Forrest Gump
Directed by Robert Zemeckis, Forrest Gump is an American film adapted from Winston Groom’s novel, with Tom Hanks taking the leading role. At the 67th Academy Awards in 1995, the film took home six major awards.
The story follows Forrest Gump, a man born with a lower IQ but a warm, determined heart. Against all odds (困难), he achieves extraordinary success: becoming a football star, a war hero, and later a millionaire.
This film is full of warmth and kindness. It clearly tells us how important it is to stay positive in life—we should keep going even when things get hard. Its lively, easy-to-remember lines also make it more attractive and touching.
Forrest Gump is a highly inspirational masterpiece that leaves a lasting impression. I strongly recommend it to everyone.

Homework
A film is-or should be-more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. ---Stanley Kubrick
一部电影——或者说应当是一部电影——更应像音乐而非小说。它应当是情绪和感受的递进。
