阿甘正传英文影评

My favorite movie is Mr. A Gan,which I have being moved and inspired by the male leading character—Forrest Gump.

At the beginning of the movie, following the beautiful music , there is a beautiful feather dancing with the breeze. Finally lighting at the foot of Forrest Gump. The man who sits on the bentch and tells his life experience to the strangers .

Forrest Gump is unfortunately to be born with a low IQ and musele problem. Generally speaking by most people, this kind of person couldn’t be successful in doing anything. However ,he comes very successful through his struggling. What he narrates reflect the social changes. Many important events and people of American from the 1950s to the 1970s are shown fluently in his description of his life experience. So the film was passed to a intellectual disturbance person the description of life has reflected every aspect of U.S.A.’s life, important incident of social political life make and represent to these decades such as U.S.A. from one unique angle. Film adapt Winston novel of the same name of Groom since.

His mother had been playing a very important role in his life. when he sat on the bench on the side of the road, talking with the strangers, he would often start his theory with “ my mother said……”

My mother said “Life is like a box of chocolates, Forrest, you never know what you are going to get.”

My mother said” Don’t you be afraid sweet heart. Death is just a part of life. Something we are destined to do”

Gump’s mother is a clever woman. She can earn enough money to support her one parent family. She I is also optimistic. She never feels ashamed of her son. She is proud of her son. She never thinks Forrest is a fool. She wants her son can lead a life as an ordinary person. In order to let him study into school, she has sex with the headmaster. She is also intelligent. Every night she reads some books for Forrest and tells some simple truths to him. Gump was an extra docile child and he had kept all his mother words. He said apple head had his own ways of dealing with all kinds of things in life. Gump actually didn’t have much ambition and he also lost many valuable things. But he didn’t abandon himself to desperation. His love eternally continued. He already had a small Gump after all. So although he was not smart, he knew how to keep life hopeful and dynamic.

when we say that Forrest Gump is a lucky guy. I think most of you may think that he is so lucky to escape much trouble , but the “luck” is that he is so lucky to have such a good mother by my means. Gump has his own perseverance, keeping on running without of any reason, JUST RUNS. He said: “Man has look forward, and never encumbered by foretime. I thank that's the meaning of my running.” Say goodbye to foretime and don't stay in-place. Although so many people in the world are used to follow others and few people can stick to one thing, Gump does and becomes “GOD”。 There is another character Captain Dan. Dan lost his legs in Vietnarm War. He said that his fate is death in war. However, Forrest Gump saved him and let him be alive. After losing legs, Dan was decadent and disgusted with life, complaining that Gump shouldn’t save him. When he adjusted his mind, living on fishing with Gump , he started to enjoy the wonderful life and thank Gump’s help. The movie is intended to tell people that life is wonderful by this character. Rainbow is always after cloud. The key point is that whether we have a good mind and an opportunity to ourselves to change bad situation. The movie is also sent such a message to us: do well what we should do, and life will return us well. There will be a miracle if only there is perseverance.

There are full of philosophy in the movie. Many lines in this movie are classical. For example, life is a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re gonna get. In addition, the sentence that death is just a part of life, something we’re all destined to do is also of wisdom. They make us think of life profoundly.

On every stage of life, Gump had merely one target as his guidance of that temporary period. But he would strive persistently to accomplish it. I thought that must be his charm of personality.

However, most of the time, we just couldn’t be able to find the reason for what we had did or what we are doing now. And what seemed regretful was that we just resigned ourselves to giving up half the way. Life is that way. you don’t have to calculate the amount of your acquisition but just do it to the best of your ability. Then you will fly higher and higher. I believe firmly the higher you fly, the less far you will be away from the paradise in your heart. Thus, do not complain that you do not have something. Just like yourself and make your advantages better and better. So I think his success is by his sheer hard struggle instead of luck.

Last but not least, the pictures and the music in this film are rather beautiful. It begins with the beautiful scene: A white feather dances in the wind with the music gradually from soft to strong. In the sky, the feather is shinning brightly. At the end of this film, the feather appears with the wonderful music again. It creates a pure and peaceful world to us. In my view, life is just like a feather, which can be changeable with the breeze in the sky. We cannot control the breeze. What we can do is to adjust to the environment. We should take advantage of our advantages. And try our best to make us dancing more beautiful in the blue sky. Our IQ is higher than Forrest Gump, so we have ability to live better than Forrest. Just seek for a better life through work hard.

On the whole, this movie is special, inspiring, educational, philosophic and moving. I enjoy it every much. It is worthy of our appreciation for many times.
