Do we decide our own destiny? Or is fate already fixed for us?
How beautiful is a movie to find novelty every time you watch it? We, the audience, are saddened by how much a character can be portrayed – when we see him well, our minds get better, just how deeply can a character be introduced to the audience? The answer to this question may have been known to a writer named Winston Groom. He wrote a book in 1968, which he named “Forest Gump”. Later, director Robert Jemekis made a movie of the same name based on the story and the main character of the book, which is unparalleled in the history of filmmaking. As long as the earth exists; This movie will go on with the people till then, but it will never get old.
I used to watch the movie on TV when I was young but I didn’t understand anything, I thought it would be an ordinary movie. I used to watch people’s reviews and think what is so ahamari in this movie, then I thought let’s take a good look at it. After sitting for a long time I was fascinated, what I saw it! This movie is an example of how beautiful a movie can be.
The plot of the movie revolves around the main character of the story, who lags behind the common man in terms of intelligence. Simply put, its IQ is much lower than the average person. The various stories that have taken place in the life of this foolish man, including the desire to get back his childhood lover even in the midst of a big storm, have been narrated from his point of view.
There is always a friend of the hero or villain in the movie, who is a fool. Even if the hero is always highlighted on the villain, the job of that fool is to make people laugh and make them laugh. Besides, they have no other job. But what if this fool has become a hero? This is exactly what the director has shown in this movie.
Forrest Gump is the first Tom Hanks movie I’ve seen. He has done a lot of great acting, and very few actors have the ability to bring a character to life with their best. Acted so seriously that it is almost impossible to think of anyone else in his place in this character! After watching the movie, he will not be a fan; There are very few such people. His performance is bound to be appreciated by the audience. He won the Oscar for Best Actor that year for his performance in the movie, but it was not uncommon for him to win the Oscar. On the contrary, it was unusual not to get an Oscar for this extraordinary performance.
Tom Hanks did a great job in one word. The Forrest Gump character is incomplete without him. Robin Wright has also done very well in the role of the heroine, in the same movie he has presented himself in both good and bad ways in a perfect way. Besides, after Forrest, I liked the Lieutenant Dan character better, then the performance of Babbar was also very enjoyable. There is nothing better than this to prevent a partnership with Forrest.
Various great events in American history, great scandals have been shown through the eyes of Forrest. Standing at the door of Governor George Wallace’s schoolhouse in 1973, not allowing black people to enter the varsity, President Nixon’s Watergate scandal, US-China relations through ping-pong games, President Kennedy and many other true events are beautifully presented. If you haven’t seen this movie, you can’t guess. Many people cannot enjoy these things because they do not know history. I can’t say the details because it will become a spoiler, but when you sit down to watch the movie again after watching the movie, knowing the history, you will enjoy watching it a second time more than the first time. Moreover, various famous personalities have been presented so commonly in the movie that they will feel like a part of the story.
Tom Hanks agreed to act after reading the script of this movie for the first time, but on one condition. All the true events shown in the movie should be shown as true and perfect as possible. He did not charge a separate fee for the movie, but instead took a share of the movie. As a result, his income later stood at forty million dollars!
Forrest Gump won the Oscar for Best Picture of the Year in 1994, along with two of the best movies of all time, “The ShawShank Redemption” and “Pulp Fiction”. In addition to Best Picture, Best Actor, the movie won four more Oscars.
I have enjoyed the movie with a lot of joy from the beginning. I didn’t notice a reason to feel bad. The acting, the story is awesome. Moreover, the cinematography of the movie was also dazzling. There are some scenes that I want to see again and again. This movie made me laugh a lot, surprised me. It has made me upset in a few places. But I was not bothered for a while. I last saw it in 2016, after watching it three or four times, now I want to see it again.
Our lives are like boxes of chocolates, no one knows what tomorrow will be like. Take care of yourself and your loved ones in this catastrophic moment of the world. Stay at home as much as possible, be careful. And if you have time, take a look at this masterpiece, time will pass well.
“Forest Gump”, a movie that can’t be compared to beauty, Happy Watching.
