Forrest Gump: Saving lives in Vietnam

What’s happening in this Forrest Gump movie clip?
Forrest (Tom Hanks) tells the story of how he saved many wounded soldiers in Vietnam as he was trying to find his friend Booba who died from his wounds on the field.

What’s the movie Forrest Gump about?
Stupid is as stupid does, says Forrest Gump (played by Tom Hanks in an Oscar-winning performance) as he discusses his relative level of intelligence with a stranger while waiting for a bus. Despite his sub-normal IQ, Gump leads a truly charmed life, with a ringside seat for many of the most memorable events of the second half of the 20th century. Entirely without trying, Forrest teaches Elvis Presley to dance, becomes a football star, meets John F. Kennedy, serves with honor in Vietnam, meets Lyndon Johnson, speaks at an anti-war rally at the Washington Monument, hangs out with the Yippies, defeats the Chinese national team in table tennis, meets Richard Nixon, discovers the break-in at the Watergate, opens a profitable shrimping business, becomes an original investor in Apple Computers, and decides to run back and forth across the country for several years. Meanwhile, as the remarkable parade of his life goes by, Forrest never forgets Jenny (Robin Wright Penn), the girl he loved as a boy, who makes her own journey through the turbulence of the 1960s and 1970s that is far more troubled than the path Forrest happens upon. Featured alongside Tom Hanks are Sally Field as Forrest's mother, Gary Sinise as his commanding officer in Vietnam, Mykelti Williamson as his ill-fated Army buddy who is familiar with every recipe that involves shrimp, and the special effects artists whose digital magic place Forrest amidst a remarkable array of historical events and people.

[c.i.a]

“Bubba was my best good friend. And even I know that ain’t something you can find just around the corner.”
Those are words to live by.Remember this

[SCUMMY]

When soldiers say "I wanna go home" it hurts, even if it's just a movie.

[derekghost]

I always loved that when Dan was yelling at him mad he saved him, but the moment he realized Gump was going back out there in the strike zone. He cared more about Gumps safety then his own anger.

He always cared. He was just a huge ass.

[fhaddad]

Bubba and Forest....two pure souls. "They said it was a million-dollar wound, but the Army must keep that money, 'cause I still ain't seen a nickel of that million dollars."

[BigDiki]

It’s the innocence and almost child like conversation these two had that always get me.

[callumjones]

oh god, bubba trying to hide his wounds with a branch while saying "i'm okay forrest" is just gut wrenching

[MrJustonemorevoice]

I think a lot of people missed out how traumatized Lt. Dan was.
He was one of the few officers in the war that actually cared about his men and they all got killed under his watch.
He wanted to die with them. A captain going down with the ship, his one last heroic deed to redeem his failure.
Then, here comes Gump. Who not only forces him to live with his shame, but in doing so also gets the love and recognition of every as the true hero of the day.

[Smarod]

"Gump you stay here that's an order" "I gotta find bubba" truly an example of the bond you develop with the guys you go with

[BigDiki]

It’s Bubba saying “I wanna go home” that always gets me. He supposed to be a shrimp captain

[derranthefunnyguy]

When you learn about the history of this war and find out that there was a big push to recruit young men that had the lowest grades and obvious difficulties these scenes where they are talking almost like children hit so much harder, this happened to so many young men throughout that horrible war.

[kylederry]

I like how Forrest still honors his friend by helping out his family. Giving Bubbas share of the shrimping business to his mom. I know the war scene was fantasy but it's damn powerful. These guys didn't need to be there but were drafted so they were forced to.

[johnstjohn]

This is where Woody learned you don't leave a Toy behind.

[nickmontalbano]

Bubba….he would’ve been so proud of his best friend.

[Programmer_Cookbook]

Despite he suffered an intellectual disability Forrest was a hell of soldier, never dropped his weapon, always ready to fire, he was really quick to prepare everything, he followed the objectives literally until the end, etc. The condition in these kind of persons is their real benediction.

[db]

In WW2 alot of young men who died on the field would cry for their mum or to go home. Unbelievably sad. RIP to those heroes who sacrificed themselves against evil.

[John-ctzs]

Forrest is one strong dude. Forrest carried the other guys with what looks like the fireman's lift, something most people can do. But the way he carried Bubba, that looked like just a straight dead lift carry.

[saoget]

I love how he carried Bubba in his hug, unlike he did with the rest of them.

[nealoliver]

One of the greatest movie scenes ever. Never get tired of watching. And that is why Forrest received the Medal of Honor. Rightfully so.

[billd.]

I was trained as a Combat Medic but was never sent to Vietnam. Sometimes I feel like my training was wasted, but I did what was expected of me and did it well. I like to think that God had other plans for me and looking back He did other than combat. My heart goes out to every soldier and medic who ever served. God Bless them all!…

[mannygreywolfsdb]

Didn't cry when his Momma died, didn't cry when Jenny died. But here....
