Ideology
The themes in the movie Forrest Gump are believed by some to be the search for
destiny while understanding that simple is good . The movie features many ideas for
someone s destiny. For example, are we all just floating around on a breeze or we all
have a destiny in life that we need to figure out . The style of the movie is told by a man
telling his life story from his point of view.
The culture in this movie is based on life in the United States, a southern boy who
was put into school because his mom wanted him to go to a real boys school not a special
school for the handicapped. In the movie Forrest is of Southern Baptist religion which
tells his life style. Forrest Gump seems to be a stupid man by his appearance but as the
story unfolds you can tell that he is very bright and full of knowledge told in a simple
manner.
The importance of minor stars throughout the movie is when small characters play
big roles in the plot of the story. Jenny, his girl, is not seen in the movie for many scenes,
but she plays a major role in the plot of the story. It is the same with Bubba, Benjamin
Beauferd Blue, he was in the movie no longer than twenty minutes but ends up being a
major character. This movie has a lot of confusion built in but most understand it by the
end.

Story
They story in the movie Forrest Gump is told in first-person, with Forrest telling
his own life s events while waiting on a bench at a bus stop. Buses come and go while
Gump tells his story. The story is simple with a very easy to follow plot line. The narrator
in the movie is Forrest himself sitting on the bench telling his story to whomever is there
to listen to him. One thing that effects the story telling is the way that Forrest introduce
himself by asking if they want a piece of chocolates. This could have been better arranged
so that someone would come not in the middle of the story but during his pauses between
parts in his life story. The strategy used in the narration is a conversation with another
person rather than a narrator talking to an audience. The audience listens in to what the
narrator, Forrest Gump, is talking about to the other person. It is a very easy manner to
follow the film. There really is no relationship between the spectator and the movie besides
the fact that people are listening to his story as if the spectators were waiting for the bus
with him. The way the narration effects that relationship, in that the narrator addresses
ideas and topics making it seem that Gump is not only talking to the person on the bench,
but he is talking to the audience as well. Forrest Gump addresses his topics mixing
narratives up using both formalistic and realistic styles very smoothly. One example is
when talking about Bubba. After he died he used a formal voice and narration but in
simple, easy to understand language.
