how can one so great act so dumb but great

Rating: Null/10 (2 September 2003)

I don't want to ramble too long like usual but I just want to try and express to far more experienced movie buffs than myself why i love this film.
I rented Forrest Gump when i was about 10 years old, I don't know why it particularly stood out for me. I watched it and finished up crying I didn't know why i still wonder why I cried at it but now i realize it was pathos for that character which caused my tears. Back then, as i still am now I was popular, I didn't have great friend but i was/am well-liked (not sounding big-headed I hope), and now since becoming a part-time cinephile I realised the reason I love movies and love this movie was that it was taking me to new surroundings and as the tagline suggests see the world through the eyes of Forrest Gump. I did that and enjoyed that insight and so enjoyed this film. I'm not gonna pap on about the plot because i always do that and I'm sick of writing spoilers all the time. I don't really think that this view will urge anyone to love this film but i want to say this
