I finally had some time to watch the new movie News of the World starring Tom Hanks and Helena Zengel on Netflix. It was quite stirring, I love the Western theme. It starts off slow but it's a very absorbing ride along.
The description of News of the World, as stated on iTunes, is:
"Five years after the Civil War, Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd (Academy Award® winner Tom Hanks) moves from town to town as a non-fiction storyteller, sharing the news from the far reaches of the globe. In the plains of Texas, he crosses paths with a 10-year-old girl taken in by the Kiowa people and raised as one of their own. Kidd agrees to deliver the child where the law says she belongs. As they travel hundreds of miles into the unforgiving wilderness, the two face tremendous challenges of both human and natural forces as they search for a place they can call home."
