"My father died right after the movie Rain Man was released. He got to see it, then literally the day before he died, he asked Mama to take him to see it one more time - because he knew he was declining.

I haven't seen him since, but you can't say anything bad about Tom Cruise to me, because anybody who takes the time to do that is very special."
