Secrets of Tom Hanks REVEALED

Tom Hanks has made his career playing real life people, typically noble men in positions of extreme stress. But what few people realise is that Tom Hanks has had a close relationship with the US government throughout his career. In this video I outline the role government agencies have played in many of Hanks’ biggest and important films, including the Pentagon, FBI, CIA, LAPD and US Customs and Border Protection. I detail the changes made the scripts of these films, and how this has helped Hanks’ films glorify war, cover up for the Pentagon’s mistreatment of its own people, encourage military recruitment, trivialise US immigration policies, protect the news media, and whitewash the CIA’s influence on America and the world. Films discussed include The Man with One Red Shoe, Dragnet, Forrest Gump, Apollo 13, Saving Private Ryan, Catch Me If You Can, The Terminal, Charlie Wilson’s War, The Post, Bridge of Spies and Greyhound.
