...in the movie "Abyss" , supporting the crew while performing "Willin", sung by Linda Ronstadt. What type of cassette recorder is this ?
Looks like a Sony Sports boombox, like this one Second Hand Sony CFS-930 Sports AM/FM Radio Cassette Boombox for 135 EUR in Loures | Wallapop
You`re right, - but almost all of the sports models are yellow/orange coloured. After a while ( i`ve added "military" to the search) i found this seems to be a special edition in olive green.
The type in the movie is a CFS-920 Sports - it`s water resistant ( all of the Sports models ? ) - and this make sense in a Submarine...
You would hope that in a submarine the water resistance wouldn't need testing. As for the colour I suspect it is just moody lighting making the colour look strange.
quote " making the colour look strange" - you`ll laugh - one of the main scenes of the movie is, when Bud has to cut the ground wire ( " the blue wire with the white stripes, not the black wire with the yellow stripes..." ) of the bomb, - but because his hand light is yellow-green, he can`t check the right colour of the wires. You could be right, but i prefer the idea, she has a Special Edition ;-)
