Movie review
This movie contains rich content, such as love, history, emotion, war, etc. As long as you watch it from beginning to end, you will find that all major events in the United States are... in it. Forrest Gump was a typical representative of the American people at that time. He embodied the national character, and he also participated in or witnessed major historical events in the United States since the 1950s.
Forrest Gump witnessed the black civil rights movement, went to the front line of the Vietnam War, witnessed the Watergate incident, and participated in the table tennis match that opened a new era of Sino-US diplomacy; in terms of popular culture, he is the most famous stage move of Elvis Presley The teacher who inspired John Lennon's most famous song and invented America's most famous slogan of the 1980s during long-distance running.
The surface of the film is Forrest Gump's autobiography, which he tells slowly. What Forrest Gump sees, hears, says, and does is not only highly representative, but also a direct illustration of history.
This visual metaphor is vividly hinted at in the first shot of the film: a feather flutters across houses and roads, and finally falls at Forrest Gump’s feet, elegant but plain. Nothing surprising, random and inevitable.
Tom Hanks transformed Forrest Gump from a historical projection into a real, flesh-and-blood person. Forrest Gump is a child occupying the body of an adult, a sage-level fool, an ordinary person who transcends reality, and a little person who represents the national personality.
