I have never seen a movie like Forrest Gump, which is a magical movie that let me have a depth thought about my life. “Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you are gonna get.” That is a significance sentence from Forrest Gump’s mother at the beginning of movie. Everyone understands the meaning of this sentence but it is also difficult for us to deal with all the events with this optimism attitude. The film narrates different experience in Forrest Gump’s life continuously to prove this sentence to audience.
Forrest Gump was directed by Robert Zemeck which won six academy awards, including Best Picture, Best Visual Effects, Best Director, and Best Actor. Robert Zemeck is an Academy Award and Golden Globe-winning American film director, and his films are characterized by an interest in state-of-the-art special effects. Tom Hanks, one of the best world’s actors won Best Actor in this film, is the only and the perfect man portrayed a role Forrest Gump.
The film is about a low IQ man, Forrest Gump, waiting for a bus tells his significant historic events in his life to the stranger sitting with him. That is one of the most special techniques in this film to connect the different story with different audience beside Forrest Gump, which have a good effect to emphasize on the theme of this film. The other special technique is that there are two clues in this film: one is Forrest Gump’s life and the other is Jenny’s life. Through contrast with their different fate, it reflects the phenomenon of U.S at that time.
Forrest Gump’s mother plays an important role in his life. Even though Forrest is a “foolish” boy, his mother always encourages him and gives him confidence to face his life. Forrest Gump keeps his mother ‘s words to face all the difficulty events during his life. He joins the army for service in Vietnam, becomes football hero, creates a famous shrimp fishing fleet and meeting president. In addition, the movie tells us what is the true love through Forrest Gump’s love to Jenny. Through Forrest’s life, he has never given up his love to Jenny.
When Forrest Gump saves Dan’s life in Vietnam War, this part is with detail to reflect and contrast the theme. After losing legs, Dan was decadent and disgusted with life, complaining that Gump shouldn’t save him. And then the movie goes on to tell us how Forrest Gump change Dan’s attitude to life.
In fact, it is not only a touching film, but it also gives the significant information to audience to think about our life. “Stupid is as stupid does”. Forrest Gump is with his innocent thoughts on what living is all about. He creates his extraordinary life with his “intelligence”.
Still, the movie is with great background music to let the audience having deeply impression.
What is the meaning of outstanding movie? You will get the exactly meaning from the movie Forrest Gump. We have never known what will be happened in next minute, but we can make it better with optimism attitude in our life. I think you are not only having a enjoyable time with Forrest Gump, you also are having a view on your life thought Forrest Gump’s life.
