Saving Private Ryan

2. Tom Hanks
Tom Hanks is so likable, we'd follow him to the moon. In fact, we already did in "Apollo 13." "Forrest Gump," "Philadelphia," "Saving Private Ryan" and "Big" are other Hanks' movies you watch again and again on DVD. "To me, this isn't work — to go off and pretend to be... more somebody else," he says. "I couldn't believe when they paid me $285 a week to act, much less the raises I've received since. I shouldn't be called the nicest guy in Hollywood. I should be called the luckiest guy, because I still can't believe it." (R. Stonehouse/Camera Press/Retna Ltd.)
