Hollywood star Tom Hanks has acted in as many as 100 movies, but thinks only four of them are “pretty good”. “No one knows how a movie is made, though everyone thinks they do,” Hanks said in an interview.
“I’ve made a tonne of movies (and four of them are pretty good, I think), and I’m still amazed at how films come together. From a flicker of an idea to the flickering image on screen, the whole process is a miracle.” Hanks has led some of cinema’s most celebrated films over his four-decade career, including Forrest Gump and Philadelphia, both of which earned him the Academy Award for best actor.
Hanks was also Oscar-nominated for Cast Away, Big, Saving Private Ryan and 2020’s A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood. But it’s unclear which titles in Hanks’ filmography he considers to be the best.
“Movie-making is hard work over a very long period of time that consists of so many moments of joy slapped up against an equal number of feelings of self-loathing… It is the greatest job in the world and the most confounding of labours that I know of.”
Hanks, who starred in box-office hit Elvis and Disney’s Pinocchio remake this year, is gearing up to release his first novel, titled The Making of Another Major Motion Picture Masterpiece, on May 9, 2023. — IANS
