(DVD or VCD)

A wonderful selection of Tom Hanks' films collected into one "binge box" for a fabulous movie experience.

Captain Phillips: "Captain Phillips is a multi-layered examination of the 2009 hijacking of the U.S. container ship Maersk Alabama by a crew of Somali pirates. Based on a true story, the film focuses on the Alabama's commanding officer, Captain Richard Phillips and the Somali pirate captain, Muse, who takes him hostage. The two men are set on an unstoppable collision course when Muse and his crew target Phillips' unarmed ship; in the ensuing standoff, both men will find themselves at the mercy of forces beyond their control."

Cast away: "Discover the unforgettable journey of hope, courage and survival. Tom Hanks "gives one of the towering screen performances of all time" as Chuck Noland, a FedEx systems engineer whose ruled-by-the-clock existence abruptly ends when a harrowing plane crash leaves him isolated on a remote island. As Chuck struggles to survive, he finds that his own personal journey has only just begun."

Catch me if you can: "Inspired by the extraordInary true story of a brilliant young master of deception and the FBI agent hot on his trail, Catch Me if You Can stars Academy Award winners Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks. From Oscar winning director Steven Spielberg, the film follows Frank W. Abagnale, Jr. as he successfully passes himself off as a pilot, a lawyer and a doctor -- all before his 21st birthday!"

Forrest Gump: "'Life is like a box of chocolates...you never know what you're going to get.' Forrest Gump is the movie triumph that became a phenomenon. Tom Hanks gives an astonishing performance as Forrest, an everyman whose simple innocence comes to embody a generation. The winner of six Academy Awards including Best Picture, Best Director (Robert Zemeckis) and Best Actor (Tom Hanks)."

You've got mail: "Special Delivery: The stars (Tom Hanks, Meg Ryan) and director (Nora Ephron) of 'Sleepless in Seattle' reteamed for this charming audience favorite. Greg Kinnear, Parker Posey, Jean Stapelton and more great co-stars add note-perfect support to this cinematic love letter in which superstore book chain magnate Hanks and cozy children's bookshop owner Ryan are anonymous e-mail cyberpals who fall head-over-laptops in love, unaware they are combative business rivals. You've got rare Hollywood magic when You've Got Mail."
