The film follows the life of an Alabama man named Forrest Gump (Hanks) and his experiences in the 20th-century United States. Principal photography took place between August and December 1993, mainly in Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina. Extensive visual effects were used to incorporate Hanks into archived footage and to develop other scenes. The soundtrack features songs reflecting the different periods seen in the film.\n
Various interpretations have been made of the protagonist and the film's political symbolism. In 2011, the Library of Congress selected the film for preservation in the United States National Film Registry as being \"culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant\".[3][4][5]\n
In 1981, a man named Forrest Gump recounts his life story to strangers who happen to sit next to him at a bus stop.\n
As a boy in 1956, Forrest has an IQ of 75, and is fitted with leg braces to correct a curved spine. He lives in Greenbow, Alabama, with his mother, who runs a boarding house and encourages him to live beyond his disabilities. Among their temporary tenants is a young Elvis Presley, who plays guitar for Forrest, and is inspired to incorporate the boy's jerky leg and hip movements into his performances. While trying to enroll Forrest in public school, the principal informs his mom that Forrest cannot attend because his IQ falls 5 points below the minimum for attendance. Mrs. Gump has sex with the principal so that he will enroll Forrest. On his first day of school, Forrest meets a girl named Jenny Curran, and the two become best friends. Jenny is a victim of sexual abuse at the hands of her widowed, alcoholic father; she is eventually removed from his custody.\n
After graduating college in 1966, Forrest enlists in the U.S. Army. During basic training, he befriends a fellow soldier named Benjamin Buford Blue (nicknamed \"Bubba\"), who becomes a close friend, and convinces Forrest to go into the shrimping business with him after their service. While on leave, Forrest goes to Memphis, Tennessee, to see Jenny, who got expelled from college for posing in Playboy in her college sweater, and works as a singer in a strip club. However, he embarrasses her by attacking some patrons who are harassing her, causing the two to part ways. Soon afterward, Forrest and Bubba are sent to fight in Vietnam, serving with the 9th Infantry Division in the Mekong Delta region, under Lieutenant Dan Taylor. After months of routine operations, their platoon is ambushed while on patrol, and several members of the platoon are killed in action, including Bubba. Forrest saves several others, including Lieutenant Dan, who loses both of his lower legs, while Forrest is shot \"in the buttocks\". While recovering from his wound, Forrest develops a talent for ping pong. Dan is embittered from having his life saved; he had hoped to die in combat like his ancestors, and detests being handicapped. Forrest is awarded the Medal of Honor for his heroism by President Lyndon B. Johnson.\n
At an antiwarMarch on the Pentagon rally, Forrest meets Abbie Hoffman, encounters a Black Panther group, and reunites with Jenny, who has become a drug-addicted hippie and antiwar activist. Still, the two soon part again when she leaves for San Francisco with her abusive boyfriend, Wesley, the president of Students for a Democratic Society at Berkeley. Forrest plays ping pong in the special services, competing against Chinese teams in ping-pong diplomacy, becoming a celebrity, and earns himself an interview alongside John Lennon on The Dick Cavett Show, appearing to influence Lennon's song, \"Imagine\". Forrest spends 1972 New Year's Eve in New York City with Lieutenant Dan, who has become an alcoholic, still bitter about his disability and the government's apathy toward Vietnam War veterans. Forrest does not enjoy the company of Lt. Dan's prostitutes because of his devotion to Jenny, and rejects their advances, leading Lt. Dan to angrily throw them out for insulting Forrest. Forrest's ping-pong success eventually leads to a meeting with President Richard Nixon. He is given a room in the Watergate complex, where he unwittingly exposes the Watergate scandal.\n
In 1974, Forrest is honorably discharged from the Army, and returns to Greenbow, where he accepts $25,000 to use a ping-pong paddle with Mao Zedong on it. He uses the earnings to buy a shrimping boat in Bayou La Batre, fulfilling his promise to Bubba. Lieutenant Dan joins Forrest as his first mate, and they initially have little success. However, after their boat becomes the only one to survive Hurricane Carmen, they pull in vast amounts of shrimp and create the profitable Bubba Gump Shrimp Company. Soon afterward, Lieutenant Dan finally thanks Forrest for saving his life, having \"made his peace with God\". Dan invests their money in early tech companies on the stock market, which Forrest mistakes for \"some kind of fruit company\", and the two become millionaires. Forrest gives half of his earnings to Bubba's family to fulfill the promise he made with Bubba to split evenly the revenue of their shrimping business. Forrest returns home to his mother, and cares for her during her terminal illness from cancer. After she dies, Forrest spends most of his time volunteering as a gardener at the University of Alabama.\n
In 1976, Jenny \u2014 recovering from years of drugs and physical abuse \u2014 yields to Forrest. One day, the two come across the now-abandoned house of Jenny's father; Jenny, in a rage, throws all the rocks she can find at it until she collapses in anguish. Forrest eventually proposes to her, but she turns him down, much to Forrest's dismay. That night, she confesses to Forrest that she does indeed love him. They make love, but Jenny leaves the next day. Heartbroken, Forrest, \"for no particular reason\", starts running, and embarks on a cross-country marathon, becoming famous for another feat. Forrest garners many inspired followers, some of whom are struggling businessmen. After about three years and two-and-a-half months running, Forrest decides to end the run and return to Greenbow, much to the surprise of his followers.\n
In 1981, Forrest receives a letter from Jenny asking him to visit her, which is why he has been waiting at the bus stop. An elderly lady informs him that the address is only five or six blocks away, so he rushes off. Forrest again reunites with Jenny, who has quit abusing drugs and turned her life around. Jenny introduces him to her young son, Forrest Gump Jr., revealing that Forrest is his father. Initially shocked at the revelation, Forrest starts to bond with his son. Jenny tells Forrest that she is sick with \"some kind of virus\", and the doctors cannot do anything for her. Jenny proposes marriage to Forrest, which he happily accepts, and the three move back to Greenbow. Among their wedding guests is Lt. Dan, now walking on titanium-alloy prosthetics, with his fianc\u00e9e, Susan. Jenny succumbs to her illness a year later. Forrest is deeply saddened by her death, but becomes a loving, devoted father to Forrest Jr. as the two engage in activities like ping-pong and fishing. Forrest also buys the land that belonged to Jenny's father, and has the house demolished. Lastly, Forrest sees his son off on his first day of school.\n
Tom Hanks as Forrest Gump: At an early age, Forrest is deemed to have a below-average IQ of 75. He has an endearing character and shows devotion to his loved ones and duties, character traits that bring him into many life-changing situations. Along the way, he encounters many historical figures and events throughout his life. Hanks also briefly plays Nathan Bedford Forrest in The Birth of a Nation scene.\n
Michael Conner Humphreys as young Forrest Gump: Hanks revealed in interviews that instead of having Michael copy his accent, he copied Michael's unique Southern accented drawl into the older character's accent.
