Not a bad article. My views on Forrest Gump aren’t quite as positive but I never thought that Jenny might represent post-modernism and cynicism while Forrest symbolizeD American idealism and Christian values.

Knowing everything we know now about Hollywood, I see the movie as a big fuck-you to American history. Forrest is good and pure and strong but super dumb. Undoubtedly that’s how globalists view us (strong but dumb). The fact that they tie his storyline to every major event in US history makes it seem like all our successes were an accident (like a feather in the wind). And after running across the country, he tells everyone that he just felt like running. In other words, there was no deeper meaning to his efforts, no deeper truth. To extrapolate, there wasn’t any deeper values that drove the success of the US, it was all dumb meaningless luck.

Sure they dress it up with an awesome soundtrack and memorable characters and quotable lines, but it seems to be the antithesis of the Great Awakening to me.

Of course. Tom Hanks!
