That's all I have to say about that. Goofs When Forrest is given his discharge papers, he sets down his ping-pong paddle and computerized ball to salute the officer.

Connections Edited from The Birth of a Nation User reviews 2. Top review. Forrest Gump is a movie masterpiece that won't be forgotten and will continue to inspire.
He may have been good in Philadelphia but be is excellent in Forrest Gump. Tom Hanks delivers another great performance in his career by portraying the lovable,king yet not so intelligent character Forrest Gump. It is also Tom Hanks' second straight win for the Best Actor Oscar which he becomes the second man to do said accomplishment after Spencer Tracy. Whilst not as dramatic as Philadelphia,Tom Hanks' performance is just as great in this movie and this movie could possibly be the film of Tom Hanks' career as he used to be a comedy guy who turned to drama in a way which would paved for future stars such as Jim Carrey The Truman Show ,Reese Witherspoon Walk the Line and Will Ferrell Stranger Than Fiction to name a few.
This is one masterpiece of a movie that will not be forgotten about in a long time. FAQ Who is the man with the "flag shirt" that says the F word a lot?

When it comes to features surrounding the war, this feature definitely takes a top spot on many lists. When it comes to perspectives on different eras of history, few capture so many different eras and so many famous faces quite as well as Lee Daniel's The Butler.
Through the eyes of White House butler, Cecil Gaines, viewers are exposed to history-changing decades over the course of the film, as well as several presidents under whom he served.
From Eisenhower to Regan, the film offers an interesting view of things going on inside and outside the White House. The general idea behind the film is that Benjamin Button ages backward. He was born as an old man and continues to reverse in age until he is 84 years old but has the form of a very young child. It might not have the overt comedic overtones of Forrest Gump , but the idea of a personality not matching the age of the character connects the two films clearly. This Jim Carrey classic connects to Forrest Gump through two main factors.
Secondly, The Truman Show also puts naivety front and center. However, in a way not unlike Forrest Gump, Josh retains his childlike outlook on life and personality traits.
This German film has a very, very specific connection to Forrest Gump. Basically, Lola runs. A lot. Hence the title. The film might be a trippy, parallel-universe-centric film that is exclusively in the German language, but if someone's favorite part of Forrest Gump was his long run, then Run Lola Run is worth checking out.
The film follows Lola as she relives the same day three times, which dramatically sees her try and attain , Deutsche Mark in order to save the life of her boyfriend. This is a fantastic watch. There is a relatively brief time in Forrest Gump in which the titular character is a well-loved and quick American Football player, which creates a pretty specific connection with The Blind Side. It could be argued that with his IQ of 75 Forrest does not quite understand everything that happens to him.
Not so. He understands everything he needs to know, and the rest, the movie suggests, is just surplus. He even understands everything that's important about love, although Jenny, the girl he falls in love with in grade school and never falls out of love with, tells him, "Forrest, you don't know what love is. The movie is ingenious in taking Forrest on his tour of recent American history. The director, Robert Zemeckis , is experienced with the magic that special effects can do his credits include the "Back To The Future" movies and " Who Framed Roger Rabbit " , and here he uses computerized visual legerdemain to place Gump in historic situations with actual people.
Forrest stands next to the schoolhouse door with George Wallace , he teaches Elvis how to swivel his hips, he visits the White House three times, he's on the Dick Cavett show with John Lennon , and in a sequence that will have you rubbing your eyes with its realism, he addresses a Vietnam-era peace rally on the Mall in Washington.
Special effects are also used in creating the character of Forrest's Vietnam friend Lt. Dan Gary Sinise , a Ron Kovic type who quite convincingly loses his legs. Using carefully selected TV clips and dubbed voices, Zemeckis is able to create some hilarious moments, as when LBJ examines the wound in what Forrest describes as "my butt-ox. That's not the laugh, just the setup. As Forrest's life becomes a guided tour of straight-arrow America, Jenny played by Robin Wright goes on a parallel tour of the counterculture.
She goes to California, of course, and drops out, tunes in, and turns on. She's into psychedelics and flower power, antiwar rallies and love-ins, drugs and needles.
Eventually it becomes clear that between them Forrest and Jenny have covered all of the landmarks of our recent cultural history, and the accommodation they arrive at in the end is like a dream of reconciliation for our society. What a magical movie. Roger Ebert was the film critic of the Chicago Sun-Times from until his death in
