The Terminal
Life is waiting…
Viktor Navorski (Tom Hanks), a man from an Eastern European country arrives
in New York but after he left his country; war broke out and because of that
Navorski is a man without a country that the U.S. can recognize, thus he is
denied entrance to the U.S. However, he also can't be deported so he is told by
the Security Manager that he has to remain in the airport until his status can
be fixed. And also Navorski doesn't speak English well, so noone can talk to him
and he can't talk to anyone.
But he somehow adapts and sets up residence in the airport, which makes the
man who placed him there unhappy cause, it seems he is line for a promotion but
Navroski's presence might complicate that. So he tries to get Navorski to leave
but Navorski remains where he is. Navorski makes friends with some of the people
who work in the airport and is attracted to flight attendant Amelia Warren
(Catherine Zeta-Jones) he runs into whenever she comes in.
