Tom Hanks in Turner & Hooch: A Blast from the Past
Ever found yourself wondering, "Hey, how old was Tom Hanks when he was making us laugh in 'Turner & Hooch'?" Well, buckle up, 'cause we're about to take a little trip down memory lane.
First things first, 'Turner & Hooch' was released in 1989. That's right, it's been around for a while! Now, imagine you're at a party, and someone starts playing "Who Let the Dogs Out?" (Yes, that song was also a '90s hit.) Suddenly, you're transported back to a time when grunge was just starting, and the Berlin Wall was coming down. That's the kind of time warp we're talking about here.
So, back to our question...
Tom Hanks was born on July 9, 1956. That makes him a Cancer, by the way. (Not that it matters, but it's fun to know, right?) Now, 'Turner & Hooch' hit theaters in June 1989. So, let's do some math. If you're not a fan of math, don't worry, it's simple.
