The Inspiration Behind the New Movie "News of the World"
The new movie "News of the World" captures a deeply fractured America from an earlier age. It’s the first western from director Paul Greengrass, best known for the Bourne films and "Captain Phillips." The story follows a Civil War veteran -- played by Tom Hanks -- who comes across a young orphan girl and sets out to reunite her with her family. Greengrass joins the show to discuss the film.
