Seen through the eyes of an innocent, the latter half of the 20th Century appears deeply sad and disenfranchised in "Forrest Gump", available from Paramount home video in a comprehensive 2-disc set. Beginning in the much 'simpler' days of the 1950s, the film charts an epic journey through American history over the course of its running time, touching upon major events and personages in humorous and moving ways, and it gives us the opportunity to mourn our loss of innocence through laughter and tears.
A panorama which involves Forrest in historic events such as the birth of Elvis Presley's famous dance moves, the National Guard standoff with Governor George Wallace in Alabama during the desegregation of the South, the war in Viet Nam and the US - China ping pong tournaments, with Forrest often an unwitting participant, this film is an inspired bit of story-telling, veering from funny to endearing to heartbreaking repeatedly and effortlessly.
Forrest begins life as a boy with a spinal problem who has to wear corrective braces on his legs to keep his posture straight. Forrest is not a smart boy - below what now would be termed 'dull normal' - but he has a mother who will let nothing stand in the way of his getting a normal school education anyway. The first day of school, on the bus, Forrest meets Jenny, who become his closest friend and lifelong love.
Forrest tells much of the story in flashback to various people he meets while waiting for a bus. He tells them how one day, while being taunted by bullies for his intelligence and his physical ailment, Jenny tells his to "Run, Forrest, run!' - and he does! His personal power is in his legs, his single-minded determination to run fast and long. His running allows him a scholarship to University, where he, of course, tramples the opposing teams.
