A film that has divided critics but has touched entire generations with its tenderness and optimistic view of humanity.

Tom Hanks delivers the performance of a lifetime. "Forrest Gump" is at once a fable, a comedy, and a love story that works emotionally on every level. "Life is like a box of chocolates."
