[[title:=Forrest Gump]] is a [[production_year:=1994]] [[produced_in_country::countries:USA|American]] epic [[genre::genres:comedy]]-[[genre::genres:drama]] [[genre::genres:romance]] film based on the 1986 novel of the same name by Winston Groom. The film was written by [[screenplay::persons:eric_roth|Eric Roth]] and directed by [[directed_by::persons:robert_zemeckis|Robert Zemeckis]], starring [[main_role::person:tom_hanks|Tom Hanks]] as [[main_character::characters:forrest_gump|Forrest Gump]], Robin Wright, Gary Sinise, [[supporting_role::persons:rebecca_williams|Rebecca Williams]] as [[supporting_character::characters:nurse_at_park_bench|Nurse at Park Bench]], and [[supporting_role::persons:sally_field|Sally Field]] as [[supporting_character::characters:mrs_Gump|Mrs. Gump]]. The story depicts several decades in the life of Forrest Gump, a naïve and slow-witted yet athletically prodigious native of Alabama who witnesses, and in some cases influences, some of the defining events of the latter half of the 20th century; more specifically, the period between Forrest's birth in 1945 to 1982.

The film differs substantially from Winston Groom's novel on which it is based, including Gump's personality and several events that were depicted. Filming took place in late 1993, mainly in Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Extensive visual effects were used to incorporate the protagonist into archived footage and to develop other scenes. A comprehensive soundtrack was featured in the film, using music intended to pinpoint specific time periods portrayed on screen. Its commercial release made it a top-selling soundtrack, selling over 8 million copies worldwide.