\n
Robin Wright as Jenny Curran: Forrest's childhood friend with whom he immediately falls in love, and never stops loving throughout his life. A victim of child sexual abuse at the hands of her bitterly widowed father, Jenny embarks on a different path from Forrest, leading a self-destructive life and becoming part of the hippie movement in California in the 1960s and the following Me Decade's sex and drug culture of the 1970s. She re-enters Forrest's life at various times in adulthood. Jenny eventually becomes a waitress in Savannah, Georgia, where she lives in an apartment with her (and Forrest's) son, Forrest Jr. They eventually get married, but soon afterward she dies from complications due to an unnamed disease. This unknown disease was intended by Winston Groom, the author of the original novel, to be Hepatitis C, itself an \"unknown virus\" until defined in April 1989,[6][7] although some of the makers of the film have said that they intended for the unknown disease to have been HIV/AIDS.[8][9][10]\n
Gary Sinise as Lieutenant Dan Taylor: Forrest and Bubba Blue's platoon leader during the Vietnam War, whose ancestors have died in every U.S. war and who regards it as his destiny to do the same. After losing his legs in an ambush and being rescued against his will by Forrest, he is initially bitter and antagonistic toward Forrest for leaving him a \"cripple\" and denying him his family's destiny, falling into a deep depression. He later serves as Forrest's first mate at the Bubba Gump Shrimp Company, gives most of the orders, becomes wealthy with Forrest, and regains his will to live. He ultimately forgives and thanks Forrest for saving his life. By the end of the film, he is engaged to be married to his fianc\u00e9e Susan and is sporting \"magic legs\" \u2013 titanium alloyprosthetics that allow him to walk again.
\n
Mykelti Williamson as Benjamin Buford \"Bubba\" Blue: Bubba was originally supposed to be the senior partner in the Bubba Gump Shrimp Company, but due to his death in Vietnam, their platoon leader, Dan Taylor, took his place. The company posthumously carried his name. Forrest later gave Bubba's mother (Marlena Smalls) Bubba's share of the business. Throughout filming, Williamson wore a lip attachment to create Bubba's protruding lip.[11]
\n
Sally Field as Mrs. Gump: Forrest's mother. Field reflected on the character, \"She's a woman who loves her son unconditionally. ... A lot of her dialogue sounds like slogans, and that's just what she intends.\"[12]
\n
Haley Joel Osment as Forrest Gump Jr.: Osment was cast in the film after the casting director noticed him in a 1993 Pizza Hut commercial. It was his debut feature film role.[13][14]
Dick Cavett as himself: Cavett played a de-aged version of himself in the 1970s, with makeup applied to make him appear younger. Consequently, Cavett is the only well-known figure in the film to play a cameo role rather than be represented through the use of archival footage like John Lennon or President John F. Kennedy.[16]
\n
Sam Anderson as Principal Hancock: Forrest's elementary school principal.
