An
illegal 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are no longer valid.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. |
Is
this uber-Schmaltz or what? |
