生活就像一盒巧克力,你永远不知道下一个是什么——《阿甘正传》
看完这部电影 ,也许有的人只会惊叹:“啊,阿甘的运气实在是太好了!”但是你不得不承认,其实许多偶然的事也蕴含着必然的因素。生活不会因为你的处心积虑而让你更加接近成功,但它会在你不经意的时候可你的努力以适当的褒赏。他忠诚——阿甘在战争中冒着危险奋不顾身寻找朋友,所以他收获了友谊;他守信——阿甘在旁人不可理喻的眼神中为战友履行了诺言,所以他收获了财富;他执着——阿甘在三年中跑遍全国,有脚步丈量人生,所以他收获了掌声。尽管阿甘的智商只有75,但在我们他身上看到了忠诚、守信、执着,看到了对生命的希望、对信念的坚定、不平凡的人生。我相信这也是这部影片如此受欢迎的原因。
很多时候我们就像阿甘一样找不到做一件事的理由,但是很多时候我们都远不及阿甘,那些我们不知为何而做的事情总是非常轻易地半途而废。人的一生往往就像片头和片尾中那片随风飘浮的白色羽毛,我们也许大多数时候都在随波逐流,这种飘浮没有具体的方向,平淡到令人厌倦。可是,一个腾挪一个转身,总还是可以由自己控制的,你只须尽力将它做得完满,而不要计较你究竟得到了多少,那么,你就可以越飞越高,你会发现,越往高处的地方,越接近天堂。
当我们年华老去,回首来路,如果你可以对过去的一切无悔,那么你已经拥有了非常成功的一生。
Life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what the next -- 《Forrest Gump》
After watching this movie, some people may exclaim: "Oh, Gump's luck is really so good!" but you have to admit that many accidental things also contain the necessary factors in fact. Life will not let you closer to success because you plan deliberately, but it will give you the reward for your effort when you are casual.
He is staunch -- Gump forgot about his own life to help his friend in danger in the war, so he gained the friendship;
He is honest -- Gump kept his promise to the dead comrade in spite of others' discouragement, so he gained the fortune;
He is clinging-- Gump ran around the country in three years, measured the life with his steps, so he gained the applause.
Although Gump's IQ is only 75, but when we can see not only his loyalty, trustworthy and dedication, but also the firm belief, the hope of life and a not ordinary life. I believe this is also the reason why this film is so popular.
Although many times we are like Gump that we all could
not find the reasons to do one thing, yet many times we are far less than Gump. Because when we do the things without reasons, we give up halfway easily. In fact, our lives are just like the floating white feather which appeared at the beginning and the end of the film, we may be drifting at the most of time. This kind of floating doesn't have specific direction, and is prosaic and boring. However, we can always control ourselves via a slightly turn around. You only need to try your best to do it, but not care what you get. And then, you can fly higher and higher. Eventually, you will find that the place is higher; the place is closer to the heaven.
When we grow elder and look back to the past, if we have not regret to the previous things, and you already have a successful life

—Forest Gump
Preface:
Gump was shaped into the embodiment of virtue in the film. Although Gump’s IQ is a little lower than normal levels. He was honest, trustworthy, serious, and bold and places a very high value on feelings. He only knows how to pay without asking for anything, and never mind others refuse him. He was just open-minded, magnanimous in the face of life. He focuses all of his wisdom, faith and courage on one point, just run and run. Nothing is important to him but run. He kept running on the road on instinct. He ran over the classmates’ discrimination in childhood, ran the university's football field, running through the fire swirling in the quagmire of the Vietnam War, ran ping-pong diplomacy over, the entire United States, and eventually went to his end.

1. The Introduction of Forrest Gump
2
"Forrest Gump ", the masterpiece of American Anti-intellectual film, fills of the sprit of conservatism of Hollywood, shows the convention between history and personal. It looks through the political and social history of the United States by ordinary people’s experience.
Access to 67th session of the Oscar for best picture, best actor, good director, and other six awards and the 16th session of the Golden Rooster Award for Best dubbed Award.
