INTRODUCTION

Almost every American actor has a label. There are stars,

superstars and megastars. There are gangsters, lovers, action

heroes, comedians. And then there is Tom Hanks. He is not as

handsome as Brad Pitt, not as tough as Bruce Willis, not as sleek

as William Baldwin. He is too young to rival the generation of

Dustin Hoffman or Robert De Niro. He is too old to be one of

Hollywood’s eternal youngsters like Tom Cruise or Leonardo

DiCaprio.

Tom Hanks is simply Tom Hanks. Hollywood has no label

for him because he is painfully average. In his private life there

is no scandal, womanizing, drinking or drugs. His first marriage

may have failed, but he calls his current one “the greatest

happiness on Earth.” He hates parties and trendy night clubs.

He dislikes the way the media take interest in his life.

Is Hanks a bore, then? Or is he one of the very few morally

impeccable figures left in Hollywood? How did Mr Average

become the conscience of America in Philadelphia , reviving

the old-fashioned virtues of loyalty and honesty? What is so

special about his role in Forrest Gump that it brought the actor

his second Oscar in a row? In other words—what is Tom’s secret

of success?