\n
Geoffrey Blake as Wesley: A member of the SDS group and Jenny's abusive boyfriend
\n
Siobhan Fallon Hogan as Dorothy Harris: The school bus driver who drives Forrest, and later his son, to school
Tiffany Salerno and Marla Sucharetza as \"Cunning\" Carla and \"Long-Limbs\" Lenore: a couple of prostitutes that Forrest and Dan spend a New Year's evening with and later turn away[17][18]
\"The writer, Eric Roth, departed substantially from the book. We flipped the two elements of the book, making the love story primary and the fantastic adventures secondary. Also, the book was cynical and colder than the movie. In the movie, Gump is a completely decent character, always true to his word. He has no agenda and no opinion about anything except Jenny, his mother and God.\"\n
The film is based on the 1986 novel by Winston Groom. Both center on the character of Forrest Gump. However, the film primarily focuses on the first eleven chapters of the novel before skipping ahead to the end of the novel, with the founding of Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. and the meeting with Forrest Jr. In addition to skipping some parts of the novel, the film adds several aspects to Gump's life that do not occur in the novel, such as his needing leg braces as a child and his run across the United States.[20]\n
Gump's core character and personality are also changed from the novel; among other things, his film character is less of a savant\u2014in the novel, while playing football at the university, he fails craft and gym but receives a perfect score in an advanced physics class he is enrolled in by his coach to satisfy his college requirements.[20] The novel also features Gump as an astronaut, a professional wrestler, and a chess player.[20]\n
The book had a bidding war regarding an adaptation even before publication, with Wendy Finerman and Steve Tisch acquiring them by joining forces with Warner Bros., where Finerman's husband Mark Canton was president of production.[21] Groom was paid $500,000 and also wrote the first three first drafts of the screenplay, which leaned closer to the events of the novel.[22] After Rain Man told the story of a savant, Warner lost interest in the picture, and by 1990 the project was in turnaround. Finerman contacted Columbia Pictures, who went on to reject it,[23] while hiring Eric Roth to rewrite the script. Roth and Finerman kept in contact with Groom to ensure the script was historically accurate.[22] Roth delivered a screenplay in 1992, which Paramount Pictures chairwoman Sherry Lansing liked enough to bring the project to her studio, who acquired the rights from Warner in exchange for the script for Executive Decision.[24][25]\n
John Travolta was the original choice to play the title role and said that passing on the role was a mistake.[29][30][31]Bill Murray, Chevy Chase, and Matthew Broderick were also considered for the role.[32]Sean Penn had stated in an interview that he had been second choice for the role, but would later portray a character with a disability in the 2001 film I Am Sam. Hanks revealed that he signed on to the film after an hour and a half of reading the script.[33] He initially wanted to ease Forrest's pronounced Southern accent, but was eventually persuaded by director Robert Zemeckis to portray the heavy accent stressed in the novel.[33] Hanks also said it took him three days to learn how to play the role, and footage from that time was not included.[34]Winston Groom, who wrote the original novel, describes the film as having taken the \"rough edges\" off the character whom he had envisioned being played by John Goodman.[35] Additionally, Tom's younger brother Jim Hanks is his acting double in the movie for the scenes when Forrest runs across the U.S. Tom's daughter Elizabeth Hanks appears in the movie as the girl on the school bus who refuses to let young Forrest (Michael Conner Humphreys) sit next to her.[36]Joe Pesci was considered for the role of Lieutenant Dan Taylor, which was eventually given to Gary Sinise.[37] Sinise drew inspiration from the struggles that Vietnam veterans, some on his wife\u2019s side of his family, were going through when returning from serving in Vietnam.[38]David Alan Grier, Ice Cube and Dave Chappelle were offered the role of Benjamin Buford Blue, but all three turned it down.[39][40] Chappelle, who said he believed the film would be unsuccessful, has been reported as saying that he regrets not taking the role. Hanks was aware of Chappelle's disappointment in missing out on the part and agreed to work with him in a future movie, which ended up being You've Got Mail.[39] Rapper Tupac Shakur also auditioned.[41]\n
\nGump with United States PresidentJohn F. Kennedy. A variety of visual effects were used to incorporate Tom Hanks into archive footage with various historical figures and events.\n
Ken Ralston and his team at Industrial Light & Magic were responsible for the film's visual effects. Using CGI techniques, it was possible to depict Gump meeting deceased personages and shaking their hands. Hanks was first shot against a blue screen along with reference markers so that he could line up with the archive footage.[49] To record the voices of the historical figures, voice actors were filmed and special effects were used to alter lip-syncing for the new dialogue.[19] Archival footage was used and with the help of such techniques as chroma key, image warping, morphing, and rotoscoping, Hanks was integrated into it.\n
In one Vietnam War scene, Gump carries Bubba away from an incoming napalm attack. To create the effect, stunt actors were initially used for compositing purposes. Then, Hanks and Williamson were filmed, with Williamson supported by a cable wire as Hanks ran with him. The explosion was then filmed, and the actors were digitally added to appear just in front of the explosions. The jet fighters and napalm canisters were also added by CGI.[50]\n
The CGI removal of actor Gary Sinise's legs, after his character had them amputated, was achieved by wrapping his legs with a blue fabric, which later facilitated the work of the \"roto-paint\" team to paint out his legs from every single frame. At one point, while hoisting himself into his wheelchair, his legs are used for support.[51]\n
The scene where Forrest spots Jenny at a peace rally at the Lincoln Memorial and Reflecting Pool in Washington, D.C., required visual effects to create the large crowd of people. Over two days of filming, approximately 1,500 extras were used.[52] At each successive take, the extras were rearranged and moved into a different quadrant away from the camera. With the help of computers, the extras were multiplied to create a crowd of several hundred thousand people.[33][52]\n
