Related Tom Hanks’ 10 Best Movies, Ranked
Tom Hanks has been in so many classic movies, from Toy Story to Forrest Gump. Throughout his career in Hollywood, these films are his best work.
In one of his lesser-known 1990s roles, Hanks gives a quality performance as McCoy, portraying the Wall Street trader with a dignified and arrogant air. Though the film failed to resonate with audiences and enter popular culture, Hank’s performance was one of the highlights of the film, showing a wealthy man on the edge of losing everything and portraying the spiraling problems in a convincing fashion. He added some subtle and memorable humanizing elements to a role that could have been one-dimensional and showed off another range in his repertoire.

Penny Marshall’s A League of Their Own is a sports comedy-drama that recounts the fictionalized story of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League (AAGPBL). Hanks portrays Jimmy Dugan, a retired baseball player who played for the Cubs, who reluctantly agrees to coach the women’s team, believing it all to be a joke before seeing the commitment and dedication the women show. The film features an ensemble cast including stars like Geena Davis, Madonna, Jon Lovitz, and Bill Pullman.
Despite the star-studded cast, Hanks once again shows he is a cut above with an immersive portrayal of an ex-baseball slugger turned motivational coach and mentor to the group of women. Hanks showcases a man who is depressed and addicted to alcohol who turns his life around and finds meaning in his new role. He also shows his comedic timing with the infamous line after laying into one of the women’s performances, “There’s no crying in baseball!” His mix of vulnerability, humor, and self-discovery make it a character and film worth revisiting.
