Trivia

Dave Chappelle was originally offered the role of Bubba in Forrest Gump, which was in a pre-production stage. He was concerned about what seemed to be a racially demeaning character so he turned down the part. He has since admitted to regretting the decision. See more...

Mistake Factual error: Jenny shows Forrest a clipping of him in U.S.A Today magazine (first published in September 1982), but on Jenny's grave it says she died on March 22 1982.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Forrest goes and visits Jenny (and is introduced to his son), there is an iron on the ironing board in the background. It stands up, then down, then up. The child's artwork in the background also disappears.

Mistake Continuity: When Forrest firsts meets Jenny on the bus to school, a girl is sitting behind them, then disappears, then reappears again..

Mistake Factual error: In the scene where Forrest gets his discharge papers, he is practicing table tennis in a gym. The gym floor has a three-point line on the basketball court. It is a college or high school three point line- 19 feet, 9 inches. There was no three pointer in basketball at that time, especially at that distance.

Mistake Continuity: When Forrest finally catches shrimp on the boat, the net drops DEAD shrimp on the deck.

Mistake Continuity: When Forrest is running the football field and passing all the players, he passes everyone except the referee, who can be seen moving down the sidelines at a faster pace than Forrest.