In the sky, a feather fly in the wind, drifting across treetops, fly toward blue sky. And last, the feather falls on the feet of Forrest Gump. Gump sited on a bench in Alabama, talking about all his life.
Forrest Gump was born in Alabama, where is in South America, an isolated small town Shortly after World War II. He was born with mental retardation, with the IQ only in 75. However, Gump’s mother has a strong character and she hopes Gump lives as same as others. She always encourages Gump, tells Gump〝You are no different than anybody else is.〞Furthermore, Gump became friends with Jenny, and he can run, run very fast. Once in middle school, in order to avoid his classmates in pursuit, Gump ran into a school football field, because of his running fast, he was admitted into the university. And later he became a rugby star and met with President John F. Kennedy.
After graduation, encouraged by a recruit, Gump candidates took part in the Vietnam War. In a battle, his unit had been ambushed, when 3
ordered to retreat, Gump remembered Jennifer's orders, and he broke into a run. Moreover, Gump saved many of his comrades. But Bubba, the best friend of Gump’s who was enthusiastic about shrimp was died. And Lieutenant Taylor lost his legs.
After the war, Gump has been an audience with President Johnson's. At a peace rally, Gump met Jenny again, however, Jenny has fallen, lived a life of debauchery. Gump loves Jenny all along, yet Jenny has been not to accept him, they parted hastily rushed encounter.
As a ping-pong diplomacy envoy, Gump also went to China took part in table tennis, campaign for Sino-US relations. Under the guidance of the doctrine "say we should do", Forrest Gump finally found his own sky. He taught, "Elvis," Elvis Pulaisili study dance. He helped John Lennon writing songs. In the Civil Rights Movement, he collapsed in a hair-trigger large-scale ethnic conflict. He even inadvertently forced the thief sneaked into the Watergate building into the net of justice.
And moreover, Gump also made a fortune in strange combination of circumstances to become a billionaire. Because didn’t want be tired by fame or fortune, Gump became a gardener. Gump always missed Jenny; however Jenny had been led astray and caught in despair. Finally one day, Jenny came back, she lived with Gump for a period of time. And one evening, Jenny throws herself into the lap of Gump, and to leave quietly at the next day’s dawn. Years later, Gump met Jenny again, and a little 4
boy who was Gump’s son. This time, Jennifer has got a kind of incurable disease. The three of they got back to their hometown, spent a happy time.
Janet passed away, and their son got to school age. One day, Gump sent his son to the school bus, at this time, a feather fall off from Gump’s son’s book, and fly away in the wind. Jenny is a symbol of degradation; she contracted almost all of the bad habits, such as drug addiction, sexual liberation and so on. Finally, she died of a virus - in fact imply that the HIV virus. But Forrest Gump does not count everything, always in love with her, reflects his innocence and goodness.
? 2.The image of Forrest Gump
Forrest Gump as a soldier, with his seemingly simple, but in reality is more simple-minded and special talents, as well as physical powerful weapons, again and again to win the survival and development. This is a good God reward the hopes and at the same time, it includes a keynote: forward, to run. It is said that this run will bring hope to people. In fact, there is indeed hope that this unique film has won so many viewers, and even attracted only light-hearted entertainment like film audience, it shows their hope and the hope that the Kui Li.
Forrest Gump image subverts the normal world, the image of a hero, with the traditional concept, with a strong anti-traditional, anti-mainstream. Forrest Gump experience many "wise men" to be 5
outshone, I think the director is like Forrest Gump through Image irony to the community, reflect the social status quo, such as the alienation of the people, and so on fallen to expose people to take this to the community and People fate of the future. Interestingly, behind Forrest Gump of the total followed by a group of persons who can not find the answer to life, blindly following the Forrest Gump, can be said that this is the American society at that time a reality, the reality of people's disappointment, can not survive The power and significance, and can only hope lies in the fate of the others. The Forrest Gump has always optimistic to face the reality and courageously continue to run, it can not be said to be the perfect irony.
