Forest Gump Viewed Through a Completely Different Lens

I remember loving Forest Gump when it came out in 1994. It was an incredible movie, really a tale of an unorthodox hero, who bumbled his way to the center of major milestones throughout American history in the second half of the 20th century.

But who knew that you could interpret it in an entirely different way?

Here was an interesting, and very different, take on a familiar tale, a move that most of us know quite well by now. I still love this movie, even after all these years, and even after having viewed it probably half a dozen to a dozen times since first seeing it in the movie theaters almost a quarter of a century ago now.
