To celebrate the November 14th DVD and Blu-ray release of Larry Crowne, which stars Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts we thought, since two stars have an entire bank of classic films between them, we’d count down the Top 10 Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts films. Here’s the list:
10) Cast Away
Last on the list, but certainly not least, is Cast Away starring Tom Hanks. Hanks plays Chuck Noland, a FedEx executive who is the sole survivor of a plane crash that leaves him stranded on an uninhabited island. Chuck spends 4 years struggling to live with Wilson, his volleyball and only companion, until he finally escapes back to civilization.

9) My Best Friend’s Wedding
Julia Roberts stars as Julianne Potter, the comically jealous best friend, in this chick flick.
