First of all, Hanks was a Captain, not a "sgt" in Pvt Ryan.

Lisping? Femme? Wow, I didn't see that at all.

Of course, he is playing an Army Captain who is really a high school English teacher, so maybe he didn't pour on the macho a la Rambo.

He was nominated for the Oscar for this performance, and I remember thinking that he should have won (I can't remember who did). Ditto for his work in Castaway...but I don't think he's gonna get that third Oscar (breaking the record) easily...although I agree with his not winning for Road to Perdition (very good job, just not Oscar worthy).

There seems to be some kind of attitude about Hanks...to glib, to "Hollywood?" (Obviously and not surprisingly, the opinions of Victor and Patrick?).

I dunno, guys, I think he's one of the most diverse and talented actors working today.

My 2 cents,

Gary
