Forrest Gump – Special Collector's Edition (Academy Award Winning Collection) (2 Disc Set)
Slow-witted Forrest Gump (Tom Hanks) has never thought of himself as disadvantaged, and thanks to his supportive mother (Sally Field), he leads anything but a restricted life. Whether dominating on the gridiron as a college football star, fighting in Vietnam or captaining a shrimp boat, Forrest inspires people with his childlike optimism. But one person Forrest cares about most may be the most difficult to save – his childhood love, the sweet but troubled Jenny (Robin Wright).

Critic Reviews:
- " It remains a bad movie that gets worse with age. " – Eric Kohn
- " Contrasting Forrest's unassuming innocence with the upheavals and rancor of the times, the film is a wisely goofy commentary on the stupidity of smartness. " – Duane Byrge
- " Forrest Gump, the new Tom Hanks movie directed by Robert Zemeckis, is a one-of-a-kind treat. " – Jay Carr