Produced on a budget of $55 million, Forrest Gump opened in 1,595 theaters in the United States and Canada grossing $24,450,602 in its opening weekend. Motion picture business consultant and screenwriter Jeffrey Hilton suggested to producer Wendy Finerman to double the P&A (film marketing budget) based on his viewing of an early print of the film. The budget was immediately increased, in line with his advice. In its opening weekend, the film placed first at the US box office, narrowly beating The Lion King, which was in its fourth week of release.[53] For the first twelve weeks of release, the film was in the top 3 at the US box office, topping the list 5 times, including in its tenth week of release.[54] Paramount removed the film from release in the United States when its gross hit $300 million in January 1995, and it was the second-highest-grossing film of the year, behind The Lion King with $305 million.[55][56] The film was reissued on February 17, 1995, after the Academy Awards nominations were announced.[57] After the reissue in 1,100 theaters, the film grossed an additional $29 million in the United States and Canada, bringing its total to $329.7 million, making it the third-highest-grossing film at that time behind only E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial and Jurassic Park, and was Paramount's biggest, surpassing Raiders of the Lost Ark.[54][58][59]Forrest Gump held the record for being the highest-grossing Paramount film until it was taken by Titanic three years later in 1997. However, it remained the highest-grossing film solely distributed by Paramount until it was surpassed by Shrek the Third 13 years later in 2007.[60] For 12 years, it remained as the highest-grossing film starring Tom Hanks; it was surpassed in 2006 by The Da Vinci Code.[61]Box Office Mojo estimates that the film sold over 78.5 million tickets in the US and Canada in its initial theatrical run.[62]\n
The film took 66 days to surpass $250 million and was the fastest grossing Paramount film to pass $100 million, $200 million, and $300 million in box office receipts (at the time of its release).[63][64][65] After reissues, the film has gross receipts of $330,252,182 in the U.S. and Canada and $347,693,217 in international markets for a total of $677,945,399 worldwide. Even with such revenue, the film was known as a \"successful failure\"; due to distributors' and exhibitors' high fees, Paramount's \"losses\" clocked in at $62 million, leaving executives realizing the necessity of better deals.[66] This has also been associated with Hollywood accounting, where expenses are inflated to minimize profit sharing.[67]\n
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 76% of 156 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 7.9/10. The website's consensus reads: \"Tom Hanks' rigorously earnest performance keeps Forrest Gump sincere even when it gets glib with American history, making for a whimsical odyssey of debatable wisdom but undeniable heart.\"[68] At the website Metacritic, the film earned a rating of 82 out of 100 based on 20 reviews by mainstream critics, indicating \"universal acclaim\".[69] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film a rare \"A+\" grade.[70]\n
The story was commended by several critics. Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times wrote, \"I've never met anyone like Forrest Gump in a movie before, and for that matter I've never seen a movie quite like 'Forrest Gump.' Any attempt to describe him will risk making the movie seem more conventional than it is, but let me try. It's a comedy, I guess. Or maybe a drama. Or a dream. The screenplay by Eric Roth has the complexity of modern fiction...The performance is a breathtaking balancing act between comedy and sadness, in a story rich in big laughs and quiet truths...What a magical movie.\"[71] Todd McCarthy of Variety wrote that the film \"has been very well worked out on all levels, and manages the difficult feat of being an intimate, even delicate tale played with an appealingly light touch against an epic backdrop.\"[72] In contrast, Anthony Lane of The New Yorker called the film \"Warm, wise, and wearisome as hell.\"[73]Owen Gleiberman of Entertainment Weekly said that the film was \"glib, shallow, and monotonous\" and \"reduces the tumult of the last few decades to a virtual-reality theme park: a baby-boomer version of Disney's America.\"[74]\n
Gump garnered comparisons to fictional character Huckleberry Finn, as well as U.S. politicians Ronald Reagan, Pat Buchanan and Bill Clinton.[75][76][77][78] Peter Chomo writes that Gump acts as a \"social mediator and as an agent of redemption in divided times\".[79]Peter Travers of Rolling Stone called Gump \"everything we admire in the American character \u2013 honest, brave, and loyal with a heart of gold.\"[80]The New York Times reviewer Janet Maslin called Gump a \"hollow man\" who is \"self-congratulatory in his blissful ignorance, warmly embraced as the embodiment of absolutely nothing.\"[81] Marc Vincenti of Palo Alto Weekly called the character \"a pitiful stooge taking the pie of life in the face, thoughtfully licking his fingers.\"[82] Bruce Kawin and Gerald Mast's textbook on film history notes that Forrest Gump's dimness was a metaphor for glamorized nostalgia in that he represented a blank slate onto which the Baby Boomer generation projected their memories of those events.[83]\n
Writing in 2004, Entertainment Weekly said, \"Nearly a decade after it earned gazillions and swept the Oscars, Robert Zemeckis's ode to 20th-century America still represents one of cinema's most clearly drawn lines in the sand. One half of folks see it as an artificial piece of pop melodrama, while everyone else raves that it's sweet as a box of chocolates.\"[84]\n
In 2015, The Hollywood Reporter polled hundreds of academy members, asking them to re-vote on past controversial decisions. Academy members said that, given a second chance, they would award the 1994 Oscar for Best Picture to The Shawshank Redemption instead.[85]\n
Winston Groom was paid $350,000 for the screenplay rights to his novel Forrest Gump and was contracted for a 3 percent share of the film's net profits.[86] However, Paramount and the film's producers did not pay him the percentage, using Hollywood accounting to posit that the blockbuster film lost money. Tom Hanks, by contrast, contracted for a percent share of the film's gross receipts instead of a salary, and he and director Zemeckis each received $40 million.[86][87] In addition, Groom was not mentioned once in any of the film's six Oscar-winner speeches.[88]\n
Groom's dispute with Paramount was later effectively resolved after Groom declared he was satisfied with Paramount's explanation of their accounting, this coinciding with Groom receiving a seven-figure contract with Paramount for film rights to another of his books, Gump & Co.[89] This film was never made, remaining in development hell for at least a dozen years.[90]\n
Forrest Gump was first released on VHS on April 27, 1995, and on Laserdisc the following day. The laserdisc was THX certified and released without chapters, requiring the film be watched start to finish. Film magazines of the period stated this was at the request of Zemeckis who wanted viewers to enjoy the film in its entirety. It became the best-selling adult sell-through video with sales of over 12 million.[91] \nA widescreen VHS release debuted a year later on September 10, 1996.[92] It was released in a two-disc DVD set on August 28, 2001.[93] Special features included director and producer commentaries, production featurettes, and screen tests.[94] The film was released on Blu-ray in November 2009.[95] Paramount released the film on Ultra HD Blu-ray in June 2018.[96] On May 7, 2019, Paramount Pictures released a newly remastered two-disc Blu-ray that contains bonus content.[97]\n
