He doesn't specify the four. Private Ryan and Castaway seem obvious to me. Maybe Apollo 13? Probably not Joe vs the Volcano.

Castaway is nowhere near his too 4 IMO.
SPR and Apollo 13 for sure. Forrest Gump? Big?

This man had a throwaway self deprecating line in an interview and the internet ran wild with it.

Road to Perdition doesn’t get enough love.

People are taking seriously a comment he meant to be self deprecating and humble.
Man has one of the most solid filmographies in Hollywood.

As Executive Producer, Hanks technically "made" Band of Brothers, so I'll nominate it as my favorite gem that he's had a hand in.
I will say that, of his movies, I do recall leaving the theater after Forrest Gump and wanting to be a better person. It was wholesome and altruistic, attributes that were foreign to my early-20s self. At the time, it was the first movie that ever provided me any personal inspiration.

He's probably thinking of Forrest Gump and Philadelphia, perhaps even more than Castaway.

Private Ryan, Forrest Gump, A League of their Own, Green Mile
Posted on 9/29/22 at 9:09 am to Diseasefreeforall
Castaway was one of his best acting jobs, but not top 4 films
Posted on 9/29/22 at 9:19 am to Diseasefreeforall
Pretty obviously
Saving Private Ryan
Philadelphia
Forest Gimp and
Joe Versus the Volcano.
