[post_page_title]The school scene’s inspiration[/post_page_title]
The scene where a young Forrest Gump is sitting on a school bench outside of the principal’s office didn’t just come out of nowhere.
The filmmakers were inspired by Norman Rockwell’s painting ‘Girl with the Black Eye’ and they wanted to pay a bit of homage to it in their movie. While the circumstances surrounding the principal’s meeting with Mrs. Gump may be slightly different but the point was still pretty much made, and we can certainly see the resemblance.
