Forrest Gump — trailer

Our take

Robert Zemeckis's career-best — a baby-boomer history-of-America told through the eyes of a man too uncomplicated to be cynical about it. Sentimental on purpose, ruthlessly well-crafted, and worth the rewatches it gets.

Good for: Anyone who enjoys big, accessible, era-spanning storytelling.
