David McK (3562 KP) rated Forrest Gump (1994) in Movies
Jul 25, 2020 (Updated Apr 6, 2025)
While, today, you may recognize his voice as that of Woody from, the Toy Story movies, for me this is perhaps his best work, as the titular Forrest Gump in a movie that tugs in your heartstrings.
Hanks plays the titular Forrest Gump: a good-hearted man of low IQ who is seemingly involved in every major American event from the 50s through to the 80s, teaching Elvis his moves (whilst Forrest is still a kid), through the Vietnam War and Watergate with detours to meet several American presidents along the way, and with his life long love for Jenny, the abused kid who lived next door when he was but a child himself.
With two parallel strands - life as seen through Forrest's eyes, and life as seen through Jenny's (much bleaker) - this eventually culminates in a satisfying conclusion, with nary a dry eye in the house.
