"News of the World" is a rough road film
with a slow pace and contemplative
. It is not so much a post-war film as a war film, because the collective trauma of a young country still makes This country is tortured and suffering
. The theme of the film is not alienation and loneliness, but connection-two suffering people seek each other's silent comfort and hope of healing
. Tom Hanks exquisitely interprets the tenacity and sincerity of the newspaper reader Jefferson Kyle Kidd
. He brings emotional depth to the character
. Perhaps only his bearded and tired face can be trapped in the mud. The decadent soul brings convincing compassion and grace
. Although Johanna Leonberg, played by Helena Zengel, has almost no lines, she gives the character a strong sense of presence and attraction, and conveys the trauma of the character through the sad eyes and heavy face
. In addition, James Newton Howard's gorgeous and moving soundtrack for the film also laid the epic tone for the film
. Overall, the film is an elaborate drama that conveys a gentle message, which is to examine the pain of the past and hope to find a peaceful and happy hometown in the future

Green Grass is a qualified director's work, Hanks and the little girl have wonderful performances, and the natural light photography lens shows the magnificent scenery of the west. A news reader more than a hundred years ago was indeed a difficult and great profession. It is also very appropriate at the moment, how precious press freedom and value are.

[first lines]
Captain Kidd: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. It's good to be back with you all here in Wichita Falls. My name is Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd, and I'm here tonight to bring you news from across this great world of ours. Now, I know how life is in these parts, working a trade sunup to sundown. No time for reading newspapers. Am I correct?
Towns People: [murmuring agreement]
Captain Kidd: Let me do that work for you. And maybe, just for tonight, we can escape our troubles, and hear the great changes that are happening out there. Starting local, then. Our own Houston Telegraph from the first of February, this news. "The meningitis epidemic continues to spread without prejudice across the Panhandle and North Texas region. So far, it has claimed ninety-seven souls in just a two-month period."
Towns People: [exclaiming softly]
