影片對白

Forrest: You died on a Saturday morning and I had you placed here under our tree. And I had house of your father's bulldozed to the ground. Mama always said dying was a part of life. I sure wish it wasn't. Little Forrest is doing just fine. He's about to start school again soon. I make his breakfast, lunch and dinner everyday. I make sure he combs his hair and brushes his teeth everyday. I 'm teachin' him how to play ping pong. We fish a lot, and every night we read a book. He's so smart, Jenny. You'd be so proud of him. I am. He even wrote you a letter. He says I can't read it. It's Forrest's so I'll just leave it here for you. Jenny, I don't know if mama was right or if it's Lieutenant Dan. I don't know if we each have a destiny or if we're all just floating around accidental like on a breeze but I think that maybe it's both. Maybe both are happening at the same time. If there's anything you need, I won't be far away.

(later)

Forrest: Here's your bus. OK. Hey, I know this.

Little Forrest: I'm going to show that for show-and-tell because grandma used to read it to you.

Forrest: My favorite book. OK. Here you go. Hey, Forrest, I want to tell you I love you.

Little Forrest: I love you too, daddy.

Forrest: I'll be right here when you get back.

Dorothy: You understand that this is the bus to the school now, don't you?

Little Forrest: Of course, and you're Dorathy Harris, and I am Forrest Gump.

妙詞佳句,活學活用

1. Little Forrest is doing just fine： 這句話的意思是小阿甘一切都好，這句話雖然簡單可是中國同學很少使用，其實我們每次見面問好時都常說how are you doing 答案就可以是I am doing fine。

2 .brush：在這里用作動詞指用刷子清洗，擦亮，動詞還可以用作不客氣地打發走；把……撇在一邊：比如He brushed an old friend off.他不理會老朋友

3. I don't know if we each have a destiny or if we're all just floating around accidental like on a breeze這是阿甘對整部電影的一個總結，首先是丹中尉認為的一切都是命中注定，他就該戰死沙場。其次就是母親總說的生活就像巧克力，一切都得順其自然。大家不妨在感嘆人生時引用阿甘的這句話。

4. show-and-tell：這里就是指看圖講故事。

思想火花

這是全劇的結尾，Jenny的離去讓人覺得有些悲涼。在我們羨慕阿甘離奇經歷和巨大成功的時候再仔細一想發現其實阿甘的運氣并不是很好，甚至可以說是差極了。

作者并沒有把阿甘設計成完美的歡喜結局。我們想想阿甘這輩子最重要的就是Jenny，可卻只在最后兩人團聚。而時間短得可憐。從開頭公車上的1981到Jenny墓碑上的1982年3月22日，也就是幾個月。

阿甘一生的追求卻只換來了幾個月的幸福，這里我們不禁為他們惋惜。可是，這就是作者要我們去體會的，讓阿甘告訴我們的。告訴我們什么是真愛，什么是執著，什么是樂觀，什么是勇氣。

當Jenny后悔沒和阿甘早些在一起時，阿甘的一句you were讓我們看到了一個男人對愛的堅持，對所愛的人的包容。最值得一提的就是影片兩次設計阿甘在墓碑前對著已故的人說話，這就是阿甘的樂觀與希望之火。他更愿意選擇讓這些人永遠活在心中，而把希望和更多的行動放在未來。就像小阿甘的出現，這就是希望的延續。

很有趣的是作者給我們留下了一個啟示，當看到最后小阿甘那么小就去上學的情景時，我不禁想到明天會更好這句話。是啊，阿甘的兒子那么小就去上學了，也許他的身上有著Jenny的智慧和阿甘的堅韌吧。

羽毛再次飄起，就像阿甘母親說的不知道下一秒會怎樣，但羽毛又像丹中尉說的那樣命中注定的在阿甘的書中停留片刻。人生到底是怎樣的？羽毛就是答案。
