"One Of Tom's Best!"

Rating: 8/10 (10 July 2014)

Tom Hanks, Robin Wright, Gary Sinise, Mykelti Williamson and Sally Field star in Robert Zemeckis' 1994 drama based on the novel. This story focuses on slow-witted, Alabama gardener, Forrest Gump (Hanks) who reflects his life experiences through friendships and historical moments. Wright (The Princess Bride) plays Forrest's friend & love-interest, Jenny Curran, Sinise (Ransom) plays Forrest's army lieutenant & friend, Dan Taylor, Williamson (Heat) plays Forrest's best friend, Bubba and Field plays Forrest's mother. This is a great film that's definitely one of Tom's best with a good cast & excellent score by Alan Silvestri. I recommend this.
