Very little. Forrest Gump the movie was based on a novel by Winston Broom, which is classified as fiction. The inspiration for the novel was a real man named Samuel Davis, Jr. I believe the real Forrest had a form of autism. He was also a war hero. Forrest Gump, the movie, did revolve around many true historic events in American life from the 1950's through the 1980's.
the movie was not a true story, therfore he never did die
Yeah. It is based on a true story
No,He is an adaptation, Forest Gump is based on a book character named Candide.Candide: or, the optimist is a book written by Voltaire a french philosopher.
There are many histoical events within the movie such as: The US Presidents, the Viet Nam War, the opening of relations to mainland China, civil rights activism, the computer age. All of these are historical facts. Actor Tom Hanks would not accept the role of Gump unless the historical events were accurate.
No, there's nothing at all about the movie that's true. (I mean, some of the things, like Watergate and the Vietnam War, really did happen, but Gump is a fictional character.)

True.
Not really true. It is based on a novel (fictional) by Winston Groom. //Actually, the character Forrest Gump was inspired by a decorated war hero named Samuel Davis. But Davis was not a shrimp boat captain, champion ping pong player or college graduate.//
The movie time-line covered about 30 years. Begining in the 1950's with Gump as a child through the 1980's. Gump's formative years were spent in the idealized 50's which gave way to the civil unrest of the 1960's, followed by the disco era in the late 1970's to AIDS in the 1980s. Using true historical facts and events with music from the appropriate time period, Forrest Gump covers the cultural evolution of America in the latter half of the 20th century.
No. many of the events that happen during forrest's life are true, be he himself is fictional.
