    1. Hey Dan….thanks for the trivia lists on our Gary Sinise page. Based on his long Oracle list, it is surprising that he is not in the Top 1000. Most frequent Oracle co-star? That honor goes to Mr. Hollywood Tom Hanks. Three of those movies earned Best Picture Oscar nominations. Looking at the second list….21 is low…but not too bad as his career does not really have too many movies. Good stuff as always.
