1 Introduction
Forrest Gump is a definitive American movie. It's historical, patriotic and it's got a dunce as the hero. Forrest doesn't lose his innocence and purity throughout the movie, or maybe he just can't but either way. This shows you don't need to be evil or really intelligent to be recognized or successful. A good understanding of the movie lines can improve our linguistic competence and cultural competence. For that, the research in this field can be of great help in the study of the English and American culture.
2 The Summary of Forrest Gump
"Life is like a box of chocolates……you never know what you're gonna get." Gump's mother always told him. Like the movie itself, the line in Forrest Gump became a main clue and inspiration to millions of people worldwide.
From the beginning of this film, Gump was sitting on the long chair, talking about the process of growing up and his lifetime: how he became a football star in the university; how he was to be a hero in the war; how he had a chance to be a diplomat of ping-pang; how he became a shrimp tycoon; and how he won the White House honors etc. This movie also described the pure friendship among Gump and his friends, and finally he succeeded in gaining love from Jenny.
Gump has done none of these for his own benefit; he just tried to do his best with kindness and mind. He got it, and his success became an inspiration to all of us.
