Tom
Hanks: "I Want Another Oscar"
1/3/08
Tom Hanks is hoping to hear his name when the Oscar nominations are
announced later this month (Jan08) - because he is desperate for another
Academy Award.
The 51-year-old - who won two Best Actor in a Leading Role gongs for
1993 movie Philadelphia and Forrest Gump in 1994 - is keeping his fingers
crossed for a nomination for his role in Charlie Wilson's War when the
shortlist is revealed on 22 January (08).
He says, "If I'm 90 and haven't scored another one, I will truly
view the latter part of my career as some kind of failure."
Hanks has also been nominated for Best Actor in a Leading Role for Cast
Away (2000), Saving Private Ryan (1998) and Big (1988).
