Through the Booth Window

Episode 39 - Forrest Gump


Listen Later

Forrest Gump. Winner of 6 Academy Awards. Beloved by many. On many "Greatest Films" list. Shown in schools either as a history assignment or just so the teacher can take a break for a moment. So good even Newt Gingrich was inspired! But is it good? Is it worth this adoration? Cameron Shuman joins hosts Caitlin and Joey as they discuss in depth why they think Forrest Gump falls flat, and why they feel the film decides to make a conscious effort to stay neutral on so many historically important and volatile moments.
