1. 研究目的与意义

there are three reasons for choosing this topic:

First, it is for my interest. Forrest Gump won six awards of Oscar in 1995, to some extent, it is not only a movie, but it was also a kind of symbol of American culture. This movie brought people back to 60s of United States and reviewed the American history for 30 years. It was a generation that many people lost their confidence in life. So this movie created a hero who wanted to change this world and appealed to regain American tradition values. I feel it is worth doing some study. Second, we can research American culture through this movie. When we enjoy this movie, we find that Forrest gump and Jenny are real portrait of two kinds of people in that world. Forrest gump#8217;s mother affected his life and made a great influence on his success. I have discussed a question with my classmates: how to give a proper position for Forrest gump and Jenny so that it could reflect American culture better in that age through them. Third, based on the study above through some analysis for Forrest gump and Jenny about their character and features, we can know more about American values and how these values changed America.
