Forrest Gump (Hanks), named after a civil war hero, grows up in Greenbow, Alabama, where his mother (Sally Field) runs a boarding house. Although Forrest is a little "slow" (his IQ is 75, 5 below the state's definition of "normal"), his mental impairment doesn't seem to bother him, his mother, or his best (and only) friend, Jenny Curran (played as an adult by Robin Wright). In fact, the naivete that comes through a limited understanding of the world around him gives Forrest a uniquely positive perspective of life. when we say that Forrest Gump is a lucky guy, i think most of u may think that he is so lucky to escape much trouble , but the LUCK is that he is so lucky to have such a good mother by my means. remember ?what his mother said at her last time in the world? "it's my time , it's just my time. oh,now, don't u be afraid ,sweetheart? death is just a part of life, something we're all destined to do. i didn't no it.but i was destined to be ur mother, and i did the best i could". yes ,she did! i just could hold tears when i watched this part, and once heared someone "life is like a box of chocolates, u never no what u r gonna get", the first pict flashed in my mind is Gump's mother , a lovly woman, a kind hearted mother!! so , next time when u watch the movie, remember that whether u r born healthy or not , whether u born in poor family or rich , whether u win ur life or lose, there allways be a woman stand behind u ,supporting u ,encourging u . I think that his whole life is a legend.His back'sas crooked as a politician.His intelligence quotient is below the normal level.But his mother never give him up and always try to encourage him as much as she can.She just want to tell him that he is a normal boy and can do everything like other boys and girls.His mother is a admirable woman.Because of his low intelligence quotient,His soul is so clear that he can hold back all his promise and
