his sexuality or his disease. >> let's get it out of the closet. because this case is not just about aids, is it? so let's talk about what this case is really all about. the general public's hatred, our loathing, our fear of homosexuals. >> he can bring the audience on that journey to say, we don't need to fear those people, we don't need to despise or stigmatize them. >> my name is forrest, forrest gump. >> forrest gump! >> it's a very rare thing for me to read a script and not be able to put it down. >> "forrest gump" is a marvelous look at how history happens. >> forrest gump, john lennon. >> it's a delightful play on the contingency and accident that shapes our world. >> we were the first americans to visit the land of china in like a million years or something like that. somebody said world peace was in our hands. but all i did was play

ping-pong. >> that film embodies everything that makes tom great. he's fantastic dramatic actor. he's a magnificent comedy actor. i can't think of another actor living or dead who could have ever done that part. you know, that part. >> by the 1990s, the median age of the people who served in world war ii was around 70. they were growing old and they were disappearing. and there was a powerful sense of nostalgia. and we saw a lot of retrospective looks at aspects of world war ii. this was the time when people started talking about the greatest generation. >> "saving private ryan" was a film that i was going to make someday in my life. my dad used to have his band of brothers from the air corps come over to the house every year.

i was ill for two weeks watching that. i couldn't believe he did that. >> sir, i just -- i don't have a good feeling about this one. >> when was the last time you felt good about anything? >> this ability to entertain and reach audiences more than one way, with the same movie, "saving private ryan" is a great example of that because it's exciting, it's thrilling, it's suspenseful. but it also is a reminder of the price of that kind of warfare. the cost to the soul, and who winds up living and dying and bearing those scars in that kind of a conflict. >> what is that? is that pork? >> of course. >> that's a nice sheen on it. >> thank you. >> very nice. >> i would get you one but the man who made it is probably dead, i don't know.

>> my family, when i was growing up, talked about the holocaust, although they never used that word, they used to call it the great murders. i shot the whole film very documentary style. it was the first film i'd ever shot like that. and it became less of a film, more of just a life's journey, a living, learning experience, making that film. we all felt we were shooting in a graveyard. and so the amount of reverence of the crew and the cast. i cast liam neeson at the last minute based on a play i saw him in on broadway. i thought he was the best possible schindler i could possibly find. and he was. >> he saved my life. god bless him. god bless you. >> oskar schindler was a dealmaker, and he didn't really care that much for his workers. but there was an inevitable

metamorphosis based on the encroaching holocaust and what he was personally witnessing that unlocked his empathy. instead of being someone that just gathers wealth for his own pleasure, he started to spend his money to save lives. >> i could have got more out. i could have got more. >> the totality of the meaning of that film, the fact that it created awareness in the world about an era in history that had been forgotten, that it denied the deniers and allowed us to really mean it when we say "never again." "schindler's list" is the greatest experience eye ever had as a filmmaker. when you have technology that's easier to control...

what's what's your name? >> what do you want it to be? vivian. my name is vivian. >> vivian. >> i remember meeting gary

marshal for the first time and being so nervous. making this movie with him was hysterical. we didn't really have a complete script. i remember one day looking at richard like what are we doing, what scene are we doing, and he goes i don't know. gary goes be funny, action. did we think it was going to be a huge success? not necessarily. >> hi, hello. do you remember me? >> no, i'm sorry. >> i was in here yesterday. you wouldn't wait on me. >> oh. >> you work on commission, right? >> yes. >> big mistake. big, huge. i have to go shopping now. >> "pretty woman" makes julia roberts a major star. that smile, that interaction with richard gear, that improvised little thing with the jewelry box and the pearls in

it. >> he said just touch it, it's the most amazing thing you've ever seen. >> we fall for her and we fall-like a ton of bricks. >> oh, my god, it's the bride and the woman she'll never live up to. >> she rises through the decade but then ends with three mega ram coms, my best friends wedding, ron away bride and noting hill. >> can i help you at all? >> no thanks. i'll just look around. >> richard curtis says he wrote it with me in mind, and i love when writers say that. i don't care if it's true. it's hard to find really great original material that hold a real performance and the comedy and physical comedy and some thread of love that you're trying to accomplish. >> i'm also just a girl standing

in front of a boy asking him to love her. >> romantic comedy is a genre that i love. i think i just was really lucky that they were making a big resurgence at the time when i was at the ready. >> the romantic comedy gets its jump start, and you have a number of people who are especially adept at the form of the romantic comedy. you have sandra bullock, hue grant, meg ryan, and you have tom hanks. >> she made everything beautiful, and it's -- it's just tough this time of year. any kid needs a mother. >> could it be that you need someone just as much as jonah does? >> yes. >> norra effron prepared movies like no other director i'd

worked with. we would work for weeks prior to beginning of shooting. every line was specifically found or written or perfected. >> magic. >> norra was unafraid to take something that felt familiar but then cover it in unfamiliar territory. >> you get a new wife i guess you'll have sex with her, huh? >> i most certainly hope so. >> will she scratch up your back? >> what? >> in movies women are always scratching up the men's back and screaming and stuff when they're having sex. >> how do you know this? >> jed's got cable. >> well, this movie is about a widower. that i thought was a brave choice. you saw people on-screen work out a problem who weren't necessarily from the traditional american family. >> i left her by the telescope. >> the great thing about nora is

when she was talking about the dynamics between men and women who were attracted to each other or need each other and are searching for each other and don't really know it, she was a genius. >> i'm the guy you don't usually see. i'm the one behind the scenes. i'm the sports agent. >> i wanted to write a movie that begins where an '80s movie ended. >> what's going on? >> they fired jerry maguire. >> the script went right to tom cruz. he calls in immediately, i love this script, i'll read it with you and you tell me if i'm right for it. >> don't worry. i'm not going to do what you all think i'm going to do. >> and basically i've been geeking out over his performance ever since. >> right, right, jerry maguire, how are you doing? >> how am i doing?

i'll tell you how i'm doing. i'm sweating, dude. >> cuba and tom deliriously happy actors. >> show me the money. >> they were just like landing blows on each other. >> show me the money! >> and that scene just kind of exploded. >> congratulations, you're still my agent. >> that film really spoke to me so deeply because it's a single mom with this precocious little kid. >> did you know the human head was 8 pounds? >> and bringing a guy into that picture, i loved how much she believes in romance. >> i was so anxious to do one line, you complete me. there are times i read that in a script and thought fantastic. there are other times and i thought is this too cheesy, and i told tom that and he said give

me a shot at it. and he said if you don't want to use it, don't use it. >> i love you. you complete me. and -- >> shut up. just shut up. you had me at hello. you had me at hello. >> i look around, everybody's crying. the grizzled guys holding cable are like -- and i was like i think it's going to work. side h. tween milestones like this may start at age 9. hpv vaccination - a type of cancer prevention against certain hpv-related cancers, can start then too. for most, hpv clears on its own. but for others, it can cause certain cancers later in life. you're welcome! now, as the "dad cab", it's my cue to help protect them. embrace this phase. help protect them in the next. ask their doctor about hpv vaccination today.
