Willow is one of the greatest movies of all time.
We just watched A Beautiful Mind and were reminded of why he won the Academy Award that year for it. He teamed again with Veteran Awesomeness Ed Harris (Apollo 13), who steals the show with his walk-ons.
Ron Howard is a gifted director and story-teller. Go re-watch The Missing with Tommy Lee Jones. You'll love it.
We think he is the most successful child star of all time.
