In the follow up film to Sam Mendes‘ American Beauty, this truly remarkable film wins me over ever single time I view it. Personally, I am a huge fan of all Tom Hanks’ work and this is probably my absolute favorite. Tom Hanks plays his role quite a bit more reserved that what I am used to seeing. In doing so, he does more with looks (as opposed to pages of dialog) to convey emotions that come through so believably this was just a fine performance all around.
