Mistakes
During Forrest's first football game, he is standing staring off into space when they receive the kickoff, his teammate runs over to him, hands him the ball, and tells him to run. Forrest says, "Okay". The camera cuts to the coach on the sideline who is yelling for him to "run!, run!", while at the same time his head is turning as if he is watching Forrest run past him. But the next camera shot shows Forrest running, but he has not yet gotten to the point on the sideline where the coach and the team are standing. See more...
