Stark reminder of the times when human society did not have digitized access to information or entertainment and had to rely on the printed word for their news, which would often reach the distant parts long after the incident has happened. Tom Hanks essays the role of Captain Jefferson ‘Kyle’ Kidd, a Civil War veteran, who goes around Texas reading newspapers, periodicals, etc. Directed by Paul Greengrass – (he’d also directed Tom Hanks in Captain Philips‘), this is a different genre, but equally well put together by the team. Based on the novel of the same name by Paulette Jiles, the incidents take place in Texas, in the 1870s and is an eminently watchable movie, not least because of Tom Hanks’s soothing presence. Tom Hanks had two releases in 2020, Greyhound and now News of the World (strategically released on Christmas Day, 2020). My Rating : 4 out of 5 Plot Summary – News of the World Conclusion – Movie Review – News of the World.Movie Review – News of the World – 2020 – Tom Hanks pulls off another stunner!.
