The villain, since even the cheeriest fairy tale must have one, is an ambitious, humorless Homeland Security functionary named Frank Dixon, played with pursed lips and narrowed eyes by Stanley Tucci.

The director's lyrical view of flight was evident long before ''Catch Me if You Can,'' his soulful, finger-popping evocation of the golden age of commercial aviation: it could be glimpsed in the flashing spaceship lights at the end of ''Close Encounters'' in the soaring bicycle of ''E.T.'' even in the Japanese fighter planes of ''1941'' and ''Empire of the Sun.'' (Tact forbids me from saying too much about ''Always.'') ''The Terminal,'' at once following this preoccupation to its logical conclusion and (so to speak) flying in the face of it, is, improbably and enchantingly, about the romance of being stuck on the ground. Spielberg has transformed this quintessential modern nightmare of interrupted air travel into a vision of earthly paradise. Which makes it all the more remarkable that Mr. To be trapped indefinitely in a terminal, then, without recourse to either flight or ground transportation, can be imagined as a kind of living death, a nerve-racking state of perpetual limbo. Its etymology - termini were the local gods whose shrines served as boundary markers in the ancient Roman world - suggests a frontier between worlds, while its modern medical usage associates the word with mortality. But the word terminal itself, which supplies the title for Steven Spielberg's new film opening today nationwide, also has some darker connotations that tug against its unassuming everyday meaning.
