Chapter 710 Forrest Gump (2)

Here is the first small climax of the movie, which is faster and more touching than everyone thinks.

Contrary to what any audience may think, the film is bittersweet at the beginning.

Forrest Gump's childhood was not considered lucky. He had intellectual disabilities and leg disabilities since he was a child, and he also suffered from school bullying.

But he was actually lucky. He had a mother who loved him more than anything, and he also met Jenny, who was as beautiful as an angel.

However, these originally warm elements were shattered one after another.

Forrest Gump's mother exchanged her body with the school teacher for her son to go to school.

As for Jenny, there are hints between the lines that she was raped by her own father.

These shocking and distressing plots are a true portrayal of the corruption of American society at that time, and can be seen in various news.

And, even now, these problems still exist.

However, the existence of these tragedies also makes those tender scenes even more precious.

Sadness and joy are not clearly divided in the movie, but are interdependent.

And this is what touches the audience.

Because it's real.

Unknowingly, the expressions of the audience have gradually changed from the sad or indifferent expression at the beginning.

Their hearts were all affected by A-Gump's next fate, and they were curious about what his future life would be like.

When the scene of the movie changes, Forrest Gump and Jenny have grown up and reached the middle school age.

Of the two children, one is so graceful and graceful that it is shockingly beautiful.

The other one, although he does look a little silly, is also tall and healthy, and his appearance is ridiculously handsome.

It is indeed the American dream.

Many female viewers' eyes were filled with little stars after seeing Forrest Gump played by Leon appear on the stage.

After reaching middle school, Forrest Gump's intelligence was still a bit lower than ordinary people, and he was bullied from time to time.

In the past, those school bullies rode bicycles, but gradually they found that they could no longer catch up with Forrest Gump, who was running faster and faster, so they switched to cars.

While running to avoid bullying, Forrest accidentally broke into a school football game.

His rapid speed immediately made the school football coach discover his talent and let him join the team.

With a head that only knew how to run, Forrest Gump ran into college and into the finals of the college football league.

It's still "Forrest Gump, run!" This sentence ran through Forrest Gump's entire boyhood, making him a hero in the finals.

He was holding the football and running all the way, no matter how much his opponents chased him, he could not touch it.

In the end, Forrest Gump won the victory with the ball in his arms, but he did not stop, but ran out of the playing field and rushed into the safety channel.

Everyone was cheering for him, and his coach laughed even more: "Although this kid doesn't have a good brain, he runs really damn fast."

The coach's language is very rude, and the son of bitchi frequency is very high, but what he says makes people laugh, typical American humor.

Because of this victory, Forrest Gump and his teammates accepted an interview with President Kennedy.

This incident really happened, and there is a video tape of the scene. Except for the synthesized Forrest Gump, everyone else is himself.

When Kennedy was communicating with Forrest Gump, Luo Quan used computer special effects technology to change his mouth shape, creating a real sense of history.

This is actually not the first time in a movie that the protagonist has personally experienced history.

At the beginning of the movie, Forrest Gump met a tenant who liked to play guitar.

When the tenants played, Forrest Gump would dance along with the music.

At that time, Forrest Gump's feet were still tied with equipment to help him stand, so the dance steps seemed to twist left and right, which was very strange.

The tenant moved out soon after, and when A-Gump saw him again, it was on TV.

The lodger has become somewhat famous and looks fashionable dancing the strange dance steps he learned from him.

At this time, everyone also recognized the identity of this tenant. He was the legendary American singer and king of dance music in the last century.

At that time, the audience laughed heartily when they saw this, thinking that this was a joke played by the director on everyone.

However, combined with this meeting with the president, everyone understood. It seems that the director not only wanted to make Forrest a witness to history, but also wanted him to be a creator of history.

Sure enough, Forrest Gump was involved in all the major events that happened in the United States.

The war broke out and Forrest Gump enlisted in the army.

Before leaving, Jenny told him to save his life if anything happened, and to run away if he couldn't be beaten.

