Forrest Gump, while not intelligent, has accidentally been present at many historic moments, but his true love, Jenny, eludes him.

The film was a huge commercial success, earning USD$677 million worldwide during its theatrical run (the top grossing film in North America released that year). The film garnered a total of 13 Academy Award nominations, of which it won six, including Best Picture, Best Visual Effects, Best Director (Robert Zemeckis), and Best Actor (Tom Hanks).The film tells the story of a simple man (or gump) and his epic journey through life, meeting historical figures, influencing popular culture and experiencing first-hand historic events while largely unaware of their significance, due to his lower than average intelligence. The film differs substantially from the book on which it was based.

Plot The movie begins with a feather falling to the feet of Forrest Gump (Tom Hanks) sitting at a bus stop in Savannah, Georgia. Forrest tells the story of his life to a woman seated next to him (the listeners at the bus stop change regularly throughout his narration, each showing a different attitude towards Gumps narration, ranging from disbelief and indifference to rapt veneration).Forrest is shown to have been taught much about life by his mother (Sally Field). Forrest often recalls her favorite sayings, including "Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you gonna get" and "Stupid is as stupid does." Both sayings became popular catchphrases following the movies release. Other people who play key roles in Forrests life include Jenny Curran, a childhood friend who is physically and sexually abused by her father; Benjamin Buford "Bubba" Blue (Mykelti Williamson), a young black fisherman who serves with Forrest in the Vietnam War and knows "everything there is to know about shrimping"; and Lieutenant Dan Taylor (Gary Sinise), under whose command Forrest and Bubba serve. A few years after the war is over, Forrest proposes marriage to Jenny. She turns him down.