In December 2011, Forrest Gump was selected for preservation in the Library of Congress' National Film Registry.[100] The Registry said that the film was \"honored for its technological innovations (the digital insertion of Gump seamlessly into vintage archival footage), its resonance within the culture that has elevated Gump (and what he represents in terms of American innocence) to the status of folk hero, and its attempt to engage both playfully and seriously with contentious aspects of the era's traumatic history.\"[101]\n
\"I don't want to sound like a bad version of 'the child within'. But the childlike innocence of Forrest Gump is what we all once had. It's an emotional journey. You laugh and cry. It does what movies are supposed to do: make you feel alive.\"\n
Various interpretations have been suggested for the feather present at the opening and conclusion of the film. Sarah Lyall of The New York Times noted several suggestions made about the feather: \"Does the white feather symbolize The Unbearable Lightness of Being? Forrest Gump's impaired intellect? The randomness of experience?\"[102] Hanks interpreted the feather as: \"Our destiny is only defined by how we deal with the chance elements to our life and that's kind of the embodiment of the feather as it comes in. Here is this thing that can land anywhere and that it lands at your feet. It has theological implications that are really huge.\"[103] Sally Field compared the feather to fate, saying: \"It blows in the wind and just touches down here or there. Was it planned or was it just perchance?\"[104] Visual effects supervisor Ken Ralston compared the feather to an abstract painting: \"It can mean so many things to so many different people.\"[105]\n
Hanks states that \"the film is non-political and thus non-judgmental\".[77] Nevertheless, CNN's Crossfire debated in 1994 whether the film promoted conservative values or was an indictment of the counterculture of the 1960s. Thomas Byers called it \"an aggressively conservative film\" in a Modern Fiction Studies article.[106]\n
\n
\n
\n
All over the political map, people have been calling Forrest their own. But, Forrest Gump isn't about politics or conservative values. It's about humanity, it's about respect, tolerance and unconditional love.\n
It has been noted that while Gump follows a very conservative lifestyle, Jenny's life is full of countercultural embrace, complete with drug use, promiscuity, and antiwar rallies, and that their eventual marriage might be a kind of reconciliation.[71] Jennifer Hyland Wang argues in a Cinema Journal article that Jenny's death to an unnamed virus \"symbolizes the death of liberal America and the death of the protests that defined a decade\" in the 1960s. She also notes that the film's screenwriter, Eric Roth, developed the screenplay from the novel and transferred to Jenny \"all of Gump's flaws and most of the excesses committed by Americans in the 1960s and 1970s\".[79]\n
Other commentators believe the film forecast the 1994 Republican Revolution and used the image of Forrest Gump to promote movement leader Newt Gingrich's traditional, conservative values. Jennifer Hyland Wang observes that the film idealizes the 1950s, as made evident by the lack of \"Whites Only\"-signs in Gump's Southern childhood, and envisions the 1960s as a period of social conflict and confusion. She argues that this sharp contrast between the decades criticizes the counterculture values and reaffirms conservatism.[79] Wang argues that the film was used by Republican politicians to illustrate a \"traditional version of recent history\" to gear voters toward their ideology for the congressional elections.[79] Presidential candidate Bob Dole stated that the film's message was \"no matter how great the adversity, the American Dream is within everybody's reach\".[79]\n
In 1995, National Review included Forrest Gump in its list of the \"Best 100 Conservative Movies\" of all time,[107] and ranked it number four on its \"25 Best Conservative Movies of the Last 25 Years\" list.[108]National Review's John Miller wrote that \"Tom Hanks plays the title-character, an amiable dunce who is far too smart to embrace the lethal values of the 1960s. The love of his life, wonderfully played by Robin Wright Penn, chooses a different path; she becomes a drug-addled hippie, with disastrous results.\"[109]\n
Professor James Burton at Salisbury University argues that conservatives claimed Forrest Gump as their own due less to the content of the film and more to the historical and cultural context of 1994. Burton claims that the film's content and advertising campaign were affected by the cultural climate of the 1990s, which emphasized family-values and American values, epitomized in the book Hollywood vs. America. He claims that this climate influenced the apolitical nature of the film, which allowed many different political interpretations.[110]\n
Some commentators see the conservative readings of Forrest Gump as indicating the death of irony in American culture. Vivian Sobchack notes that the film's humor and irony rely on the assumption of the audience's historical knowledge.[110]\n
The soundtrack reached a peak of number 2 on the Billboard album chart.[111] The soundtrack went on to sell twelve million copies, and is one of the top selling albums in the US.[112] The Oscar-nominated score for the film was composed and conducted by Alan Silvestri and released on August 2, 1994.\n
The screenplay for the sequel was written by Eric Roth in 2001. It is based on the original novel's sequel, Gump and Co., written by Winston Groom in 1995. Roth's script begins with Forrest sitting on a bench waiting for his son to return from school. After the September 11 attacks, Roth, Zemeckis, and Hanks decided the story was no longer \"relevant.\"[113] In March 2007, however, it was reported Paramount producers took another look at the screenplay.[90]\n
On the first page of the sequel novel, Forrest Gump tells readers \"Don't never let nobody make a movie of your life's story,\" and \"Whether they get it right or wrong, it doesn't matter.\"[114] The first chapter of the book suggests the real-life events surrounding the film have been incorporated into Forrest's storyline, and that Forrest got a lot of media attention as a result of the film.[20] During the course of the sequel novel, Gump runs into Tom Hanks and at the end of the novel in the film's release, includes Gump going on The David Letterman Show and attending the Academy Awards.\n

The six-time Oscar-winning 'Forrest Gump' is turning 25. Read what the cast has been up to in the years since, including Tom Hanks, Robin Wright and Sally Field.
