On July 6, 1994, the movie Forrest Gump opened in U.S. theaters. A
huge box-office success, the film starred
Tom Hanks in the title role
of Forrest, a good-hearted man with a low I.Q. who winds up at the
center of key cultural and historical events of the second half of the
20th century.

Forrest Gump was based on a 1986 novel of the same name by
Winston Groom, who (like his main character) grew up in
Alabama
and served in the Army during Vietnam.
