FORREST (V.O.). She said they was my magic shoes.






She said they was my magic shoes.

 

Forrest has been fitted with orthopedic shoes and metal leg

braces.

 

DOCTOR

All right, Forrest, you can open

your eyes now. Let's take a little

walk around.

 

The doctor sets Forrest down on its feet. Forrest walks around

stiffly. Forrest's mother, MRS. GUMP, watches him as he clanks

around the room awkwardly.

 

DOCTOR

How do those feel? His legs are

strong, Mrs. Gump. As strong as I've

ever seen. But his back is as crooked

as a politician.

 

Forrest walks foreground past the doctor and Mrs. Gump.

 

DOCTOR

But we're gonna straighten him right

up now, won't we, Forrest?

 

A loud thud is heard as, outside, Forrest falls.

 

MRS. GUMP

Forrest!

 

EXT. GREENBOW, ALABAMA

 

Mrs. Gump and young Forrest walk across the street. Forrest

walks stiffly next to his mother.

 

FORREST (V.O.)

Now, when I was a baby, Momma named

me after the great Civil War hero,

General Nathan Bedford Forrest...

 

EXT. RURAL ALABAMA

 

A black and white photo of General Nathan Bedford Forrest.

 

The photo turns into live action as the General dons a hooded

sheet over his head.

 

The General is in full Ku Klux Klan garb, including his horse.

 

The General rides off, followed by a large group of Klan

members dressed in full uniform.

 

FORREST (V.O.)

She said we was related to him in

some way. And, what he did was, he

started up this club called the Ku

Klux Klan. They'd all dress up in

their robes and their bedsheets and

act like a bunch of ghosts or spooks

or something. They'd even put

bedsheets on their horses and ride

around. And anyway, that's how I got

my name. Forrest Gump.

 

EXT. GREENBOW

 

Mrs. Gump and Forrest walk across the street.

 

FORREST (V.O.)

Momma said that the Forrest part was

to remind me that sometimes we all

do things that, well, just don't

make no sense.

 

Forrest stops suddenly as his brace gets stuck. Forrest's

brace is caught in a gutter grate. Mrs. Gump bends down and

tries to free Forrest. Two old cronies sit in front of a

barber shop and watch.

 

MRS. GUMP

Just wait, let me get it.

 

Mrs. Gump struggles to pull the stuck brace from the grate.

 

MRS. GUMP

Let me get it. Wait, get it this

way. Hold on.

 

Forrest pulls his foot out of the grate.

 

MRS. GUMP

All right.

 

Mrs. Gump helps Forrest up onto the sidewalk. She looks up

and notices the two old man.

 

MRS. GUMP

Oooh. All right. What are you all

staring at? Haven't you ever seen a

little boy with braces on his legs

before?

 

Mrs. Gump and Forrest walk along the sidewalk past the two

old men. Mrs. Gump holds tightly onto Forrest's hand.
