"Run Forrest run" and hi ran, taking all the emotions of his audiences. Tom Hanks was incredible in this awe-inspiring, astonishing 1994 movie directed by Robert Zemeckis. I am yet to meet a single person, no matter whether he is an action flick fanatic or singing romantic, who had watched this movie and didn't like it. The tagline of this movie says, "The world will never be the same once you've seen it through the eyes of Forrest Gump." How true !! Innocence is not dead yet. He achieved almost everything without ever longing for any, and always being indifferent to all. He wanted nothing except love. He was simple - too simple to be true. That's because he has an IQ lower than that of average human brain. And probably that is why he was so inspiring, so lovable. His was the purest heart you could ever imagine. That guy, with his simplicity and low IQ touched me and many who watched this movie, left me speechless. Only thing he had ever cared, ever endeavor for was his love, "the most beautiful thing he had ever seen", Jenny. But he was too perfect, too pure for her that really hurt me.
For my readers who are yet to watch this magical film, I'd just say, "Go for it guys. You will not be disappointed. Who knows, may be it can really change your world !"
Here are some of my favorite lines from the movie collected from IMDB.
Forrest Gump: My momma always said, "Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get."
Forrest Gump: I'm not a smart man... but I know what love is.
Forrest Gump: Stupid is as stupid does.
Mrs. Gump: You have to do the best with what God gave you.
Forrest Gump: Mama always said, dying was a part of life.
Young Jenny Curran: Dear God, make me a bird. So I could fly far. Far far away from here.
Forrest Gump: Now you wouldn't believe me if I told you, but I could run like the wind blows. From that day on, if I was ever going somewhere, I was running!
Forrest Gump: Hello. My name's Forrest, Forrest Gump. You want a chocolate?
Forrest Gump: The best thing about visiting the President is the food! Now, since it was all free, and I wasn't hungry but thirsty, I must've drank me fifteen Dr. Peppers.
Forrest Gump: My Mama always said you've got to put the past behind you before you can move on.
Forrest Gump: I don't know if we each have a destiny, or if we're all just floatin' around accidental-like on a breeze. But I, I think maybe it's both.
Coach Bryant: That kid may be the stupidest son of a bitch I've ever seen, but damn he can run!
Jenny Curran: Listen, you promise me something, OK? Just if you're ever in trouble, don't be brave. You just run, OK? Just run away.
Jenny Curran: Run, Forrest! Run!
