It is difficult to select because not only there are many good movies but also they vary in different genres and subjects. The degree of difficulty starts to increase in the view of fact of performing a professional detailed analyzes. It looks like, the movie “Forrest Gump” is produced specifically to make the solving of this puzzle easier. The viewer through the movie’s suspense could cry, laugh out loudly and find pieces of his or her life in it even though it is a fictional artistic creation. The protagonist of the movie “Forrest Gump” not only participates actively in historical events of America but also meets personally the artistic and political personalities of that time. All the elements of movie, such as artistic, literary, musical, or cinematographic focus on a weird protagonist but a brilliant idiot, who through a metaphoric interaction with a feather not only opens and closes scenes of the movie but also amplifies the main message for the audience. Despite the fact that the human destiny is predicted or not a person should live like a feather, floating in the air because life is like a box of chocolates that no one knows what it has inside. It is this message that Forrest gives in similar way with a randomly floating of feather on a breeze.
