In my more recent years watching Movies, I began to rate my most favourite films up to or should I say down to my least favourite. Top spot goes to Forrest Gump, for It's time one of the cleverest films of all time.
Now as I've said in a previous post, I said that Tom Hank's is my favourite actor, and in this movie, delivers an Oscar worthy role from start to finish. Directed by Robert Zemeckis, with an amazing cast including Robyn Wright, and Gary Sinise, an actor who I had never seen before, were all part of movie history that seemed to span a generation or more. Starting with Forrest as a small boy, whose Mother ran a Boarding house, there was just the two of them. Forrest was a special boy, who had Physical difficulties, which he miraculously recovered from, to join the US Army in Vietnam, and receive a Medal, for bravery, which is presented to him by President Johnson.
We see Forrest, playing Table Tennis, a sport which he possessed an uncanny ability. During these amazing events, he meets a young lady, Jenny, who he becomes more then friendly with. In his lack of understanding, he doesn't realise she is sick, as it turns out she has acquired AIDS.
Through the time span of this movie, we have a splendid Soundtrack that parallels the era, and this helps to make this movie a Masterpiece for all times.