In recent years, such a rare Hollywood film in a distinct character, Forrest Gump was no doubt go down in history in the United States, Forrest Gump is born in the 1950s and 1960s post-war generation incarnation of the group, in their experience, 3K Party , Rock, the Vietnam War, Kennedy, Nixon appeared on the stage one after another, and so on, peace in the chaos of their growth, moral reconstruction, the personality of the publicity, so that their life is full of variables, they appear to be a lack of temper, was hobbled People worried, but they are after all grown up, and they came running up the pace of the father's expectations.
In the novel "Forrest Gump", at the end of it reads: "But I tell you, 6
friends: Sometimes at night, I look up to the stars, then see the whole sky on the laid there, I do not think I remember nothing. I still have a dream, like everyone else, I would occasionally think of another situation in life, like son. And then, blink of an eye, I have forty, fifty, sixty-year-old, you understand, right? "
I believe that even here, everyone's inner sense of fear that will not be reduced, but at the same time we also felt a sense of detachment, as we look to the stars, is a natural harmony and great strength, although Or did not answer a number of issues, but has become less important. Time is always ruthlessly circulation, it urged us not to let too much time thinking and loading.
3.Love in Forrest Gump
Though with such impairment, Gump, as I see, is actually the smartest man in the world. He knows what love really means and how to love others. Gump moreover is a lucky man, and he is destined to be the son of Mrs. Gump, the friend of Lt. Dan Taylor and Benjamin Buford, and the lover of Jenny Curran. I am especially fascinated by the emotion naturally outpouring through the movie.
“Don’t ever let anybody tell you they are better than you.” It is Mrs. Gump who teaches Gump how to walk, and how to be a real man. She loves her boy with all her heart, thus tries her best to provide Gump with 7
an environment as the other boys. She encourages her son to taste the chocolates in the box, to make his own destiny, and finally to be the unique person with what God all give him. Gump consistently follows her instructions to guide his behavior. Her tough, confidence and love help to form Gump’s sound mind. Faced with various challenges, he pulls himself through them. With a simple mind, he just handles things, as they come.
“Run, Forrest!” It is Jenny who teaches Gump how to run and how to love. When Gump is teased by other naughty boys, she just tells him to run away. As a result, his leg braces amazingly break off. And his excellent running ability gets him a football scholarship at the University of Alabama and plays a vital role in his later success. While, Jenny lives different life compared to Gump. The abuse by her father leaves a shadow throughout her life. Therefore, she prays to become a bird and fly away to find herself. The reason underlying Jenny leaves Gump again and again is that she thinks she is unworthy of Gump’s love. Finally, after experiencing various degenerations, she comes back to Gump as she realizes that only Gump can provide a refuge and take good care of her. Moreover, reflections on life have turned her into a mature and responsible woman. She wants to settle down and be the girl of Gump. A lot of people interpret Jenny as the symbol of depravity. However, I appreciate her braveness and frankness, with which she tries to realize her 8
dream even it means she has to suffer a great deal. “I miss you, Jenny. If there's anything you need, I won't be far away.” I think only Jenny can always be loved by Gump.
In the Vietnam War, I am deeply impressed by the love between Gump and Bubba and Lt. Dan. Bubba is the best good friend of Gump. He is always talking about the shrimp, and a shrimp boat captain is what he wants to be after the war. But he can never realize his dream. The scene when Bubba covers his wound, comforting Gump “I am ok. I’ll be all right” is impressive. It is the reflection of the deepest friendship between the two. And Gump treasures the love in his heart. As a man of his word, he later founded the shrimp corporation named by Bubba and Gump as a way to complete Bubba’s dream. Lt. Dan is a man who thinks he is destined to die honorably in battle. But Gump “cheated” him which causes him to live as a cripple. He once lived aimlessly and wantonly. It is Gump’s simple, kind, and sincere love that rebuilds his confidence and hope in life. Therefore, he again becomes a dignified and successful man.
