      Tom Hanks certainly appears on this list a lot! And this was the first of his movies that I really loved. Perhaps it was the timing of the movie, but way back in 1988 I completely fell in love with this flick. I laughed, I cried...it had all the right elements. And Tom Hanks couldn't be more charming or goofy -- he was the perfect fit for the "boy in a grown up's body" part.
     I can't say that this is one of the greatest movies ever made, but I can say that it is one of my favorites. It's flaws are evident, but I don't care. I love it.
