影片對白

Neil Armstrong (Astronaut): That's one small step for man, are giant leaps for mankind...

Forrest: I thought I was going back to Vietnam but instead they decided the best way for me to fight the communists was to play ping pong. So I was in the special services, traveling around the country, cheering up all those wounded veterans and showin' how to play ping pong. I was so good that some years later, the army decide that I should be on the All-American Ping Pong Team. I was the first American to visit the land of China in like a million years or something like that. Somebody said would peace is in our hands. But all I did was play ping pong. When I got home, I was a national celebrity. Famous even than Captain kangaroo.

TV Host: Here he is, Forrest Gump, right here. Forrest Gump, John Lennon.

John: Welcome home.

TV Host: Can you tell us, what was China like?

Forrest: In the land of China. People hardly got nothin'at all.

John: No possessions?

Forrest: And in China, they never go to church.

John: No religion, too.

TV Host: Wow. It's hard to imagine.

John: Well, it's easy if you try, Dick.

Forrest: Some years later, that nice young man from England was on his way home to see his little boy, and was signing some autographs, for no particular reason at all, somebody shot him.

妙詞佳句,活學(xué)活用

1.That's one small step for man, are giant leaps for mankind...：阿姆斯特朗登月時(shí)說的第一句話，標(biāo)志人類里程碑的這句話意思是指他邁出的這一小步卻是人類的一個(gè)巨大飛躍.

2.Captain kangaroo：當(dāng)時(shí)一個(gè)非常出名的電視節(jié)目，其實(shí)這種說法也是在告訴我們當(dāng)時(shí)的年代。在1985年后這個(gè)節(jié)目就停播了。但這種表達(dá)我們也可以借鑒，如果你想說自己很出名，就可以說I am even famous than 后面加一個(gè)當(dāng)時(shí)很流行的事物。

思想火花

阿甘這部電影的精髓在于，用一個(gè)智商只有75的低能兒的離奇經(jīng)歷串起了美國30多年的歷史。從貓王到披頭士，從垮掉一代到嬉皮士，從吸毒講到性解放運(yùn)動(dòng)，從人類登月到婦女解放， 從越戰(zhàn)到反戰(zhàn)運(yùn)動(dòng)，從中美建交到水門事件，把美國這些年的歷史要事是差不多掀了個(gè)底朝天。對于不很了解這些歷史的年輕人無疑是一堂寓教于樂的文化課。而上面這個(gè)節(jié)選就是最有代表性的一段。開始是阿姆斯特朗的人類第一次月球探險(xiǎn)，緊接著是尼克松訪華乒乓外交，最后又是音樂巨匠約翰列農(nóng)的英倫入侵。實(shí)在是不得不佩服作者超乎常人的想象力，將它們和阿甘聯(lián)系到一起。如果對約翰列農(nóng)了解的同學(xué)馬上會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)一個(gè)細(xì)節(jié)，就是在采訪時(shí)他講的每一句話都是imagine這首歌里的歌詞。而這首歌也讓人們永遠(yuǎn)的記住了約翰列農(nóng)。
