TOM CRUISE SAGA 5:

THE MISSION SERIES


Tom Cruise's "Mission Impossible" series became by far the highest-grossing series in history!


"MISSION IMPOSSIBLE" began the series in 1966. My least favorite of the three. However, an excellent, complicated thriller.

From eBay, I procured the life-mask casting of Tom used in "Mission Impossible."
These effigies were used for props in special effects!

Next was one of his most awarded film's, "JERRY MAGUIRE." His second Oscar nomination and second Best Actor Golden Globe award. He has won FIVE Best Actor awards and has been nominated for TWO more!

"EYES WIDE SHUT" was panned. Although they spent over a year of their lives working with Stanley Kubrick making his last film. This takes several viewings to fully understand.

Another blockbuster, "MAGNOLIA" won many awards. FIVE wins and FOUR nominations including an Oscar nomination for Best Actor! at 37 years of age.

And then my favorite of the Mission series, "MISSON IMPOSSIBLE 2 (M:i-2)." STUNNINGLY EXCITING! John Woo directed.


Next, a run of ACTION films.
