It is a surname and not a first name. Her parents were at least very confused when they named her. Only 14 (!) years later there is an announcement: https://www.highdefdigest.com/news/show/announcement/cage-and-scorseses-bringing-out-the-dead-rescues-a-paramount-presents-4k-uhd-bluray-release-917/49488 It took a while but they made up for it with a very extensive release also in 4K. This film certainly supports my theory that in this day and age films that fail to be coherent are seen as "smart" or "creative". This is an almost impossible choice. I used to prefer Mononoke over Nausicaa because I felt that the former was the more refined telling of a similar story. But in recent years I have changed my mind a bit on that: Nausicaa has some very definite qualities over Mononoke that makes it unique. Nowadays I wouldn't be able to state a preference. Interesting tidbit is that the framed original posters of both films are hanging in my living room. Loved the ending. Very elegant yet very emotional. It is very low key but at the same time so significant and ties the story together wonderfully. You are right. Not sure why but I was thinking about his role in A Beautiful Mind thinking that it was in Field of Dreams. Well it is her real name. She only goes by "Emma" because another Emily Stone registered the name with the SAG first. And SAG won't accept multiple registrations with the same name. He certainly played in a lot of favorite films of mine. The Right Stuff, The Abyss, Glengarry Glen Ross, The Hours, Nixon and Field of Dreams are all very high on my list of favorites. And he has made some very popular films next to it like Apollo 13, The Rock, A Beautiful Mind, The Truman Show and Top Gun Maverick. His career choices have been excellent indeed. Not sure how much the "in love with someone else" is worth when apparently he not only married someone "out of love" before that and also made her pregnant. The relationship with Ellen may just as well have been a fling: who knows. And the enduring nature of his marriage to May shows that there was a lasting love for her. Maybe not as fiery as with Ellen but love none the less.
