Not sure if this is what they were going for but: consider if there was an @andersoncooper or a @billoreilly in the aftermath of the Civil War? This may be the sociopolitical side of @newsoftheworldmovie yet that seems to be the concept in the film rendition of the book. Although set in Texas, this is truly a story of the South, failed and defeated, yet told on their turf. Although anyone watching the film will recognize evil when it appears, @tomhanks acts as a witness to where this violence and racism comes from — particularly through the role of a paternal guardian to @helena.zengel.official. This is the contemporary commentary we expect from Paul Greengrass, yet this film has much more in common with “The Theory of Flight” (1998) than the line-up of thrillers he’s done since then. Make no mistake, @newsoftheworldmovie has suspense, but Greengrass is significantly more fixated on coping with death. Hollywood has spent decades glamorizing the wild west (circa. 1850s —to— 1890s), yet this drama is a raw depiction of the era, displaying the unruly chaotic of these outpost cities and wild plaines. 🎞🎞🎞🎞🎞 #NewsoftheWorld #PaulGreengrass #TomHanks #HelenaZengel #RayMcKinnon #ElizabethMarvel #MichaelAngeloCovino #film #filmmaking #filmmaker #movie #movies #moviereview #cinema #cinematography #screenplay #PauletteJiles #actor #actress #news #newspapers #fakenews #CivilWar #South #Texas #DallasTexas #SanAntonio #WildWest #NativeAmerican https://www.instagram.com/p/CJTlplpBE6Q/?igshid=180tdhmaeu5cq
