'My first impression of Tom was that he's funny as hell, up for anything and ready to go, at all times.' Geena Davis (GDIGM) reflects on working with TomHanks in 'A League of Their Own'

According to one of his most famous co-stars, the actor — set to receive the Cecil B. DeMille Award at the Golden Globes — proved his nice-guy reputation on the 1991 set:"I don't think it ever even occurred to us that he was the only guy on the team."with Tom Hanks. He and Penny Marshall, our director, were friends from doingtogether a few years earlier — but I don't think I'd met him before we started making the movie. Now,was rather unusual at the time. Still is, really.

Location shoots can be an intense thing, and it often leads to doing strange stuff together. Pretty much every morning in the makeup trailer, we'd play thealbum. Our long-haired makeup guy played Jesus; Tom played Caiaphas. The ADs would schedule Tom's time in the trailer to coincide with singing his role. I can't remember who played Mary Magdalene, but it wasn't Madonna. Up for anything, that Tom, and so supportive.
