'Gump:' Too much ado about <strong>to</strong>o little<br />
By Jol\n Miskelly<br />
Special Wnter<br />
"F<strong>or</strong>rest Gump" IS a film<br />
that can be compared <strong>to</strong> wmning<br />
a two-mmute shoppmg<br />
spree m the st<strong>or</strong>e of your<br />
choice; you get a little bit of<br />
everything<br />
Unf<strong>or</strong>tunately, that make,;<br />
the film difficult <strong>to</strong> hke J<br />
many layers of hist<strong>or</strong>y need <strong>to</strong><br />
be peeled away m <strong>or</strong>der <strong>to</strong> see<br />
the heart of the film<br />
"F<strong>or</strong>rest Gump" follows the<br />
title character (played admlra.<br />
bly by Tom Hanks who will as.<br />
suredly earn another Best Ac.<br />
t<strong>or</strong> Oscar nommatlOn) from<br />
birth through 1982 Most of the<br />
film is narrated by Gump while<br />
he sits awaitmg a bus<br />
The <strong>to</strong>ne IS set early and<br />
quite vlVldly Mrs. Gump (Sally<br />
Field) runs a boardmg house<br />
and finds young F<strong>or</strong>rest m the<br />
room of one of her guests. The<br />
guest wants F<strong>or</strong>rest <strong>to</strong> contmue<br />
hiS hip.swmgIng whIle he plays<br />
,his guitar Sh<strong>or</strong>tly thereafter<br />
the infamous ElVIS appears on<br />
the screen doing the same<br />
moves F<strong>or</strong>rest did earlier. This<br />
scene is so absurd it makes<br />
everything else easIer <strong>to</strong> take<br />
And there IS quite a bit <strong>to</strong><br />
swallow<br />
The film is baSically a love<br />
st<strong>or</strong>y between Jenny
