Forrest Gump




The best damn actor in my opinion Tom Hanks in one of his best movies where his talent was put to good use. After years and years ive FINALLY managed to watch the movie. The first DVD i got happend to get stuck 1/3 of the way. the second one didnt even go 1/3. the third one i downloaded to find it had german audio. and the fourth one hit the jackpot. the movie was awesome. Tom Hank's acting of the character was unrivalled. but weirdly enough the more i watched, the more i jes hated the character of 'jenny'(Forrest's love of his ife)

Cos heres how the movies progressed in my mind. Forrest aint so bright u see. He's the kind of person nobody wants to have anything to do with. but nevertheless since he was a lil boy he had this friend jenny. he was in love with her all throughout the movie. she knows abt it but FOrrest jes wasnt mr.perfect. she knew she liked spending time with him and being with him. and even thought he was the best person she had met....not like the other scum. but everytime she'd jes walk out on him. she goes to performing nude infront of audiences, sleeping around with ppl, using drugs u name it. and all through it all, Forrest was the only one she could rely on, the one who came to save her sorry arse. But everytime she's come back to him after a fall and pretty soon be walking away again cos he still aint mr.perfect. he's jes too darn stupid and slow in the head for her.

One time she comes back to him, he asks her to marry him.
Forrest: "Will u marry me? I'd make a good husband"
Jenny: "U would forrest......"
Forrest: "...But u wont marry me"
Jenny: "u dont wanna marry me"
Forrest: "Why dont u love me jenny?...Im not a smart man, but i know what love is"
He then walks out and stands there and Jenny jes continues on her way and moves out of sight. That night she comes into his room, get into bed with him, says she loves him, has sex and leaves in the morning without a word.

Over THREE years later by which time she has now got a baby whose father is Forrest sends him a letter asking him to meet her. He goes to her and she apologises and introduces him to his son whom he didnt even know existed till that moment. Then he tells him that she has got a disease which would lead to her death soon and asks Forrest to marry her. She didnt even bother calling him up when she got pregnant or even when she gave birth. but the minute she discovered that she had a diesease which the doctors wont be able to cure her out of, she calls him up so that he would take care of his son when she has died. its sad. Even that one girl who treated him like a normal person too couldnt accept him or love him jes cos he lacked something. Even when he was the only one who had stood by her through all her mess ups and accepted her even after all she had done. atleast something good came out of it all. He got a son and that too to the woman he was in love with his whole life. yep, ive spoilt the ending for u but nevertheless this is a movie worth watching......if u havent watched it already, which almost everyone has probly watched by now. hehe

@yank: jes go to 'mininova' and search for "Forrest Gump eng" and u should get one that matches it.

@mode: it most certainly is true. its like theyve got this uncontrollable urge to get messed up, cheated on and get themselves into the most bizarre and unexplainable situations. u can actually go upto them in those situations and say "how anybody be stupid enough to be where u are or what uve done is beyond any level of making sense" and the ans ud receive would probly be "i dont know what i was thinking" . and ofcourse i dont mean ALL women :P