Forrest Gump kept these words in mind.

After arriving at the military camp, A-Gump met his best friend Babu and Lieutenant Dan, who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

This part is the scene with the most music in the entire movie. A song will appear in every plot with a memory point.

For example, when the recruits were reporting, the background music that appeared sang: "The children of rich politicians use silver spoons, while the children of poor people go to the battlefield and become cannon fodder."

This kind of lyrics is no longer innuendo, it is outright satire.

This war was unjust from the beginning. It was not just unjust to the invaded country, but also unjust to its own citizens.

The rich live in a dream and live in the rear, while the poor become a tool for them to pursue their interests.

This kind of bitter irony also made the audience sweat.

Although so far, no private goods have appeared in the movie, and they are all narrated from an objective perspective.

But it is also a miracle that this kind of "disharmonious" content can pass the review.

The audience frowned, but soon relaxed.

The movie continues, and the scene again shows Forrest Gump writing a letter to Jenny.

The background music also changes, sounding psychedelic yet melodious and catchy.

This is the famous song "California Dreaming", but it doesn't exist in this world.

In the transition of this classic music, the war finally broke out.

Forrest Gump's unit encountered an enemy ambush. There were enemies in front and in the sky. The comrades around him fell one by one like wheat being cut by a wheat harvester.

When he heard the order to retreat, A-Gump remembered what Jenny had said to him, and immediately turned around and ran away, running out of the battlefield in a short while.

But then he remembered that his good friend Babu was still inside, so he immediately turned around and rushed back.

Seeing those comrades on the ground, the upright A-Gump carried them out one by one.

But when he found Babu, he was already dying. This incident made A-Gump experience the sadness of losing an important person for the first time.

This was more intense than the pain caused by being shot in his butt.

But a blessing in disguise, Forrest Gump was shot and retired from the battlefield.

At the same time, he became a hero after the war because he saved his comrades, and was received by the president.

By this time, the president had changed, but the same thing was that Forrest Gump still made a fool of himself on live television.

In order to show his wounds to the president, Forrest Gump took off his pants and exposed his butt, which caused laughter both inside and outside the show.

After meeting with the president, Forrest Gump came out and met a large number of anti-war marchers. They invited Forrest Gump to give a speech.

A-Gump didn't understand their content, but after going up, he told everything about Jenny and confessed his love to her.

No one could have imagined that Jenny was actually among the crowd.

In order to let Forrest Gump see herself, Jenny jumped into the empty pool and ran towards him.

Forrest Gump's eyes showed excitement, and he rushed off the podium at a speed faster than a football match, jumped into the pool, and embraced Jenny in the pool.

The surrounding protesters were cheering and applauding the couple.

In the theater, the audience was already in tears. They were all moved by this difficult couple and were glad that they were able to achieve success.

However, this is actually just an illusion.

After A-Gump and Jenny hugged in front of everyone, they just had a night of fun, and then there was no further progress.

Jenny still lives a casual and dissolute life. The boyfriend she has found is a bad guy who only knows how to do domestic violence. The job she has found is a music performance similar to that of a stripper, and she will be touched by others on stage.

When Forrest Gump saw it, he would beat those who bullied Jenny every time.

But all he got in the end was Jenny's blame for doing bad things with good intentions.

However, in the following period, the emotional entanglement between Forrest Gump and Jenny did not become the main line.

The main line of the movie is still the historical moments experienced or created from Forrest Gump's perspective.

For example, after becoming a hero, Forrest Gump fell in love with table tennis and went to China to conduct table tennis diplomacy, witnessing an important moment when relations between the two major countries were warming up.

Another example is the Watergate incident, which Forrest Gump exposed through the window in the middle of the night, which led to the resignation of the president and he was forced to leave officialdom.

After retiring from the army, Forrest Gump thought of his friend Babu's dream, so he spent most of his money to buy a shrimp boat and named it the Jenny.

