Larry Crowne
Once well-respected at his company, Larry Crowne (Tom Hanks) finds himself on the unemployment line after a wave of corporate downsizing. Drowning in debt and unsure of what to do with his life, Larry enrolls in college, where he becomes part of a community of misfits who are all trying to carve out a better future. The possibility of romance enters the picture when Larry meets Mercedes Tainot (Julia Roberts), an instructor who has lost her passion for both teaching and her marriage.

A strange thing happens when Tom Hanks writes and directs a movie: All of the characters act and talk like they could have been played by Tom Hanks. The line deliveries, the rhythms — all Hanks-ish, all the time. In some ways, this is auteurship, I suppose, but that doesn't make it any less jarring.