This year marks the 25th anniversary of the theatrical release of Forrest Gump, which made $707.7 million at the domestic box office (adjusted for inflation).
\n
Forrest Gump follows the story of a man whose slow-wittedness doesn't hold him back. As his life unfolds, he becomes a college football star, Medal of Honor-winning soldier, successful shrimp boat entrepreneur and a man in love with his first friend, Jenny. The film won six Academy Awards, including best picture, best director, best adapted screenplay, best film editing and best visual effects, along with a best actor statuette for Tom Hanks.
\n
To celebrate the 25th anniversary, Paramount Pictures held an outdoor screening of Robert Zemeckis' film May 24 on the National Mall in Washington D.C., in a nod to the scene in front of the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool. Wendy Finerman, Oscar-winning producer of the film, and retired Sergeant First Class Sammy L. Davis both attended the screening. Davis' real-life Medal of Honor ceremony appeared in the film, with Hanks superimposed.
\n
The 1995 cast has gone on to star in more Oscar-nominated films, on Broadway and in television, and some have done their share of producing and directing. Read on to see what the cast has been up to since the movie first hit theaters on July 6, 1994.
\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\tImage Credit: Paramount Pictures/Photofest; Matt Winkelmeyer/Getty Images\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\n\t
Before Forrest Gump hit theaters, Hanks was already a seasoned actor with an Academy Award under his belt for his performance in Philadelphia. A year later, he won another best actor Oscar for Forrest Gump. Throughout his career, he has been nominated for five Academy Awards, 12 Emmys and nine Golden Globes, winning for his acting and directing. Hanks also received a Kennedy Center Honors award from President Obama in 2014 for his contributions to American culture.
\n
Additionally, before Sally Field played Hanks' mother, Hanks and Fields worked together in the 1988 movie Punchline, where Hanks' character developed feelings for Field's, a much different relationship to theirs in Forrest Gump. Hanks, who also has starred in Saving Private Ryan and Cast Away, currently can be heard reprising his role as Woody in Toy Story 4.
\n
His next movie, A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, which is about the real-life friendship of journalist Tom Junod and Fred Rogers (played by Hanks), will be released later this year. He also is slated to play Colonel Tom Parker in Baz Luhrmann's as-yet-untitled upcoming Elvis Presley bio-drama.
\n
Hanks made his Broadway debut in 2013 in Nora Ephron's posthumously produced play about the New York newspaper business, Lucky Guy, receiving a lead actor Tony Award nomination for his role as real-life police-beat reporter Mike McAlary.

Robin Wright got her big break in Hollywood with the soap opera Santa Barbara, which she starred in for several years. After her soap opera days, she starred in the film The Princess Bride alongside Cary Elwes, and a few years later played Jenny in Forrest Gump. Her portrayal of Jenny, Forrest Gump’s first friend, who becomes a free-love hippie and after years of traveling and living a wild life returns to Forrest, earned her a Golden Globe nomination.
\n
She later went on to appear in The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, and in Wonder Women. She has been starring in House of Cards since 2013, which earned her two Golden Globe nominations, winning one, and five Emmy nominations. After fellow House of Cards star Kevin Spacey was accused of sexual assault, the actress, executive producer and sometimes director of the show also became its sole leading star for the final season last year.
Gary Sinise plays Lieutenant Dan Taylor, Forrest's commanding officer in the Vietnam War and, later, his friend. In Vietnam, their platoon gets ambushed, resulting in Lt. Dan losing both legs and Forrest saving his life. Furious at Forrest for saving him, Dan finally softens toward Forrest and their relationship eventually changes into friendship, later becoming business partners in the Bubba Gump Shrimp company.
\n
Off camera, after 9/11, Sinise created the Gary Sinise Foundation to honor veterans, first responders and their families. He also created the "Lt. Dan Band," which performs 30 shows a year for military bases and charities around the United States. For his service work, Sinise received the Bob Hope Award for Excellence in Entertainment and was presented with the Spirit of Hope Award by the Department of Defense.
\n
In addition to his charitable pursuits, since Forrest Gump, Sinise has appeared on Broadway for both The Grapes of Wrath and One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. He also starred on CSI: NY for nine seasons and Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders. He can be seen in Good Joe Bell in 2020 with Mark Wahlberg and Connie Britton.
