Gab's Number 6 Movie

Forrest Gump

This is essentially the only Tom Hanks movie that I like (sorry, Renee!), but it is honestly amazing. The story is beautifully told and I feel smart when I watch it because I recognize all of the historical events that I learned about in school. Tom Hanks is brilliant, it has beautiful music, the historical footage is blended perfectly, it makes me cry every time, what more can you really ask for in a movie? 



Peace, Gabfunkel. (this is even better since Simon & Garfunkel play in this movie!)

PS: The same writers also wrote the screenplay for 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.' I was, however, very disappointed in this one. It felt too much like a poor attempted repeat of Forrest Gump.
