like that of "Das Boot," the
claustrophobic film in which common sailors do extraordinary things.
