From: Remi Category: Films Date: 30 January 2008 Time: 06:23 PM Review: This made an excellent accompaniment to ironing my shirts; I managed to get through ten of them. Still found the film very enjoyable. Not quite sure what's it about and what it's trying to say. I know you'll answer it's not about anything, but why this re-writing of history from the sidelines? A great soundtrack, which was very self-consciously of the era, especially in the Vietnam sequence. Thought that Bubba dying was genuinely moving, and Mrs. Gump but Jenny less so, yet she garnered much more air time.
