Warum gerade diese Szene?
Forrest Gump zählt schon seit Jahren zu meinen absoluten Lieblingsfilmen. Immer wenn er mal wieder im Fernsehen läuft schaue ich ihn mir erneut an. Diese Szene in der Allee bleibt wohl jedem im Gedächnis der den Film gesehen hat. Neben der hier gezeigten Szene gibt es noch eine sehr Ähnliche, welche 10 Jahre zuvor spielt und Forrest als kleinen Jungen zeigt.Auschnitt aus dem Drehbuch