Gump always says that “stupid is as stupid does”, which means that a person is stupid as the things he do. While, in terms of Gump, he is very smart because what he does is always a right thing at a right time in a right place. He interprets love in his own simple perspective. For those 9
who have obliged to him, he tries his best to help them and be kind to them. Therefore, he possesses a great deal of spiritual wealth. In our daily life, we are not separated from others as a single unit because it is necessary for us to communicate with others. Numerous people view love as the most precious thing in the world. Therefore, we should be kind to the people around us and show our concern about them, as a result, they can feel loved and needed and better pursuit their ideal life.
4.The American ideas and values reflected by Forrest Gump
The film was passed to a intellectual disturbance person the description of life has reflected every aspect of U.S.A.'s life, important incident of social political life make and represent to these decades such as U.S.A. from one unique angle. It is obvious that this film has reflected the American dream and optimism. The American dream is the myth of the last century, and is the goal for a better life of many European people coming to the United States. The United States is scarcely populated, and everywhere of it is full of blasting rich opportunity.
Nowadays, there is still the American dream, and a large amount of Asian and Latin American people regard the United States as the cradle of dreams. But exactly what is the American dream? Although there are some changes, the theme has never changed: Or become rich, or to
become a sports hero, or to become a famous actor, or have a tour of the 10
White House and get the opportunity to meet with the President of the United States, or through the work hard to become a multinational
company directors. Thus how to realize the dream? What do People need to do? Should people become the world's fastest man, or should they have the highest IQ? Who can answer these questions? After seeing the film, I believe that you will have an answer. Forrest Gump who is unfortunately to be born with a lower IQ and the muscle problem, usually, people always think this kind of person can't be successful in doing anything. But, instead, this unlucky man has achieved lots of incredible success; he is a football star, a war hero, and later a millionaire.His life is a very good example, and he has told people in the United States that anyone can
succeed, even if your IQ is extremely low. The United States is a "future orientation" country on which American optimistic upward, positive values are based.
However, in the 60s, the young people choose a kind of disillusioned road to escape from reality, to pursue pleasure, to negate rationality and to emphasize the instinct. The liberation of sex, the fiction of tourism
brought by drugs and the stray and social life which is away from the real social is their choice of way of life. This is also the way of life which Jenny and her “hippies” companion have chosen in the film. Compared with them Forrest Gump with a low IQ is completely different. Maybe his IQ cause him not to understand the things which Jenny and the times of 11
the youth are doing, but he has been permeated with a kind of American peculiar optimistic upward and positive enterprising. Even like that, the Forrest Gump’s IQ is extremely low; on the other hand, he is cleverer than others. He visited a special hospital for veterans, with his superb
table tennis skills to delight in them. At the same time, it was reported on TV about the news of Armstrong landing on the moon successfully. But no one watched at the century of the human world, instead they were attracted deeply by the exquisite skills of this moron. At that time, science was boring but sport was greater. Forrest Gump believes that a fool do stupid things and stupid is as stupid does. This is just the annotation to the successful life of Forrest Gump by the film director. He does not believe that he is a fool, and he can do whatever he wants to do. This is actually the key to do great work and meet with success in the United States. No matter you are white or black, clever or stupid, you just have to be the best, and then a success. Forrest Gump has taught people the key to success: you decide you are doing as a wise man or a fool! The American people are always thinking about the future goals, they said: "we want to put humans to the moon." They did it. Their country is established in a narrow land by the thirteen colonies, and now the United States is one of the world's largest nations. The American dream is true. The Cuban people coming to the United States become a baseball star, and every day thousands of Mexican crossed the border looking for work 12
and looking for a better life. As long as you make a decision, and have your own goal, everything can be achieved.
5. Classical Lines from Forrest Gump Forrest: And you wouldn't believe it if I told you that I can run like the wind blows ! That day on, if I was going somewhere, I was running.

Forrest: Mama says, "Stupid is as stupid does”
