Tom Hanks

Good, Alone, Made

I have seen 'Thor', yeah. It's fantastic. Being that close to something, it's often pretty hard to watch yourself, but the film in so many ways is so impressive that I was swept along with it like an audience member, and that's a pretty good sign.
Chris Hemsworth

Good, Yourself, Hard
