40. News of the World - a podcast by Lit to Lens

In episode four of the "2021 Oscar Bait" season, the guys discuss "News of the World".

The book, written by Paulette Jiles and published in 2016, was adapted for the screen in 2020.

The film was directed by Paul Greengrass and written by Greengrass and Luke Davies. It stars Tom Hanks and newcomer Helena Zengel.

The conversation ranges from the book's unique prose, the adaptation's odd and confusing changes, the hype around Helena Zengel's performance, and whether or not Tom Hanks' career is now on a decline.
