Gump was born near the small town of Greenbow, Alabama, on June 6, 1944 (the same day the Allied forces began Operation Overlord). His father was absent during his life; his mother said he was "on vacation". His mother named Forrest after Nathan Bedford Forrest, a noted Confederate general in the American Civil War and the first Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, who is supposedly related to Gump. She intended his name to be a reminder that "sometimes we all do things that, well, just don't make no sense."

Is the movie 'Forrest Gump' a mockery?

Forrest Gump is neither a mockery or a parady. This does not make it non-fiction though. The Gump character was based loosely on a real man named Sam Davis, Jr. Davis suffered from autism but he was a war hero just as in the movie. The movie uses historical events to give the viewer a sense of times and eras.


What is the relationship between Forrest Gump and his mama?

As are most characters in the movie, Forrest Gump's mother is a foil to his character. These supplementary character have no purpose in the general scheme of the movie other than to advance the plot and help the Protagonist discover himself on his journey. She relates to Forrest by using metaphors and similies because she knows the state of his mental cogniscence. For instance, "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get" and "Mama say's my backs as crooked as a politician but these braces gonna make them straight as an arrow". Forrest does not relate to normal explanations of things, so his mother tries to make sense of the world for him. Many things she says are very conflicting and do not provide him any insight, but rather confusion, which leads him to discover his own way. His journey is affected by the foils, such as his mother, who make him who he is.


Did Forrest Gump really make up the Elvis dance?

No. Although Forrest Gump was inspired by a real person, most of the story line was fiction, with the exception of the historical events. Actor Tom Hanks agreed to the role only if the events (such as moon landing, and president assassination) were historically accurate.
