Hey, I wouldn't have blamed the guy, because Tom Hanks dramas make money, as opposed to this film, which made very little money, and really, I must say that I am surprised about that. If Hanks didn't get sick of Sinise by "The Green Mile", I'm betting Sinise would have ended up covering his face in fuzz, brown paint and asking Robert Zemeckis to CG out his body so that he could be Wilson in "Cast Away". Clearly, once he did "Forrest Gump", he realized that it wasn't the mentally ill that was getting butts in seats, but Tom Hanks, which would explain why Sinsie just had to have himself crowbarred into every post-"Forrest Gump" Tom Hanks drama in the '90s. Man, in the '90s, Gary Sinise just couldn't get away from the mentally handicapped, though I doubt he wanted to, because films about the mentally ill are about the only films people remember Gary Sinise being in, because he knew that the lovably inept made for great box office bait.
