Run, Forrest! Run!
“Run, Forrest! Run!” Even if you’ve never seen the movie, you know this legendary line. (Oh, and if you haven’t seen it, you haven’t lived.) As you know, Gump spends a lot of time running in the film but Tom Hanks isn’t much of a runner in real life. His brother, Jim, is however. And seeing as how they’re brothers, they do look alike as well. Therefore the solution for the running scenes was simple – Jim replaced Tom whenever Forrest needed to be shown running long-distance.
Run, Forrest! Run!

Everyone does a lot of growing in Forrest Gump. Watching a kind, young Forrest grow up to become a good nature, responsible man is a true joy to watch in the film. While the viewers witness a lot of change, we might not see how much his “growth” changes too. The transitions Forrest goes through are subtle and you might just miss it. Remember the first scene of this transition? Forrest is wearing the same exact shirt, the blue one with the distinct plaid pattern.
