In the movie "News for the World" in 2020 by Paul Greengrass, "News for the World", Tom Hanks plays Captain Kid, a former confeder travels through Texas in 1870, turned his new career. Because newspapers do not make the way to the rural parts of the country and because it is written, Kid earns several weak cents by driving from city to city newspapers loudly to locals in exchange for admission compensation. The post -war Texas is a strict and scary place. He barely survives.

On the way, he passes a nigga lynch, and, in the abandoned man's cart, finds Johanna (Jelena Zengel), a young blonde girl who, only Kiova. Kid reveals that he has been abducted by the people of Kiova six years ago, and she was raised among them. She was recently kidnapped by Union troops and was taken to her relatives in Texas when her driver was killed. Kid, after some bureaucratic complications, chooses to bring Johanna back to the relatives themselves. A friend who speaks Kiova helps Kid learn that Johanna Kiova's family has been killed and that her new name is Cikada. Most of the film follows Kid and Johanna on their long way on the road, with Kid standing on the way to read the newspapers - and occasionally killing the former Rufian Confederates who want to buy and/or describe Ciccade.

"News to the World" was supposed to be, according to its tone, story and pedigree, a film for the highest order. Greengrass has long been celebrated for his cruel, smooth style, and Hanks remains one of the most important movie stars in the world. The film was scheduled for Christmas in 2020, however, in the early days of the Kovid-19 pandemic. The $ 38 million film made just $ 12.7 million, and he disappeared from consciousness. This is a pity, because the "news of the world" is quite good.

"News to the World" was supposed to be more widely discussed because it was timely. Came exactly at the end of Donald Trump's first administration, administration Shaken by dozens of scandals And marked by the president constantly whining for a positive coverage of the news. In "News for the World", some of the small towns that Kid visit just want to hear a very specific kind of news. Namely, Kid enters Farry (Gabriel Ebert), a racist militia leader who asks him that Kid has read stories of pro-Milicia who celebrate him personally. The film is about how selective news cover is equivalent to propaganda, something that (and still still) was happening open in the real world.

All this was in the midst of a bigger story of the scars left to the nation after the civil war. The image of Johanna was left without a home, abandoned by society for her association with the Kiova people. She was left alone with violence, war and racism. Kid, meanwhile, grows into a better person, quietly realizing that his fellow citizens are terrible people. He is alone in the world after his wife died (from cholera) during the war, so he and Johanna are beginning to tie up as an ERSC family. "News to the World" is shocking and significantbut also moves emotionally cruel. Greengrass and cinematographer Darius Volsky shoot the film with more grace and classicism than usual, avoiding the usual director of the director, a handheld camera. "News to the World" is also a classic Hollywood melodrama and a rough political drama.

Critics were positive, and "News for the World" currently has an 88% approval of "wounded tomatoes", based on 270 views. Only because of the bad distribution "News for the World" went unprecedented.

The main criticism of "News for the World" seemed to be its slow pace and episode structure.

The bad pattern of "news of the world" distribution condemns it. As mentioned, it was announced during the height of the theater closure, holding the audience away. Even his Christmas date did not put him at the forefront of the Oscars conversation. However, he managed to use four nominations, for cinematography, result, production design and sound.

"News to the World" was originally green from Fox Way in 2017, but it was handed over to Universal after The notorious acquisition of Disney/Fox. When he finally came out, he felt like one of the many properties that Disney did not embark on during what was essentially a firefighting industry. Then, to complete the curse of the film, it was released in empty theaters. Perhaps in less tumultuous time, "news of the world" would have gained more eyeballs, more attention to the prizes, and even more substantial recognition. Of course, it can find a new audience very well, as the world is currently withstanding Trump's second term and His tendencies to attack news remain strong. Unfortunately, "news of the world" remains as always.