Before playing Forrest Gump's mother, Sally Field had already received two Academy Awards for her roles in Norma Rae and Places in the Heart. The daughter of actress Margaret Field, she started acting at 18 with her role in the television series Gidget.
\n
Throughout her career she has starred in films, television and on Broadway, and directed. In addition to her Oscars, she has won three Primetime Emmy Awards, two Golden Globes and a Screen Actors Guild Award, and was nominated for a Tony Award and two BAFTA Awards.
\n
Before her role in Forrest Gump, the actress starred in Steel Magnolias and Mrs. Doubtfire. Since Forrest Gump, she has been in the 2012 Oscar-winning movie Lincoln, The Amazing Spider-Man and its sequel and Hello, My Name is Doris.
\n
Field appeared on Broadway in Edward Albee's The Goat, or Who is Sylvia? and the 2017 revival of Tennessee Williams' The Glass Menagerie, for which she received a Tony nomination as best actress in a play. More recently, she made her London stage debut in Arthur Miller's All My Sons, starring opposite Bill Pullman.

Williamson played Benjamin Buford "Bubba" Blue, Forrest’s best friend whom he meets in the U.S. Army, where their platoon is ambushed and Bubba is killed. Before they are sent off to Vietnam, Bubba convinces Forrest to join him in pursuing a shrimping business after they finish their service, a promise that Forrest keeps. Partnering with Lt. Dan, Forrest names it the Bubba Gump Shrimp company, and later gifts half his earnings to Bubba's family.
\n
Williamson has since been in Con Air and Free Willy, and played Gabriel, the troubled brother of Denzel Washington’s character, in the 2016 Oscar-nominated movie Fences. He has also appeared in the television shows Boomtown, 24 and Justified.
\n
Williamson also briefly reunited with his Forrest Gump co-star Sinise in several episodes of CSI: NY. He also had recurring roles in Designated Survivor and Chicago P.D.
Haley Joel Osment started his acting career at age 4. His work before Forrest Gump includes a Pizza Hut commercial set at a mall. After gaining attention from his commercial, he booked his first film, Forrest Gump, where he played Forrest Gump Jr., the son of Jenny and Forrest.
\n
His role in the movie did not bring him stardom, though; that came from his role in the Oscar-nominated The Sixth Sense in 1999 with co-star Bruce Willis. For the movie, he received an Oscar nomination for best supporting actor at age 11, losing to his future co-star of Secondhand Lions, Michael Caine.
\n
He later went on to star in Pay It Forward and appeared in Steven Spielberg’s Oscar-nominated A.I. Artificial Intelligence in 2001. Throughout his childhood, he appeared in various TV series, including The Jeff Foxworthy Show and Murphy Brown, and made guest appearances on The Larry Sanders Show. He has voiced characters in The Hunchback of Notre Dame II and The Jungle Book 2, and in 2008 Osment was in the short-lived Broadway revival of David Mamet’s American Buffalo.
\n
Within recent years, Osment appeared in the 2015 film Entourage, had a recurring role in HBO’s Silicon Valley and can be seen in the Netflix film about killer Ted Bundy, Extremely Wicked Shockingly Evil and Vile, told from his girlfriend's perspective.

Forrest Gump still stands as one of the most popular movies in the history of cinema. For many, it's hard to flip through the television channels and not stop on the film, even if they have seen it a million times. It is a classic movie with fabulous performances and several memorable scenes. At the same time, it is definitely one of the most quoted movies of all time. Forrest Gump has everything when it comes to cinema: drama, comedy, romance, and even war. Director Robert Zemeckis has proved over and over again that he is one of the best filmmakers working, and his collaborations with Hanks have delivered classic stories.
\n
The cast of Forrest Gump was a sheer array of talent. Most notable is Tom Hanks who takes the leading role of Gump. Hanks would go on to win an Academy Award for Best Leading Actor for his performance. Recently, Hanks has reunited with his Forrest Gump team, including writer Eric Roth and director Robert Zemeckis, for a new film. The project will be an adaptation of Richard McGuire’s novel, Here. The rest of the Forrest Gump cast, including Sally Field and Gary Sinise, also delivered fantastic performances. Let's take a look at what the cast of Forrest Gump is up to today.
Since the release of Forrest Gump, Tom Hanks has taken up other jobs in Hollywood including writing, directing, and producing. Hanks is the owner of a production company called Playtone, named after the record label in his feature directorial debut, That Thing You Do. Currently, Hanks is an executive producer for a WWII drama entitled Masters Of The Air, following a group of American pilots behind enemy lines. A trailer for Baz Luhrman's Elvisbiopic has recently been released. Hanks will be playing Elvis' manager Colonel Tom Parker. Hanks will also be reuniting with Robert Zemeckis once again, playing the role of Geppetto in Pinocchio, which is currently in post-production.
Robin Wright played the iconic role of Jenny, Forrest Gump's love interest over the course of his life. Wright has also been taking on directing and producing roles. Most recently, Wright directed two episodes of Netflix's acclaimed series, Ozark. She certainly gained her experience after directing ten episodes of House Of Cards, which she also starred in. As far as producing goes, Wright is currently producing a drama set in Appalachia entitled Where All Light Tends To Go. The film will star Wright, as well as Billy Bob Thornton and Jackie Earle Haley. Wright is an exceptional actor with a long career still ahead of her.
