Synopsis
Tom Hanks won his second Oscar in a row for his expertly sympathetic performance as the kind-hearted man-child who introduces himself with the line, "My name is Forrest Gump. People call me Forrest Gump." Waiting for a bus, Forrest relates his amazingly eventful life story through a series of flashbacks that span thirty years of post-war American history. He lives through the Vietnam war and - thanks to director Robert Zemeckis' dazzling use of digital effects - crosses paths with everyone from former US President Richard Nixon to Beatle John Lennon.
