Forrest Gump, for historical background? Now that just strikes me as funny! Yes, many historical events took place during the movie, but I hated the way Forrest was tied into each of them. I thought that was a little too cheesy.
I don't know, it has been a few years since I've seen it, but I just remember at the time being very impressed with all of the history that it covered, even if he did keep popping up. I thought it was a nice twist. But I'm a big Tom Hanks fan anyway, so that may have something to do with it. I do see how you could say it was a little cheesy. I guess I'm just one of those people who enjoys a little chessiness from time to time.
