:04:00
Mama always said
there's an awful lot
:04:02
you can tell about
a person by their shoes.
:04:06
Where they're going,
:04:08
where they've been.
:04:16
I've worn lots ofshoes.
:04:20
I bet if I think
about it real hard
:04:23
I could remember
my fi rst pair ofshoes.
:04:28
Mama said they'd
take me anywhere .
:04:31
[Gump]
Shesaid th ey was my magic shoes.
:04:34
All right, Forrest,
Open your eyes now .
:04:44
Let's take a little walk around.
:04:53
How do those feel?
:04:57
His legs are strong,
Mrs. Gump,
:05:00
as strong as I've ever seen.
:05:02
But his back's as
crooked as a politician.
:05:06
But we're going to straighten him
right up, aren't we, Forrest?
:05:09
Forrest!
:05:11
Now, when I was a baby,
:05:13
Mama named me after
the great Civil War hero
:05:16
General Nathan Bedford Forrest.
:05:17
General Nathan Bedford Forrest.
:05:18
She said we was related
to him in some way.
:05:21
What he did was,
:05:23
hetarted up this club
called the Ku Klux Klan.
:05:26
They'd all dress up in their robes
and th eirbed sheets
:05:30
and act like a bunch
of ghosts or spooks or something.
:05:34
They'd even put bed sheets
on their horses and ride around.
:05:38
And, anyway, that'show
I got my name-- Forrest Gump.
:05:42
Mama said the Forrest part
was to remind me
:05:45
that sometimes we all
do things that, well,
:05:48
that just don't make no sense.
:05:59
This way. Hold on. Ugh!
