From a bus-stop bench, a pure-hearted, simple-minded man named Forrest Gump recounts his astonishing life to anyone who will listen. Without ever intending to, he crosses paths with some of the episodes that shaped recent American history: the Vietnam War, ping-pong diplomacy, the civil rights movement, and even the jogging craze.

Robert Zemeckis directs a tender, melancholy fable about innocence, chance, and perseverance, with an endearing Tom Hanks in the role of his life.
