Tom Hanks debuts a new film Friday on Apple TV+. "Greyhound" tells the story of a Navy commander who defended an Atlantic convoy from Nazi submarines in World War II.

NPR TV critic Eric Deggans says the taut thriller is the latest example of the movie industry turning to streaming as theaters remain closed. While the trend was already happening before 2020, the worldwide pandemic may cement it.

This segment aired on July 10, 2020.
