With Valentine’s Day weekend hitting us with a void as the coronavirus pandemic continues to play a spoilsport, Tom Hanks starrer ‘News of the World’ is something that one could stream as a leisure watch. A slow burn for most parts, this one is for those who enjoy Tom Hanks doing his magic on the screen but alas this needs a taste and lots of patience to survive the entire run.&nbsp;

Based in the post Civil War phase of America, Tom Hanks plays his paternal best to a young orphan girl who was kidnapped by Red Indians and now identifies herself as one of them as she has forgotten her parents and family and has no home. On a mission to find the girl a home, Tom Hanks traverses through the Western side of the country to reach her last surviving family but that’s not where the story ends.&nbsp;

‘News of the World’ explores the relationship between two strangers who meet accidentally as their paths and futures align surprisingly. Co-written and directed by Paul Greengrass, the film makes you feel bad for both the orphan (Helena Zengel) and Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd (Tom Hanks) while anticipating the end shown in the climax as they journey some miles together in ‘search for a home’. Fighting off scoundrels and looters on the way, Tom Hanks gives it his all in ‘News of the World’ but the screenplay sort-of limits him to a linear role.&nbsp;

Helena Zengel is fantastic as the orphan girl, acting her age -- boorish and defiant in most parts, strong and mindful in others. She matches Tom in every frame, not leaving a scene where she is taken over by Hanks’ towering personality on screen. She’s an actor to look out for.&nbsp;

The film captures America and its rustic state of Texas in that time period of history craftly. A little more pace would have done the film some good.&nbsp;

'News of the World' review: A slow burn, watch it for lead cast Tom Hanks-Helena Zengel

When award-winning actor Tom Hanks announced his Covid-19 diagnosis last year on March, many Americans were still learning about the virus and its severity. However, Hanks` social media posts shaped people`s behaviour toward the virus, a new study suggests. 
 
The researchers, including Jessica Gall Myrick from the Pennsylvania State University in the US, surveyed around 700 people about their attitudes and behaviours toward the virus the day after Hanks posted the news on social media on March 11, 2020. 
 
Just under 90 per cent of the people surveyed had heard about Hanks` social media posts saying he contracted the virus, and approximately half of that group reported it changed their attitudes and behaviours. 
 
"There is a growing body of research about how celebrity behaviour and social media posts can affect public health," Myrick said in the study published in the journal Health Communication. 
 
"Celebrities can have a huge reach, often more so than typical scientists or doctors or the health department. If they are encouraging positive health behaviour change, then it can serve as a de facto public health intervention," Myrick added. 
 
According to the study, the people who had heard the news reported Hanks` diagnosis "highlighted the reality of Covid-19" and broadened their understanding of not only the severity of the situation but also their susceptibility to the illness. 
 
Nearly half of the participants who had heard the news when surveyed reported a range of emotional responses, according to the study. 
 
Responses included "surprise, fear, anger, sadness and hope." 
 
The respondents who reported making changes said Hanks` disclosure inspired them to seek more information and/or take stricter precautions. 
 
The half of respondents who heard the news and said Hanks` diagnosis did not change their thoughts or behaviours reported thinking the actor would recover from the illness. 
 
They also noted they were already aware of Covid-19 and its effects and did not think Hanks` announcement changed their outlook or intentions regarding the virus. 
 
The researchers conducted a statistical analysis to see if and what characteristics could predict whether people`s attitudes and behaviours changed after learning Hanks` diagnosis. 
 
The results indicated that people who identified with Hanks or said they knew him were more likely to change their thoughts or Covid-related behaviours due to the announcement.

In an interview with Collider, Hanks spoke&nbsp;about the impact of the pandemic on the entertainment business, and the shift of many films&nbsp;on streaming services. 
 
"A sea change was due, anyway. It was coming, "Hanks said, sharing that the streaming platforms have allowed viewers to watch movies from their homes. 
 
