"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

In a sense, it can be regarded as a reverse revision of John Ford's "The Searcher", a very safe and mediocre reality catering, but for Ford's image aesthetics is full of nostalgia, so the expression becomes so cheap, audiovisual Like being betrayed by the director himself, "Green Grass"'s personal emotions fell on the "media person", but it seemed to follow the crowd unconsciously, and the breath of exhaustion permeated the whole work.

American Western movie starring Tom Hanks. The acting skills are of course good, and only that. This year, the Oscars in the United States should be a small year. Several high-profile films have relatively small topics, with many personal and unpopular themes; humanity, society, and era development are insufficient. Although the artistic performance is excellent, it seems that there are no masterpieces handed down.
