Forrest Gump

 

The title character leads viewers through an accidental travelogue of American social history from the early 1960s through the present in this revisionist fable. Vietnam,... more...desegregation, Watergate and more are presented from the perspective of Hanks' lovably slow-witted character as he finds himself embroiled in situations he can't quite comprehend. Academy Award Nominations: 13, including Best Picture, Best Actor--Tom Hanks, and Best Director. Academy Awards: 6, including Best Picture, Director, Actor and Adapted Screenplay.

it's a comedy but it may get you to think deeply.
in a sense, Gump is an idiot,he don't have a hign IQ.
Some like,before he met President Kennedy,he drinks
15bottles of Dr.Pepper,when he actually comes to meet
Kennedy and go to shake hands with him,he can only
blurt out,"i got to pee".The humour here derives from Gump's naive
ignorance of the social norms limiting what can be said in public about lower bodily functions, and we get a deep pleasure from watching another human being respond naturally to the needs of his body.
Besides, in this film we can also feel the love from Gump to his wife,
the friendship to his colonol.
At the end of the film, Gump have his little son to through the life because
his wife was dead.Then, the feather which fly to Gump at the start of the film ,fly away .
Maybe it's a special fortune feather for the "fool"guys.
