In the movie "Forrest Gump," the titular character (played by Tom Hanks) unintentionally lands himself on the football team of the University of Alabama, and then subsequently the All-American Team. In 1963, Forrest and the rest of the team meet John F. Kennedy.
Forest gump!

The film, 'JFK,' is a good representation of history. This movie included facts about this event. There were also actual video clips of JFK being assassinated in this film.
The story follows the life of low I.Q. Forrest Gump and his meeting with the love of his life Jenny. The film chronicles his accidental experiences with some of the most important people and events in America from the late 1950's through the 1970's including a meeting with Elvis Presley, JFK, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, fighting in Vietnam, etc. The problem is, he's too stupid to realize the significance of his actions. Forrest becomes representative of the baby boomer generation having walked through life blindly.
