Customer Reviews
Tom Hanks
Almost makes me wish I'd gone to Yale. Exactly what one would expect from a 'class act' like Tom Hanks: the perfect balance of humor and profundity. Not a particularly original message but he more than made up for this shortcoming by his wonderful delivery style. Couldn't wait for my own graduation address to end -- both the speaker and his message were supremely forgettable -- but this one was so good (and short), I watched it twice!
Excellent
Hanks was both inspiring and entertaining. A must see for all . Well done, Mr. Hanks.
