“It was a monumental time, so I took one of those.”
Butler wasn’t the only one to collect a souvenir from the set.
It was a gag gift fromTom Hanks.
And that was hilarious.
[He gave me a new one] once a week.
And I had a collection of them on my wall.
There’s about 15 of them.
Tom’s just got a way like no other of cohering a team."
