Forrest Gump

“Hello, my name is Gump. Forrest Gump.”

“Life is like a box of chocolates – you never know what you’re gonna get.”
“Run, Forrest, RUN!!”

You’ve probably heard at least two of the quotes above in the last year. That’s because Forest Gump is one of the iconic movies of all time. Starring Tom Hanks, our favorite cast away, airport terminal bum, and Apollo 13 astronaut, Forrest Gump tells the epic story of a unique boy from the south – some call him slow (indeed his IQ is about 5 points below the state’s definition of “normal”) but he is such a sincere and naturally happy guy that it never bothers him. All he cares about is his best friend Jenny.

 As he goes throughout life, Forrest unknowingly alters historical events like the Vietnam War, the Watergate scandal, and the Civil Rights Movement, but all the while his mind is only on Jenny. So if you’re a romance kinda guy (assuming all girls already are J ), then you’ll love this one. If you’re a comedy kinda gal (assuming all guys think that they are J ), then you’ll love this one. It’s also got some sweet action and drama too. If you’re a history person or like movies that have a good social message, then you won’t be disappointed. And if you like shrimp, then you’ll definitely love this one.

 So come on over to Apartment 62 at 7:00 on Saturday night. Bring some popcorn or treats if you’d like! The real entertainment will be the company (us) and the film! Our version of Forrest Gump is EDITED as well, which makes this amazing story of all the better. We’ll see you there!

Gotta get me a haircut like that.
