ABOUT ME:

ABOUT ME: I am a lifelong movie lover. So much of one, that my first job ever was as an usher at a movie theater. I was immediately hooked, stayed for 5 years, worked every job and eventually managed. I am still a regular movie theater patron and enjoy watching movies at home. I love to follow the box office totals too. It's always fascinating to me to see how a movie fares. There are so many variables: release date, competition, mood of movie-goers. A sure hit flops at the box office, while a low budget independent film takes off and earns millions. I also love movie trivia and discussions. This is just a place for me to share my thoughts on everything related to the movies (all genres). Please participate; I love feedback of all kinds. Well, off to the movies!

Don't Miss Tom Hanks' Oscar-Worthy Performances from 2013





Although Oscar-Worthy, Tom Hanks was NOT nominated for either his leading title role in Captain Phillips or his supporting role, as Walt Disney, in Saving Mr. Banks. He could have added 2 more statues to his collection, as far as i'm concerned. Both were at the highest level of performance, so i'm not sure why at least one of them did not make the cut. Regardless, don't miss seeing both movies. Not only are his performances phenomenal, but the performances of all of the other actors involved in both films are superb, and they are equally engaging and entertaining.

    Haven't seen either one of these, but I have seen so many of his movies and I can't imagine him ever not giving a great performance and am looking forward to see both of these movies. I'm going to check and see if either are On Demand, if not, I'm sure it won't be that long until they are. As always, I trust your reviews and know that you wouldn't steer anyone wrong!!!

    Thanks Linda. Yeah both movies are very different, and he convincingly plays each character so well.
