The Terminal

The Terminal is a 2004 American comedy-drama film produced and directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Tom Hanks, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Stanley Tucci. The film is about an Eastern European man who is stuck in New York's John F. Kennedy Airport terminal when he is denied entry to the United States, but is unable to return to his native country because of a military coup. The film is partially inspired by the true story of Mehran Karimi Nasseri who lived in Terminal 1 of Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport, France, from 1988 to 2006. After finishing Catch Me If You Can, Spielberg decided to direct The Terminal because he wanted to next make a film "that could make us laugh and cry and feel good about the world". As no suitable airport was willing to provide their facilities, an entire working set was built inside a large hangar at the LA/Palmdale Regional Airport, with most of the film's exterior shots taken from the Montreal–Mirabel International Airport. The film was released in North America on June 18, 2004, to generally positive reviews and was a commercial success, earning $219 million worldwide.

Like this guy, Joe Mulroy. I think you know him. He's been here for 20 years, but he's been running an after-hour poker game. Bringing in liquor and marijuana. Poor guy's going to lose his pension. And I think he has kids, too. Yep. And then there's this guy, Enrique Cruz. I think you also know Enrique. Enrique has been letting people into the food preparation area. That's a major security breach. The poor guy, I think he's a newlywed. But I'm going to have to let him go. And then there's Gupta Rajan. He's a janitor. But he's wanted for assaulting a police officer back in India in 1979.

You make us to think you would walk out, that you will fight with them. Why don't you fight? - The war is over. - Then go. Get lost. Get lost. Go home and tell them you never made it. You come this close to America, but you don't have the courage to go from here to here. You are a coward. The plane is on time. You are a coward. You are a coward! You make me sick! What's wrong with you, man? Settle down. Got people looking all around, looking at me like I'm...
