By Dawn’s Early Light (AKA The Grand Tour) is an HBO original movie, aired in 1990 and set in 1991. It is based on the 1983 novel Trinity's Child, written by William Prochnau. The film is one of the last to depict the events of a fictional World War III before the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War.

  • Would love to see a reboot of this movie! One of the best 90s film ever, and I wasn't even born yet!

    I served on the USS Pennsylvania, and my peeve about the movie is the false portrayal that Ohio-class subs are out of contact for seven hours lol. We had constant communication to the national command authority. Today, a US first strike would come from the subs as most warheads are now aboard subs.

    I never even knew this movie existed until today.2021..31 years later..I was 17 when this movie dropped.

    One of the Greatest and Scariest movies on WW3. The book “Trinity’s Child” was better but this was a phenomenal movie and very true to the facts and protocol of a real world nuclear war.

    50:00 Using a 1 megaton nuke to destroy 2 fighters - one of the most expensive kills in movie combat.
  • Great movie. Very entertaining and scary although it seems very optimistic in that EMP didn’t knock out all electronics. Based on Trinity’s Child by William Prochnau. Good read too! Grew up during this era. Always scared that the missiles would fly.

    Every line JEJ delivers in this movie is literally flawless. One of the true GOATS.
  • This movie scared the shit out of my Dad when I was a kid. When it came on TV a week later he made me watch it with him, and scared the shit out of me. Funny enough it's one of my "chicken soup" movies now. Great flick. Can sit down and watch it again at least once a year and still love it. (Whoever uploaded this is a hero by the way). Crazy the part in the movie where China attacks the Soviets, because of our treaty with them...
  • I love these late 80s early 90s eras nuclear cold war films. It's kinda amazing to think HBO was making good original films this long ago.
  • Rebecca De Mornay sure looks good in the copilot's seat. Thats some Risky Business. Sadly, this movie is more relevant today than when it was made. You get what you vote for.
  • Very chilling line of this movie; "I'd say 50,000 people just died."
  • It's strange that a civil air traffic centre would spot the suspect track, when Turkey has an extensive air defence system... but apart from that I love this movie.
  • Y’all know Cassidy and Moreau got it on in that cockpit before that BUFF ran outta fuel!!!!
  • So..., Darth Vader was left in charge of our retaliatory strike. Hmmm.🤔

    I feel like this movie in light of deteriorating global events has become more relevant again. Unfortunately... People don’t realize most of the weapons from the Cold War are still operational and hypothetically a scenario like this could still happen.
  • Good movie. I never caught this one before. At first I thought it was gonna be hokey, but it wasn't. That ending was something.
  • This movie brings back so many memories of the years leading up to this film. Now that I think about it, the fall of communist russia and living through it and being able to talk about it is actually a pretty big deal. Huh. How about that.
