(PCM) Paramount Pictures’ Forrest Gump has been lauded as a classic heart warming tale of innocence, growing up, and loss, and this September 5th the film will be re-released in IMAX theaters in celebration of its 20th anniversary.
Forrest Gump opened in theaters on July 6, 1994, going on to gross over $329 million in U.S. box office sales.
Wowing audiences and critics with its technical thrills and great performances from Tom Hanks, Robin Wright, Sally Fields, and Gary Sinise, Forrest Gump earned 13 Academy Award nominations in 1995, taking home 6 of the coveted golden statues for Best Picture, Best Actor in a Leading Role (Tom Hanks), Best Director (Robert Zemeckis), Best Writing, Best Film Editing, and Best Visual Effects.
Forrest Gump follows the life of the simple-minded but lovable Forrest Gump, a well meaning man with an unfortunately low I.Q.
As Forrest journeys through life, learning lessons from his mama, falling in love with his childhood friend Jenny, becoming a war hero, and inspiring a nation, Forrest touches the lives of those around him with his kind heart.
Forrest Gump will re-open in IMAX theaters nationwide September 5, 2014. Visit the film’s official website here and watch the trailer below!
