8. Mike Nichols' last film. Co-Produced by Tom Hanks.

This is one helluva film, and a truly great end to Mike Nichols' career.

Charlie Wilson's War is one of the best films ever. Remarkably, it is a true story.



And yup, that is Julia Roberts, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Tom Hanks. And yup, Hoffman thoroughly chews the scenery. That's the only way one rises above Charlie Wilson, played by Hanks.
