"Tom Hanks' movie career really took off after he played a sodomite in Philadelphia."
Before Tom Hanks made "Philadelphia", he'd starred in a sitcom and had major roles in nineteen movies, including "The Money Pit", "Splash", "Bachelor Party", "Joe vs. the Volcano", "Dragnet", "A League of Their Own", and the MONSTER hit "Sleepless in Seattle." To say that "Philadelphia" jumpstarted his career is rewriting cinema history, and it's just plain wrong.
