Introduction 
 
One day when Curtis had to change a wheel on the car, I helped him.
‘If you’re an idiot,’ he said angrily, ‘how do you know how to do that?’
‘Maybe I am an idiot,’ I said, ‘but ‘I’m not stupid.

I was born an idiot, but ‘I’m cleverer than most people think. 
We quickly realize this is true in this wonderfully warm and
funny story about Forrest Gump, a good-hearted young man
from Alabama in the USA. He wins a medal for being very brave in 
the Vietnam war and meets the President of the United States of 
America. He becomes a footballer, a film star, a businessman and he 
goes into space. And his best friend is an ape called Sue! 
Forrest Gump 
is now a film, with Tom Hanks and Sally Field in it. 
Tom Hanks won an Oscar for the film in 1994. In its first eighteen 
days, the film of Forrest Gump took $100 million in American 
cinemas — more than any other film that Paramount Pictures has 
made before. Forrest Gump is an unusual man who does a lot of 
unusual things. Millions of ordinary Americans liked the film. They 
felt Forrest Gump’s story was also partly a story about themselves
and about America from the 1960s to today. Forrest Gump lived
the ‘American Dream’. It doesn’t matter if you are rich or poor, you 
can be anything you want to be. 
Winston Groom’s other books are 
Better Times Than These,
about the war in Vietnam, and 
As Summers Die. 
He lives for some
of the time in New York City and for the rest of the time in
 
Clear 
Point, Alabama.