Soon, he met Lieutenant Dan again.

Lieutenant Dan lost his legs during the war and is now living on the streets in a miserable condition.

He blames A-Gump for not letting him die on the battlefield, why should he save him.

But A-Gump did not give up on Lieutenant Dan because of his scolding, but let him get on the ship and work together towards the future.

Probably, God sometimes favors fools.

During a storm, other shrimp fishing boats took shelter in the port, but two rookies, Forrest Gump and Lieutenant Dan, broke into the storm to catch a fortune.

It turned out to be self-defeating. All the ships parked in the port were destroyed by the storm. However, the two rookies managed to survive and even appeared on TV because they were the only survivors in the port.

Because all the fishing boats were destroyed, Forrest Gump's Jenny finally started to have a good harvest. After all, their boat was the only one in the entire water area that could operate, so it was hard to imagine not having a good harvest.

The days are getting better day by day.

On a seaside near dusk, Lieutenant Dan talked to Forrest Gump, lamenting the impermanence of fate and expressing his gratitude to Forrest Gump.

Those words sounded like he was saying goodbye to Forrest Gump.

At this moment, the audience's hearts were clenched together, thinking that the director was about to start torturing him again.

Suddenly, Lieutenant Dan jumped into the sea. People's hearts trembled, thinking that he wanted to commit suicide.

Fortunately, it was just a false alarm.

A-Gump rushed forward and saw Lieutenant Dan lying on his back in the sea with a smile on his face.

Although he has no legs, he can still swim very easily.

The setting sun shines on the sea, and the sparkling golden light changes shape with the rise and fall of the waves.

The day is coming to an end, but Lieutenant Dan's life has just begun.

He had come to terms with himself, and there was no difficulty that he could not overcome.

People are actually very powerful and will not be defeated by anything except themselves.

As long as you are strong enough.

Seeing this, many viewers fell into deep thought.

This was probably the place that touched them the most.

The transformation of Lieutenant Dan, the change of luck, the battle between reality and will.

They understood what the director wanted to say, and considering the current social situation, it was perfect to use it to encourage everyone.

And soon, this fairy tale-like plot made everyone laugh again.

Lieutenant Dan invested in a fruit company in his name in order to help Forrest Gump make a large sum of money.

A-Gump opened the contract and found a bitten apple on it.

Who else could it be if it weren’t for the later famous Apple?

With this investment, A-Gump became a rich man of course.

Soon, Jenny also came to the door.

At this time, everyone felt that now that Forrest Gump was famous and so rich, it was time for Jenny to stay, right?

But after another night of fun, Jenny chose to leave.

Before it was because of willfulness and dissoluteness, but this time it was because of low self-esteem.

Jenny feels that she is really not worthy of Forrest Gump now.

But Forrest Gump, who has lost his mother, has regarded Jenny as his only relative.

After she left without saying goodbye, she started searching in the town.

Every day he would go out, running and looking for Jenny.

Gradually, the scope expanded from the small town to the entire state and even the country.

More and more people saw Forrest Gump running and joined in.

The media also rushed to report and asked why he did not go home and run outside for so many years.

Everyone thinks that Forrest Gump must be doing something.

At first, Forrest Gump was indeed looking for Jenny, but now, he has no other ideas.

Running has been throughout his life. If he wants to find meaning for the rest of his life, running is probably the only thing left.

In other words, he is not doing it for anyone or anything.

At this point, the movie is nearing its end.

The story that follows is both unexpected and unexpected.

Forrest Gump and Jenny met again, and Jenny finally got out of the shadow of childhood, had a serious job, and raised Forrest Gump's children.

Witnessed by their relatives and friends, the two finally became husband and wife.

However, the good times did not last long. Jenny contracted a disease due to her former promiscuity and died soon after.

But Forrest Gump's son is very healthy. Not only is he smart, but like Forrest Gump, he can also run very fast.

The story ends here.

The movie ended, but the audience sat in the theater and didn't move for a long time.