"Will movie theatres still exist? Absolutely, they will. In some ways, I think the exhibitors -- once they`re up and open -- are going to have the freedom of choice of what movies they`re going to play," Hanks shared. 
 
Hanks believes theatres will remain to be the go-to release option for big-budget franchises.

He said: "Big event motion pictures are going to rule the day at the cinemas. `News of the World` might be the last adult movie about people saying interesting things that are going to play on a big screen somewhere, because after this, in order to guarantee that people show up again, we`re going to have the Marvel Universe and all sorts of franchises."

Hanks continued: "You want to see them (franchise films) writ large because watching them at home on your couch actually might diminish them somehow in their visual punch. But the sea change that has been brought by Covid-19 has been a slow train coming. I think there will be an awful lot of movies that will only be streamed, and I think it will be fine to see them that way because they will actually be built and made and constructed for somebody`s pretty good widescreen TV at their home."

During the discussion with host Savannah Guthrie, the `Forrest Gump` actor also touched on the matter of his coronavirus recovery.

"We`ll be getting it long after everybody who truly needs to get it. But OK, we had it, and it was a tough 10 days, but I think what`s much more important is the second half of the COVID-19 formula is we didn`t give it to anybody," Hanks said.&nbsp; 
 
Hanks also confirmed that he and his wife are still wearing face masks. "Not just so we don`t catch it but so you don`t give it to somebody in case you are one of those asymptomatic carriers," he said.

Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson plan to receive COVID-19 vaccine but on this one condition

It`s taken Tom Hanks more than 35 years to make his first Western so when he finally got on a horse and into a shootout, he wanted to make sure the movie had something special to say. 
 
Hanks, known for playing nice guys, stars in "News of the World," out in US&nbsp;movie theaters on Dec. 25. He joked that he likes to think of the film as "`The Mandalorian,` without light sabers." 
 
"There`s no reason to make a Western just because you get to wear comfortable clothes and a hat. It has to be about something bigger than just the genre," Hanks said. 
 
Set after the US Civil War, the film follows Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd (Hanks) as he travels across a divided America reading the news in small towns. He meets up with a traumatized girl, played by newcomer Helena Zengel, who was taken by the Native American Kiowa tribe years ago and decides to deliver her back to her surviving relatives. 
 
For Hanks and director Paul Greengrass, "News of the World" is about the power of healing after fractious events. 
 
"It felt to me such a contemporary story - the world bitterly divided, (the) post-Civil War landscape, the desperate desire for healing but not knowing what the road to healing looks like," said Greengrass. 
 
Although filming took place more than a year ago, the story takes place against a background of the epidemics of cholera and meningitis that hit the United States in the late 19th century. 
 
Hanks said the eerily prescient arrival of the film this week during the long coronavirus pandemic and the aftermath of divisive US elections in November reflects the power of movie making. 
 
"Here we are, we made a movie that takes place in 1870 and it speaks to 2020. Ain`t that the movies in a nutshell? That you can see a film that is about people riding horses and it`s like `Wow! That`s really speaking about what it`s like today`," he said.

Hollywood actor Tom Hanks and his wife Rita Wilson were probably the first high-profile celebrities to have contracted the coronavirus when the pandemic had just become known to the world. Now, nearly nine months after battling COVID-19, Rita Wilson reveals that she still has antibodies for the coronavirus.&nbsp;

Rita Wilson, an actress-singer, revealed to Jimmy Kimmel, "I still have antibodies!" when the host said, "I feel like you're the only person I don't have to worry about because you must be brimming with antibodies right now.”

Rita Wilson explained that she’s tested "every couple of months" as part of a UCLA program and suggested that others in the study also still have antibodies.

"They test us and so far we still have them," she said. "They diminish as you get farther away from your infection, but they're still there helping us out."

Till date it’s not clear for how long people are infected with the novel coronavirus. However, recent studies have indicated that those who recovered are likely protected for a long period of time.

Still, experts cautioned that those findings are limited and may have been focused on people with mild illness. It's unknown whether Wilson is involved in the same study.
