Forrest Gump is an amazing movie! I’d seen parts of it over the years (“Run, Forrest, run!”), but hadn’t watched the full thing from start to finish until recently. I didn’t expect the ending to hit me so hard….Today was the first time I ever watched Forrest Gump. ultra popular movie with a cult following, sometimes recipe for disappointment because expectations get so high.
I really liked it though. The 2 and a half hours flew by. I thought it would be a pure comedy, but it was thought provoking and serious at times.
...also, Paramount+ is a terrible service. I felt like I could have watched it illegally using a random link online, and would get more stability.

What’s interesting is the author of the book said he pictured John Goodman as Forrest rather than Tom Hanks. That would have been interesting, as John Goodman is a versatile actor, but Tom Hanks was perfect for that role.
