THOMAS HORN
on my
FACEBOOK status,
no one responded
to the comment;
THOMAS HORN.....brilliant performance!!!
Understandably, maybe no one had seen it...
OR
rather, no one had any idea
about who I was speaking!!
AND, therefore no one responded
with any kind of
COMMENT on his performance.
Here are a few FUN FACTS:
1. Thomas Horn is the LEAD ACTOR
of the new TOM HANKS/SANDRA BULLOCK movie
EXTREMELY LOUD
&
INCREDIBLY CLOSE.
(i read the book; read it... very good)
2. Horn was discovered on KID'S week at Jeopardy! where he won $31,000.
The show aired in JULY 2010.
3. Thomas is 14 years old, but just 11 when discovered by the films PRODUCER
Scott Rudin.
4. He is an avid reader, particularly of National Geographics and atlases.
5. He speaks THREE languages:
English,
Croatian,
and Mandarin.
6. His parents are both physicians. His mother an oncologist; his father and opthamalogist.
Many reviewers have said this movie was par at best...
My opinion is far different.
Thomas Horn's performance makes this movie.
The others, are just support.
This movie is about working through grief and healing....
HEALING.
