DML Top 50 #14 - Dad's Full (Spoiler) Review and Deep Dive of Forrest Gump

"Stupid is as stupid does." - Forrest Gump

Why watch this? There is something to be said for seeing a story through the eyes of the unsophisticated.

Dad's Review: This film is America. We get everything... all its shimmer and warts, it's beauty and imperfections. Be it peaceful Alabama cypress trees, napalm exploding in Vietnam, a quiet desert highway at sunset, a devastating storm at sea. We follow the life events of childlike Forrest Gump. On him we pin our hopes and dreams. This simple man shows us so much about ourselves. Hanks makes another wise role choice. It won 5 Oscars including Best Picture, Director and Actor.
