      What episodes in "Forrest Gump" made you cry?

      "He (bewildered, panicked)...is his intelligence normal?"

      "He's the smartest kid in his class"

      "I..." (pointing to himself, walking to the door, and then quickly retracting it, but couldn't help but want to go back and forth many times)

      "You can go, it's okay, he will accept you." (distressed)

      This episode of Forrest Gump's kindness touched me deeply. Looking at the backs of the father and son, I couldn't help it, my heart was really full to the point where it...

      What episodes in "Forrest Gump" made you cry?

      When Forrest Gump heard that little Forese was his son.

      That kind of strong guilt, worry and a little surprise, I can't believe it.

      Worrying about whether the child is as intellectually problematic as he is.

      Make sure that the child is his, and the first sentence is "Is he smart?" From the beginning to the end of the whole film, almost everyone told Forrest Gump that you are a fool. But Forrest Gump only replied "Only those who do stupid things are stupid". It seems that...

      This is not an inspirational movie

      Before watching the movie, I glanced at the introduction, and then I figured out the idea of ​​the composition, which is probably youth, inspiration, positive energy, etc. However, when I watched it, I realized that it was not the case at all.

      The film mainly tells the story of the growth of a boy with a congenital intellectual disability, Forrest Gump, who finally achieved outstanding achievements in many fields. However, the process is full of incredible: Elvis was boarding at...

      The American History Behind 'Forrest Gump' - No Comments, No Spoilers, Scholarly Posts

      The United States is a country with a history of only more than 200 years, but Americans cherish the history of their own country very much. In the process of telling Forrest Gump's life, the movie "Forrest Gump" starts from the details and intersperses major events in American history.

      1 Forrest Gump's mother told him that General Nathan Bedford Forrest was somewhat related to him. This person is the founder of the KKK party in the United States. The video about the KKK party in the...

      We're not Forrest Gump, we're only going forward in awake pain

      I originally watched this movie with great expectations, a classic inspirational film, but the result was not as good as I imagined.
          What many people say is that this film teaches us not to be immersed in unnecessary tangled complaints all day long, but to be full of practical spirit. Just do it like Forrest Gump. To quote high school politics, it is to devote yourself to practice. . Obviously, this film does illustrate this truth. We have seen it from Forrest Gump's success, but it is...

    Movie plot

    Forrest Gump is an incompetent boy with an IQ of only 75. In order to avoid being bullied by other children in school, he listened to a friend Jenny and started to "run". He ran to avoid other people's tricks. In middle school, he ran into the football field of a school in order to avoid others, so he ran into the university. Forrest Gump was admitted exceptionally and became a rugby superstar. He was received by President Kennedy.

    Piercing lens

    When the lens is 10 feet away from A-Gump, the feather can be seen on A-Gump's feet and in the sky at the same time.
    Jenny died in March 1982, but Forrest Gump appeared in a newspaper clipping of "USA Today" on September 15, 1982. According to the date on the tombstone, Jenny died on Monday, not Saturday as Forrest said.
    During the conversation between Forrest Gump and the female driver when he was on the school bus for the first time,...

    Background creation

    When making the scene of Forrest Gump meeting and shaking hands with the late president, visual effects director Ken Ralston and his industrial light and magic special effects team applied CGI technology, and Hanks completed the performance with reference to relevant markers in front of the blue screen. Thus it is seamlessly integrated with documentary images. In order to record the voices of historical figures, the crew used voice...

    Exquisite production

    In addition, the shooting of the film used the highest level of computer stunts at the time; such as the feathers of the title, Forrest Gump appeared in the old news film; the old photos of the KKK people were transformed into moving scenes in the film, etc., which was very delicate and lifelike. Using the same scene to create a sense of right and wrong is a time conversion technique commonly used by directors. In addition to the...

    Profound meaning

    The uniqueness of this film is that it reaffirms the old moral and social subject culture, promotes the mainstream American ideology in the 1960s, and at the same time denies other avant-garde new cultures. I think it is based on this that it can win the hearts of the American people (by Robert Zemigis) .

      Mrs. Gump: What does normal mean anyway? He might be... a bit on the slow side. But my boy Forrest is gonna get the same opportunities as everyone else. He's not going to some special school to learn how to retread tires! We're talking about five little points here! There must be something that can be done.

      Principal: We're a progressive school system. We don't want to see anybody left behind. Is there a Mr. Gump, Mrs. Gump?
