vr_trakowskiI hadn’t seen Forrest Gump in years--for instance, I’d totally forgotten about the running bit. It holds up well. I want to shake Jenny for most of the film, though, what a twit.
The funniest bits for me are, of course, Lt. Dan’s line about being an astronaut, and one of Jenny’s boyfriends having the name Wesley, even if they didn’t spell it the same.
It’s weird--normally a movie narrated throughout would drive me up the wall, but this one works. I am always tempted to buy the soundtrack--the music is beautiful--but it is seriously earwormy.
P.S.--never, ever read the book. Ever.