Gary Sinise, who played Lieutenant Dan Taylor in Forrest Gump, has established a foundation very relevant to his role in the film. In 2011, he created the Gary Sinise Foundation, dedicated to helping and providing resources for wounded veterans. He has also been appearing on television. Most recently, he took the role of Robert Ellman in the popular series, 13 Reasons Why. As far as film acting goes, Sinise continues to work. He played Sheriff Westin in Reinaldo Marcus Green's Joe Bell and has been rumored to have a role in an upcoming WWII drama entitled, No Better Place To Die, written and directed by Dale Dye.
Sally Field played the strong and loving Mrs. Gump in Forrest Gump. Field continues to deliver iconic roles to this day. It was recently announced that Field, as well as Jane Fonda, will be starring in a movie alongside Tom Brady. Brady will also be producing the film. Field is also starring in the upcoming series, Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty, appearing on HBO. Field will be playing the role of Jesse Buss, alongside an ensemble cast of A-list talent. As far as other feature films go, Field will be in the upcoming film Spoiler Alert, directed by Michael Showalter. The cast also includes Jim Parsons and Bill Irwin.
No one will ever forget Forrest Gump's loyal best friend Bubba, played by Mykelti Williamson. Williamson has done a lot of television work since Forrest Gump and continues to act today. He recently played the role of Preston Webb on Law & Order: Organized Crime. Mykelti has also been directing projects. He recently directed two episodes of Sweet Magnolias starring JoAnna Garcia Swisher and Brooke Elliot. It is clear to say that Williamson is still a very talented actor, and judging by his performance as Gabriel in Denzel Washington's Fences, we are going to be seeing a lot more of him.
Haley Joel Osment made his feature film debut as Forrest Gump's son, who goes by the same name. Since then, Osment has had a long and successful acting career, even being nominated for an Academy Award for his role in The Sixth Sense. Osment continues to act to this day and has even taken some recent voice-over roles in American Dad and Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous. At the same time, Osment has a part on the podcast series, Blood Weed. As far as film work goes, Osment will be starring alongside Alison Brie in the upcoming romance, Somebody I Used To Know, directed by Dave Franco. Osment has also proved, with many of his films, that he can take on comedic roles as well. He will be starring in the upcoming comedy, Not An Artist directed by Alexi Pappas and Jeremy Teicher.

When Forrest gets up to talk at the Vietnam rally in Washington, the microphone plug is pulled and you cannot hear him. According to Tom Hanks he said, "Sometimes when people go to Vietnam, they go home to their mommas without any legs. Sometimes they don't go home at all. That's a bad thing. That's all I have to say about that."
When Forrest is given his discharge papers, he sets down his ping-pong paddle and (computerized) ball to salute the officer. When he picks the paddle back up, he also pretends to pick up the ball, which didn't end up getting animated.
Every once in a while, something comes along that hasn't been done before. This movie is one of those things. First of all, we have a principal character whose take on life is one where you don't judge it; you live it. I know he's a film character. It doesn't matter because we use images such as these to inspire us and to give us our own way of treating each day. Forrest lets no grass grow under his feet. He is the consummate optimist. He doesn't complain because he sees early on that it does you no good. His life is one adventure after another, in and out of the public eye, but his shyness and demeanor don't ever get to his head. He is the epitome of patience, something sadly lacking in the lives of most Americans. He is pushed around by the gusts of time and always lands on his feet. His relationship with a troubled girl is the one consistent thing in his life, and that is also shows his pugnaciousness. There are some commentators and reviewers who call this character stupid. He is a slow processor, but his stability lies in his morality and his consistency. His mother raised him well.
Tom Hanks has become our new Jimmy Stewart. His roles are about human emotion and dedication. He is the everyman in many ways. Obviously, the subject matter has changed, but you can bank on his decision making when it comes to film.
The other heroes are the special effects people. They are able to make this work; to create an incredible world for him to function within. The news clips are quite marvelous. I usually put this film in my top ten.

"page_snippet": "'Forrest Gump' was released on July 6, 1994. See what the cast of the epic dramedy \u2014 including Tom Hanks and Sally Field \u2014 has been up to since the film's release.Following Forrest Gump, she appeared in Message in a Bottle (1999), Unbreakable (2000), White Oleander (2002), Beowulf (2007), Moneyball (2011), Wonder Woman (2017), Blade Runner 2049 (2017), Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) and Devil's Peak (2023). Wright garnered acclaim \u2014 and several Emmy nominations \u2014 for her role as Claire Underwood on the Netflix series House of Cards, which aired from 2013 to 2018. Based on Winston Groom's novel of the same name, Forrest Gump premiered on July 6, 1994. See what the cast of the epic dramedy\u2014 including Sally Field and Tom Hanks as the titular character \u2014 has been up to since the release of the Oscar-winning film ... Anyone know what happened to Tom Hanks after he took home the Best Actor Oscar for his role as the intellectually disabled but devoted and wise Forrest Gump? Robin Wright, who played Forrest's troubled childhood friend and eventual bride, was well known for her role as Buttercup in 1987's The Princess Bride. Following Forrest Gump, she appeared in Message in a Bottle (1999), Unbreakable (2000), White Oleander (2002), Beowulf (2007), Moneyball (2011), Wonder Woman (2017), Blade Runner 2049 (2017), Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) and Devil's Peak (2023). The role also inspired Sinise's ongoing work with veterans through the Gary Sinise Foundation. He also tours with his Lt. Dan Band, which plays at military bases. Following Forrest Gump, Sinise appeared alongside Hanks again in 1995's Apollo 13 and 1999's The Green Mile.",
