Forrest Gump is super racist revisionist history, where a low-IQ white male accidentally causes all sorts of large political and social historical events that were actually initiated by black people in real life. Plus there's a ton of other messed up sexist/racist portrayals throughout the film. It's a pretty awful film. And it stole the Oscar from Shawshank Redemption!

I thought it was pretty great, and still do. But Shawshank was better, no argument from me. A great year of movies.
