Tom
Hanks
The "A" List
By Addie Dinkle
Tom Hanks stars in the soon to be released,"The Terminal".
An immigrant (Hanks) fleeing the war that ravages his tiny Eastern
European homeland finds himself stuck in the terminal of one
of New York City's airports when the time of his landing coincides
precisely with the point at which the war causes his nation
of origin to no longer exist, meaning that his passport and
paperwork are no longer valid.
As a man without a home, he takes up residence in the terminal
itself, befriending the staff of the airport, and falling in
love with an airline flight attendant (Zeta-Jones).
