This factory sealed 2-disc special collectors edition is a deleted title and is no longer being manufactured in this version. A slow-witted boy grows to adulthood, floating through life--like a feather--with only a vauge understanding of the tumultous times he's living through. As the intelligence impaired Gump with a heart of gold and more than enough character and dignity, Hanks supplies another career highlight. Sally Field contributes a nice turn as his dedicted mama, while Gary Sinese is particularly effective as a handicapped Vietnam veteran. Incredible special effects put Gump in the middle of historical events over a four decade period. He manages to be on hand for every socio-pop-political phenomenon of the formative Baby Boomer years, from the rise of Elvis to the fall of Nixon. But the real story is the life affirming, non-judgmental power of Gump to transform the lives of those around him.
