FORREST GUMP

In this article I have written about the film Forrest Gump, I have chosen it because I love it and because it is a film which struck me a lot. Here you have my article about it.



Forrest Gump is an American film directed by Robert Zemeckis and starring by Tom Hanks
(Forrest Gump), Robin Wright (Jennifer Curran), Gary Sinise (lieutenant Dan Taylor) and Sally Field (Madame Gump), released in 1994.

The protagonist of this film, Robert Zemeckis, was born the 9th July, 1956 in Concord. He is actor and filmmaker. In 1993 he received his first Oscar for Best Actor for his interpretation of a homosexual with AIDS in Philadelphia. He received his second statuette one year later, for his work in Forrest Gump. An achievement that had only managed the actor Spencer Tracy. The film is based on the 1986 novel of the same name written by Winston Groom. Forrest Gump is a dramatic comedy movie.



The film Forrest Gump is about several decades of the life of Forrest Gump (the protagonist), he is a simple man with a low I.Q. but good intentions. Forrest faces many tribulations throughout his life, but he never lets any problem interfere in his happiness. Although he has problems, he continue to believe that good things will happen and he goes after his dreams. 
He discovers that he is able to run faster than most other people after he gets his braces. This skill allows Gump to gain a football scholarship, to become famous for his ability, and also when he was a child to escape his bullies.
While Gump achieves the majority of the things he hoped, there still is a much more difficult task, to win the heart of his life-long friend Jenny. Although the two characters grew up together and shared a very close friendship, as the movie progresses they grow apart.
Will Forrest achieve his last desire?



In my opinion this film is very motivating and good to see how people with many problems do not lose the hope to get their achievements. It is a film that we can learn a lot, and that has a very important purpose. I like it a lot because of this, and I recomend all the people to see it because it is fantastic!
