Mrs. Gump






Forrest... Forrest...

 

FORREST (V.O.)

One time a young man was staying

with us, and he had him a guitar

case.

 

Mrs. Gump looks into Forrest's room. She hears singing coming

from another room and walks over to a closed door. Mrs. Gump

opens the door, revealing a young man with long sideburns as

he plays the guitar and sings. Forrest holds onto a broom

and dances oddly. The young man is ELVIS PRESLEY.

 

ELVIS PRESLEY

(sings)

" Well, you ain't never caught a

rabbit, and you ain't no friend of

mine."

 

Forrest's legs rock back and forth to the guitar.

 

MRS. GUMP

Forrest! I told you not to bother

this nice young man.

 

ELVIS

Oh, no, that's all right, ma'am. I

was just showin' him a thing or two

on the guitar here.

 

MRS. GUMP

All right, but your supper's ready

if y'all want to eat.

 

ELVIS

Yeah, that sounds good. Thank you,

ma'am.

 

Mrs. Gump leaves and closes the door. Elvis sits back down.

 

Forrest stands left, and looks himself in a mirror.

 

ELVIS

Say, man, show me that crazy little

walk you just did there. Slow it

down some.

 

Forrest begins to dance again as Elvis plays the guitar and

sings.

 

ELVIS

(sings)

" You ain't nothin' but a hound, hound

dog..."

 

FORREST (V.O.)

I liked that guitar.

 

Forrest dances as he watches himself in the mirror.

 

FORREST (V.O.)

It sounded good.

 

ELVIS

(sings)

"...cryin' all the time"

 

Forrest rocks up and down on his braced legs, then begins to

step.

 

ELVIS

(sings)

" You ain't nothin' but a hound dog..."

 

FORREST (V.O.)

I started moving around to the music,

swinging my hips. This one night me

and Momma...

 

EXT. GREENBOW - NIGHT

 

Mrs. Gump and Forrest walk along a sidewalk. A television

inside a store window reveals Elvis Presley as he performs

" Houng Dog" on a stage.

 

FORREST (V.O.)

...was out shoppin', and we walked

right by Benson's Furniture and

Appliance store, and guess what.

 

The television reveals Elvis as he thrusts his hips and sings.

 

ELVIS

(sings)

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog...

 

Mrs. Gump and Forrest watch the television. Elvis dances

around in the same manner Forrest did. A woman in the audience

screaming and applauding.

 

ELVIS

(sings)

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog...

 

MRS. GUMP

This is not children's eyes.

 

Mrs. Gump walks away, pulling Forrest with her. Forrest stops

and takes one last look. Elvis continues to perform over the

television.

 

ELVIS

(sings)

" Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit

and you ain't no friend of mine."
