Forrest Gump is one of the best films in the history of cinema, a huge box office success that won no less than six Oscars. With a very creative and surprising script, the film is very entertaining and presents numerous historical and cultural references.
Some have interpreted the film as a critique of the mediocrity of American society, in which a mentally disabled man becomes decisive in the history of the United States. However, the majority of the public, like director Robert Zemeckis, analyzed the film as the story of a hero who, despite his difficulties, manages to succeed in life, working hard and believing in his dreams.
In this storyboard, the quality and level of detail of James Hegedus' drawings is impressive. A renowned professional in Hollywood, he also participated in the storyboards of other big movie hits such as Rain Man, Die Hard 4, Batman and Shrek, among others.
