Tom Hanks’ versatility as an actor has made him one of the best of his generation. He has played very different roles, from a soldier fighting in a war to a shipwrecked man stranded on an island. So far, he has received 6 Oscar nominations and won 2 of them. However, few might remember his humble beginnings when he appeared in his debut film, He Knows You’re Alone. That was back in 1980 when Hanks was just 24 years old.
