corner view ≈ my favourite actor {sometimes}


he ain't my favourite actor, let me tell you straight. but only last week i glanced at catch me if you can again, and even in that dicaprio movie, the flying protagonist is easily beat by hanks' sly sort of innocent come on face, when he decides to pull it. so cruisin' along the obvious w3 channels, in search of hankety-hanks e.g.'s, i came across above excerpt, belonging to this coen brothers production, that i seem to have gone and missed! i dunno. i better shimmy on up, sore bone indeed! {demystify yourself by watching the excerpt}
skylar chose this week's theme in jane's corner view, hosted by theresa.

    I caught your smart drift ;)
    I like Catch me if you can... Tom Hanks and all the movies by the brothers Coen.

    Good choice. Hard to pick a fave, eh? But I loved him in "You've Got Mail," and so many other movies...

    Everybody loves Tom. He has a unique talent to charm us all. The Ladykillers is a remake of a 1950s English film which starred Alec Guinness, who was almost as charming as Tom Hanks.

    oh another one whose movies i have never really seen although i heard "catch me" is excellent. i love how the english language remains glorious in the coen bros movies. true grit was very fun in that way too....

    While he isn't my favorite either and thought he was too old for Da Vinci Code you have to love him in Forrest Gump. Philadelphia was good too!

    I love Catch me if you can -though I think that Dicaprio steals the picture ;-)

    don't like him. at all. except in SPLASHED. but that's mostly because of darryl hannah. he certainly seems to be very popular.
