This movie is about a guy who is from Krakozhia, Viktor Navorski, tries to go to America, but his home country gets revolution so that he cannot only enter to America, but also go back to his native country. All he can do in the JFK airport is staying there. He does a lot of things in the airport to live. First thing he does is learning English from things around him such as TV shows, books and etc. He tries to understand what the TV news show says by reading subtitles because information about his own country is the most important for him at that time. Then he uses the words he learned from TV in conversation with Customs and Border Protection officer Dolores. She is always at the room to judge if people can enter to America or not. Victor is no exception. He goes to the room to get an "acceptable" seal. One time he goes that room, he says like "You have two seals; green and red. So getting out of here is half and half." Actually I don't remember exactly what he says, but he says something like that. And then she smiles beautifully. At the moment they are talking, a guy are looking at them. He is Enrique Cruz who likes her. He comes close to Viktor to ask about her. And he makes a deal with Viktor exchanging meals and information about het. This is how Viktor gets his every day food with no money at the airport.
There is one story I want to talk about. That is a guy from another country comes to the airport and he has medicine but doesn't know he needs a prescription from a doctor. He speak Russian, not English so tries to attack people who disturb him and injure himself by a knife because he doesn't have any choice. Everyone wants a person who can speak Russian and persuade him so Viktor is made come there. They talk in Russian for a while. The guy claims the medicine is for his father - his dad needs that medicine seriously. Once he is caught by police, but suddenly Viktor says that medicine is for goats not human. He knows there is a low about medicine. And then the guy goes free and thanks for Viktor a lot. Since this happened, he has been famous all around the airport.
There are so many things I want to tell you, but if I write everything I want, its gonna be too long to write at one time. So I'm gonna stop it here. I just want to say this is an amazing movie so you should check it out! (466)
