News of the World (2020)

 


 

A Civil War veteran agrees to deliver a girl, taken by the Kiowa people years ago, to her aunt and uncle, against her will.

Very-well made Neo Western adds modern issues (racism, child abuse) to its narrative, which is heart-felt, but also a bit sentimental, plus some great landscape and realistic cinematography; Helena Zengel is absolutely convincing, and Tom Hanks does his thing - as the Good Samaritan.
