TRAILER: Sully

Slate recaps:

Tom Hanks is in full voice-of-authority mode in the trailer for Sully, Clint Eastwood’s upcoming film about Capt. Chesley Sullenberger, the pilot who successfully ditched US Airways Flight 1549 in the Hudson River, saving everyone aboard. The landing, from the plane’s initial encounter with a flock of geese to touchdown, took only three minutes and ended with everyone alive, which leaves a lot of time for the film to fill—it looks like Eastwood will be filling it with the aftermath: Sullenberger’s post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms and the subsequent Federal Aviation Administration investigation into the crash.

Here’s my first post on the crash as it was happening.
