A truly magical film

Rating: Null/10 (20 October 2000)

I liked this one. A mentally challenged man meets presidents Kennedy and Nixon, serves in Vietnam, becomes a shrimp guru, discovers the truth about Watergate...all the while he never loses sight or stops looking for the one thing that is most important to him, the love of his girl Jenny. It might have its flaws, but what film doesn't? The cast is first-rate, and Mr. Hanks gives a great performance worthy of the Oscar he received. *** out of ****
