What American spirit does Forrest Gump represent in Forrest Gump? And what trend of thought did Jenny reflect in America at that time?

Forrest Gump is brave, omnipotent, loyal, trustworthy and affectionate.

Forrest Gump is not only a Hollywood fantasy story, but also a legendary life biography. More importantly, through Forrest Gump's extraordinary life experience with an IQ of only 75, Americans' simple and optimistic spirit and firm and persistent high notes were promoted, and Forrest Gump's life experience in the United States in the 1950s and 1980s reflected a fable of contemporary American spirit returning to traditional values.

Forrest Gump, as a humorous comedy film, is not as ridiculous and sarcastic as other films of the same type. It only provides an entertaining and happy text for the audience, but it expresses a serious theme of life. Through the eyes and personal experience of the protagonist Forrest Gump, it runs through the major historical events in the United States from the 1950s to the 1980s, and explains the mental journey of the American generation from confusion to confusion.

The whole film is not only a wonderful interpretation of his legendary life, but also a display and fable of the American spirit.

Forrest Gump inherited the optimistic and strong American spirit. He is honest and kind, loyal to friendship and love, ready to help others, with tenacious optimism and persistent enterprising spirit. It is precisely because of this spiritual quality that he can feel at home in the army with low IQ. He not only performed well, but also made a meritorious military service, won a medal, and participated in "ping pong diplomacy" because of his excellent technology. After military service, in order to fulfill his friend Babu's long-cherished wish, he came to Babu's hometown and bought a shrimp boat. With his unremitting efforts, he became a giant in the shrimp industry. Later, Forrest Gump gave courage and faith to all the insane people in Qian Qian during his non-stop running.

The reason why Forrest Gump can be welcomed by the audience lies in the profound cultural connotation, life theme, superb narrative skills and movie stunts, in addition to the formal characteristics of comics. The humanistic connotation it reflects provides a spiritual direction for the audience in the United States and the world, and adds a deeper understanding of life to us. The life course of Forrest Gump makes us more deeply realize what kind of mentality life should need. Forrest Gump's fate is like floating feathers in a movie. Although it jumps and falls from time to time, it always flies to the sky and gallops its own beautiful destiny. Perhaps, like Forrest Gump, we will cross every mountain and trek every river, experience every dull or surprising story as an ordinary person, watch the splendor and beauty of every place in nature and listen to the deep voice of every friend.
