I think you have to have a sense of humor about every movie that you're doing. Your character needs to be relatable in a way that, even when you're doing the most bizarre things, sometimes a bit of tongue in cheek is necessary to keep up the believability of it. Katherine Isabelle
About This Quote

Tom Hanks said, "I think you have to have a sense of humor about every movie that you're doing. Your character needs to be relatable in a way that, even when you're doing the most bizarre things, sometimes a bit of tongue in cheek is necessary to keep up the believability of it." Playing a character who has a good sense of humor about their situation keeps the audience from being too frustrated with the character. The reason a sense of humor is important is because it helps keep the audience engaged in the film and prevents them from being disappointed by the story.
