About The Terminal in brief
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 becomes stuck in New York’s John F. Kennedy Airport terminal when he is denied entry into the United States. It is partially inspired by the true story of the 18-year stay of Mehran Karimi Nasseri in Terminal 1 of Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport, France, from 1988 to 2006. Due to a lack of suitable airports willing to provide their facilities for the production, an entire working set was built inside a large hangar at the LAPalmdale Regional Airport, but a lot of general inside shots and most of the film’s exterior shots were from the Montréal–Mirabel International Airport. The movie was released in North America on June 18, 2004 to mixed reviews and was a commercial success, earning USD 219 million worldwide. It has been noted that some have noted that the film appears to beinspired by the story of Iranian refugee Sir Alfred NasserI, also known as Sir Alfred, who lived in Terminal One of his refugee camp in Paris from 1988-2006.
