"Bein' a idiot is no box of chocolates," but "at least I ain't led no hum-drum life," says Forrest Gump, the lovable, surprisingly savvy hero of this wonderful comic tale.
When the University of Alabama's football team drafts Forrest and makes him a star, that's only the beginning! He flunks out—and goes on to be a Vietnam war hero, a world-class Ping-Pong player, a wrestler, and a business tycoon. He compares battle scars with Lyndon Johnson, discovers the truth about Richard Nixon, and suffers the ups and downs of true love. Now, Forrest Gump's telling all—in a madcap, screwball romp through three decades of the American landscape.
It's Gump's amazing travels...and you've got to hear them to believe them.
