Take my word for it - don't never let nobody make a movie of your life's story...' Forrest Gump is back! The lovable man for all ages captured America's heart in the No.1 bestselling novel Forrest Gump and in the blockbuster film, winner of six Academy Awards® including Best Picture and Best Actor. Now he returns in the long-awaited sequel to the book hailed by Larry King as 'the funniest novel I have ever read'. A little older, and wiser in his own unique way, he is still running through the kaleidoscopic events of our times - and straight into the age of greed and instant gratification known as the 1980s. Whenever I really get stumped, I go visit Jenny's grave. She tells me she's always rooting for me. The Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. has gone bust and Forrest is flat broke, sweeping floors in a New Orleans strip joint when Gump & Co. begins. As always in Forrest's easy-come-easy-go life, a change in the weather is never far off...and when the opportunity to play championship football comes his way once more, Forrest is back in the limelight and in the money. But fate is a fickle lady, and he's soon out on the road selling phony encyclopedias and trying to raise his son, little Forrest, who needs his father more than ever. Forrest's remarkable, touching, and utterly comic odyssey has just begun: in store for him is an explosive attempt at hog farming; his own dubious recipe for adding life to New Coke; an encounter with Ollie North; and a chance yet again to unwittingly twist the nose of history. One of the most phenomenally successful books of our time, Forrest Gump was praised as 'a wacky and funny nuthouse of a book' (George Plimpton) and 'superbly controlled satire' (Florence King, Washington Post Book World); Forrest himself 'should enter the annals of fiction as a great American hero' (Rima Firrone, Ocala Star-Banner). Winston Groom continues to delight us with Gump's hilarious and heartwarming adventures. 'At least,' Forrest would agree, 'I ain't led no humdrum life'.

Facharbeit (Schule) aus dem Jahr 1998 im Fachbereich Didaktik - Englisch - Literatur, Werke, Note: 1, Priv. Gymnasium Marienstatt, Veranstaltung: Leistungskurs Englisch, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: ”Hello - My name is Forrest, Forrest Gump!” Everyone who knows the movie Forrest Gump remembers this first sentence, the beginning of Forrest’s story. This sentence is an introduction as well as the foundation for a story that describes Forrest’s life in a very detailed way. In the film Forrest is a narrow-minded, naive and completely innocent boy from the Deep South who lives in a very strange way through a decisive period of America’s immediate past. His participation in this period is so strange because he is actively making history without realising that; he only lives from day to day – and his most immediate goal is to finally reach his one and only love – Jenny. Therefore, his life can be described as ”accidental-like on a breeze”, and at the same time he has a ”destiny” as well – and in the end Forrest is smart enough to understand this paradox of his life. Forrest Gump is basically a mirror of the sixties and seventies of our century. Through his eyes we can see our immediate past. ”We” includes the older audience – who lived through that period themselves – as well as the younger audience who can learn a lot about the era of their parents. The movie touched the souls of many Americans who can identify certain parts of their own life (or the life of their parents) in that of Forrest, but those feelings were shared throughout the world by many nations as well. But the movie itself is based on a novel written by Winston Groom. Here the author describes a different Forrest Gump – and yet the same. This other Forrest Gump had a different life, but the key elements are still the same in his modified ”counterpart”. Therefore it will be my goal to find out by what means and how well Groom’s original novel Forrest Gump was transformed into the movie version Forrest Gump. There will be a detailed comparison between the two characterisations of Forrest Gump, a look at the ”minor” characters, different views on the ”visual conversion” and a final decision whether the transformation itself can be called appropriate or not.

Publicado pela primeira vez em 1986, Forrest Gump não só está entre os clássicos da literatura e do cinema mundial, como representa um marco na cultura pop do século 20. Trinta anos depois de seu lançamento, a encantadora trajetória do jovem que só queria fazer as coisas certas – e acabou sendo um dos homens mais notáveis da história – continua fascinando e comovendo leitores em todo o mundo. O romance chega ao leitor com acabamento em capa dura, 13 ilustrações de Rafael Coutinho – ilustrador, quadrinista e fã da obra – e um ensaio comparando o livro à sua adaptação cinematográfica, feito pela francesa Isabelle Roblin – professora da Université du Littoral-Côte d'Opale. Também merece destaque a capa dupla-face: uma sobrecapa de papel com impressão em ambos os lados, que permite ao leitor escolher o seu design favorito. A capa é de Pedro Inoue, o mesmo artista de 2001: Uma Odisseia no Espaço e a da edição comemorativa de 50 anos de Laranja Mecânica.. Essa é a obra que apresenta a história original de Forrest, o excepcional e sincero protagonista de um dos mais memoráveis romances norte-americanos. Foi dele que saíram as principais situações que ganharam o público nos cinemas: desde o sucesso com o futebol americano até a viagem à China comunista. Com direção de Robert Zemeckis, o filme homônimo fez bastante sucesso entre o público e a crítica e conquistou 6 Oscars, incluindo a categoria de Melhor Filme. O protagonista, que ganhou vida no cinema com a cativante interpretação de Tom Hanks, é ainda mais inusitado e peculiar no livro, com um espírito questionador da cultura norte-americana que não foi transposto para as telas. Além disso, a obra de Groom traz ainda mais aventuras inusitadas de Forrest, sendo um grande acréscimo para aqueles que apenas viram o filme.
