28. "Greyhound" (2020)

World War II Movie Night returns with something brand new! The global pandemic bumped Tom Hanks' new WWII movie from theaters, losing its big summer opening. So we caught "Greyhound" upon its online premiere. A US captain shepherds a large convoy to England, desperately trying to reach air cover as they fend off U-boats in 'the Black Pit.' Hanks said this movie holds up a magnifying glass to the Battle of the Atlantic... Asides include thoughts on the Covid-19 situation ('cause of course everyone was waiting for my take).
