To face destiny, this film has three kinds figure represent three attitudes. Forrest’s mother represent believer, Captain Dan represent suspicious men, Jenny represent rebel. DESTINY Maybe destiny is like that feather, which has no concrete direction ,and the ordinary experience tired us. However, any turning is controlled by themselves freely, there’s one thing you must do ─ do you best. Film Theme “I’m not a smart man, but I know what love is。” Love is film’s eternal theme .We give our tears and laughter generously. The love in this film is a process which a man with low IQ speaks out “love”.I think that Forrest doesn’t only say to Jenny, but also say to his mother and Buba. Because the love realized by Forrest includes many things, not only heart. The death of his mother and many times Jenny’s disappearance let Forrest know what love is .In fact, no matter whether Jenny love Forrest, Forrest gets love and we get love from this film. In the end, I think of a poem: LOVE Do not undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each of us is special. Do not give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying. It is a fragile thread that binds us to each other. Do not shut love out of your life by saying it is impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give love; The fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly. Do not dismiss your dreams. To be without dreams is to be without hope; To be without hope is to be without purpose. Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way. A love poem Film reviewFilm review In this film, I have to say, "Forrest Gump is a lucky dog". Because although all of his action are unconscious and lack of thinking opinion, every time he can get a good result— a football star, a war hero, a richer…why? Out of question, it’s hope, and that is one of many issues which this film want to tell us. Inside Forrest’s heart, hope is equal to running and the box of chocolate ─ you never know what you’ are gonna get. When the first time Jenny asked Forrest to run away and the first time Forrest freed himself from the bondage, hope had been growing up in his mind. And later, the death of his mother and the Jenny’s disappearance once again disappointed him. For searching his hope back, he began to run and the running lasted three years. At this moment, I think, he has already taken running for his hope. Like his words, "I just felt like running". And what is the Jenny’s hope? In fact, the beginning of the film has already told us—she prayed that she can turn to a bird, flying higher and higher. But at last ,she lost herself. I think this is a clever point in the film,— the hopes are good for our life or bad for our life. The answer to this question I still look for… What do you think of it?What do you think of it?
