My favorite foreign movie is Forrest Gump, which I have seen for four times. Each time I saw it, I was deeply moved and inspired by the male leading character—Forrest Gump. There are four reasons why I like this movie best.
Firstly, the plots designed in the movie are very extraordinary. It tells the story by Forrest Gump himself. He sits on the chair by the road and tells his life experiences to the strangers who are waiting for the bus. What he narrates reflect the social changes. Many important events and people of American from the 1950s to the 1970s are shown fluently in his description of his life experience. Moreover, the value and the spirits of Americans, especially the younger’s, are also revealed. These points are quite different from the other films I have seen.
Secondly, the character portrayed in the film is inspiring. Forrest Gump is unfortunately to be born with a low IQ and muscle problems, however, he becomes very successful through his struggling. His pure, honesty, integrity, bravery, perseverance, loyalty in love and promise not only touch me greatly, but also set a good example for me. From him, I learn that do well what we should, without thinking a lot, and be persistent, and life will reward us.
Thirdly, the movie is full of philosophy. Many lines in this movie are classical. For example, life is a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re gonna get. In addition, the sentence that death is just a part of life, something we’re all destined to do is also of wisdom. They make us think of life profoundly.
Fourthly, the pictures and the music in this film are rather beautiful. It begins with the beautiful scene: A white feather dances in the wind with the music gradually from soft to strong. In the sky, the feather is shinning brightly. At the end of this film, the feather appears with the wonderful music again. It creates a pure and peaceful world to us.
On the whole, this movie is special, inspiring, educational, philosophic and moving. I enjoy it every much. It is worthy of our appreciation for many times.
