His role with the " Callas scene " was a high light in modern time film. Wonderful.
Follow Ups:
That scene never worked for me. It seemed way too forced. Tom Hanks was at his best in movies like Big and A League of their own IMO.
Which role was that?
In Philadelphia, when he is alone in his room and the Callas sings " Mama morte "
The two blend to a kind of perfectio ( voice & acting ) that I still have in my mind after many a year.
I would rather take Susan Sarandon and Casta Diva in Atlantic City.That was sexy.
I don't remember that moment in Piladelphia... the whole movie is like a blur to me.
" Atlantic" was totally different, and not so modern time Hollywoodian, in fact more a European film, or indepedent film as I remember.
But this scene, is still engraved in my mind, I wonder how this film would do today? It was ok for my taste when I saw it back then.
Maybe because, I was happy in a political way that Hollywood would make a good move for the " pestilence " of that time, remember when the homosexual would be demonized, and some said it was the wrath of God.
The bastards.
