1995 was the year when the gods of the film world fought. "Forrest Gump" beat the current Douban no. 1 "Shawshank Redemption" and won six Oscar awards, becoming the biggest winner.
It also lived up to expectations, experienced the test of time, and still stood at the peak of film works after more than twenty years, with more and more people growing up.
The various full and three-dimensional character images created in the film are undoubtedly an important reason why it is so classic that it cannot be reproduced.
Among them, the image of Forrest Gump's mother is the finishing touch of the whole film, although the role is small, but it runs through the entire movie. Forrest Gump's "unintentional" success has a lot to do with his mother.
Teach Forrest Gump to see himself in perspective
If you had a child with a spine who had to wear leg hoops and had some intellectual problems, how would you lead him down the path of a normal person?
See what Forrest Gump's mom did.
She told Forrest Gump: "If heaven is equal, then everyone should wear leg bands." ”
"Don't let others think he's better than you, you're no different from others."
She redefines the fool: "Only those who do stupid things are fools." ”
First of all, build a strong heart for Forrest Gump verbally, let him clearly understand that God is unfair, with leg bands does not mean that he is different from ordinary people, others call him a fool, but he is not a real fool, only those who do stupid things are fools.
Then subtly influence Forrest Gump with his own actions.
On the way home with her mother leading Forrest Gump with a leg hoop, two big men on the side of the street sat in chairs and looked at Forrest Gump with discriminatory eyes. Instead of pulling Forrest Gump away from these glances, the mother greeted the discriminatory glances head-on in a recoiling manner: "What do you see, haven't you ever seen a foot hoop?" ”
In terms of education, the mother did not listen to the principal's advice to take Forrest Gump to a special school because of Forrest Gump's intellectual problems, and sent Forrest Gump to the school of a normal child by sexual bribery, receiving a good education.
The mother and Forrest Gump get along daily and never in the same way as children with low IQ, and she respects Forrest Gump's every choice.
It is said that parents are the first teachers of children, and it is said that teaching by example is the best way for parents to educate their children.
Forrest Gump's mother used years of words and actions to give Forrest Gump a clean and immaculate heart and childhood, walking the path that a normal child should take, building a fortress for him to resist the unfriendliness of the outside world, facing the wind and rain in the world, growing towards the sun, and moving towards success.
Teach Forrest Gump to look at fate
The most classic line in the movie is also a line that runs through the beginning and end of the movie: "Life is like a box of all kinds of chocolates, you don't know what the next one will taste." ”
This sentence comes from forrest Gump's mother.
Forrest Gump in the film has almost no self-pity, and when he complains about the world, this is inseparable from the defense line that Forrest Gump's mother has established for him since childhood how to view the changes in the world.
In Forrest Gump's world, there is no convention, what must happen.
He had a friend named Duncan, Forrest Gump's commander in the Vietnam War, born in a military family, for whom sacrificing or receiving honor in the war was a family mission, an inevitable thing.
However, in a field war, he was suddenly lost, he was not able to sacrifice himself on the battlefield as he wished, but was forcibly taken away by Forrest Gump, and finally lost his legs, and since then he has been reduced from a handsome officer to a sneaky brother who lives in the night scene and lives a decadent life.
Forrest Gump has a completely different view of fate than he does, and the way Forrest Gump opens the blind box to see fate makes him never expect something to happen, so he will not regret that it has not yet happened. Duncan decided that what had happened did not happen, and thus changed his life for the rest of his life. Fortunately, in the days with Forrest Gump, he accepted the arrangement of fate little by little, and finally reconciled with himself.
Forrest Gump's earnest and obedient attitude pushed him to the other side of success.
The mother did not tell Forrest Gump: "If fate is unfair, then it will be fought to the end." ”
She simply taught Forrest Gump to do things seriously and then accept the fate's arrangement.
Teach Forrest Gump to look at life and death
The mother had a conversation with Forrest Gump on the last journey of her life, explaining to Forrest Gump the meaning of death: "Death is part of life. ”
The mother explained to Forrest Gump in the most peaceful language that ordinary people can not face the most, since they are born, they must die, and it is the best way to face it calmly.
"In this life, I am destined to be your mother, then I will try my best to do well."
For her mother, she was not afraid of death at all, and in this life, she had tried her best to do what a mother should do.
And she also believes that Forrest Gump can give him the ultimate in what God has given him, which is the responsibility for life, not to live up to every fate arrangement, and of course, not to be afraid to face death.
Later, Forrest Gump was more calm in the face of Jenny's death, even if she shed tears, it was simply because of missing.
As the saying goes: "Behind a successful man, there must be a good woman." ”
Forrest Gump's mother is undoubtedly the excellent woman behind Forrest Gump who pushed him to the other side of success.
The success of "Forrest Gump" is indispensable to the shaping of the role of the mother who does not have much for this scene, but leads for Forrest Gump all the way through the thorns.
