any time i see Tom Hanks i just see Tom Hanks. it's just Tom Hanks acting. i never feel like it's a different character. it's pedo Tom Hanks pedo-ly acting like a different person

Definitely

Absolutely timeless!!

He WAS one of the most iconic of all time...but I get what you mean lol. Crazy that his actual accent became Forrest.

@@marvinthemartian4044 I think that is one of the best parts of the movie. It makes it even more unique . Then again I can't think of another person to play that movie but Robin Williams that could of fit into it that easy.

🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕

What an icon! Pulls stress off the kid. Helps Tom get a good reference for Forests voice.

It’s not brilliant for an actor to say… hey wait a second… maybe the adult character I play… who’s from Alabama… has an ACTUAL equivalent accent from the south like this ACTUAL southern kid has? Nothing brilliant about that. In fact. It’s kinda fucking dumbass common sense.

Keep that thing away from all children/babies....

@@lorigraham1554 go away weirdo, nobody cares about your half-baked conspiracy theories.

Im sure he was a nice guy when he was on jeffrey epstein's island

@@JakeTardcumI was literally just about to say the same thing. Ever since I read about that I can never look at Tom Hanks the same which really sucks, he’s one of the few actors I actually liked.

if you're a p___o

​@@Abbyj19 But its only a rumour, not actual fact and most of the stuff in the media is actual crap. Kinda worrying that you instantly believe he abused kids

Don't idolize people. He looks nice on tv but I know for a fact he'll cuss out old ladies who try to say hi to him in real life. He hates the plebs who made him famous.

Agreed 👍

That voice made a master piece. Of drama .

Facts

Made the movie 🎬

Yes, definitely. If you watch the audition tapes, Tom Hanks version of Forrest was NOT working. Then, he started using Michael's accent and it fixed it.

Ironically the kid went into the army and married a Jenny

Tom was glad too, he personally picked him. He learned how from epstein.

It’s the other way around. Hanks ended up playing that child as an adult. That’s literally the point of this video.

@@johnnyghanja Trump taught him well then. Too bad for you Hanks never did what Epstein and Trump did.

@@ThePunk01 what did Trump do.? Oh wait i know, secured our southern border, brokered peace in the middle east, never got us in a new illegal war, cut our taxes and raised our income, brought manufacturing back, made us energy independent, achieved al time lows in unemployment for blacks hispanics and women, secured billions for hbcu's, created the First Step Act.... should i go on or are you going to add to the list. There is only one rule, whatever you write in has to be the truth, not some version of the msm's deranged accusations and outright lies.

Epstein would agree.

@@cavidicusdurtisness5238literally no evidence

He's right tho

*accent

@@magtovi why are you correcting someone that's right? he's speaking with a dialect of the southern accent

@@zack-lk8if Because he's wrong. Dialect is when the language starts diverging enough from the original that understanding can be affected, whole words, semantics and maybe grammar will be changed. A different accent just changes the intonations and the pronunciation of certain letters and words.

@@magtovi but southerners have different words and phrases we use as well. i would say we have a dialect not just an accent.

@@oventree Yeah, not enough divergence to be called a dialect. Talk to somebody from the Caribbean Islands or maybe Belize, then you'll understand what a dialect means. Their form of English is far removed enough that one struggles to understand them.

So true.

You just described the video we all just watched. I bet you ruin movie night for everyone!

Thanks for explaining what we all watched buddy

The best part was when he said "It's acting time!", and then he just starts acting all over the place!

Tom hanks isn't an actress though.

We used to have the most beautiful land until the snowbirds moved down and turned it into the same shithole they just escaped from.

Why, thank you mam.

I'm from Chicago and my wife is from the Alabama mountains, and her speech is so lovely, and relaxed.

Well bless your heart, thank you! 😊 (Yes, sometimes southerns are sincere in blessing someone's heart. Context and tone make all the difference.)

We sure do😊😂

And it made forest jump so rememberable

Geographical accurate? Lol what you tryin to say we ain’t all dummies down here in the south you know

@@captainflatbed.7927 There's nothing wrong with an accent, there is with pretending an accent determines someone's intelligence. Not only that, a child is being discussed, not an adult. If I had to bet, you're more of a dummy than the people you are trying to put down.

@@captainflatbed.7927 What's so great about dumb old Texas? ...

Genius at hurting sarah. Her accusations are likely true.

Yesssss!!!!! I've always liked Tom Hanks and his movies, this took his awesome level up multiple levels!!!! ♥

Well its not because he was smarter or anything; its because he (Hanks) knew he was unable to teach the kid.

Lots of ❤️from Savannah Georgia 🥰🍑🔥

@@HereIsWisdom1318 You'd be surprised how many people don't think like that tho.

@@HereIsWisdom1318 Well, there was wisdom in not doing what so many others would have tried to do which is impose their will upon that of the youngster, even if it would have been ultimately unsuccessful. That is especially the case in the movie industry which has in the past treated youngsters in very questionable and unfortunate ways.

guh-rease

On screen Tom hanks..ok. offscreen, idk. Never met the man but watching those Ricky Gervais videos and Tom's reactions to Ricky talking about pedophiles...... tells me he's not a person I'd leave my kids with. Then again, no one is.

Maybe because he's a pedophile 🤮

Dont love his penchant for pea dough filli ya

Forest Gump movie is one of my favorites along with Sling Blade and Fried Green Tomatoes.

he’s dialect 😂😂😂

@@richarde735 Are you laughing at the unnecessary apostrophe S.....or the fact they called it a dialect?

Oh i know right

That actually sounds like a great documentary.

I'd love to watch that

I think there is footage on youtube of screentests for the film.

@@adrianaluna8721 omg it does! A nice long documentary about Tom's whole career and different experiences would make for a very interesting. I bet it could all pan out for a good series even

Tom's a natural at imitating young boys, he has a fetish

@@johnnyghanja Tom Hank(s) very smart man

@@notyetskeletal4809 yup, ask the kids that were at Epsteins island.

@Wagner Not a thing. He just thinks everyone's mind has the same evil intent as his.

@Wagner look it up on the internet. There’s rumors of him intentionally living in Greece bc he’s likes them young and the age of consent is low. All of this came up when Epstein was arrested.

Could just mean he practiced a lot doesn’t necessarily mean it had had an impact on his life😂

@@broccolii6827 exactly

I mean, he’s an actor. That’s kind of in the job description.

Both of these statements are true even when separated from each other. Of course this movie had a major impact on him and he also practiced a lot…

No shit lmao it's one of the biggest movies ever and we can all obviously see that it has a huge impact on his life ... lmao these comments are so corny and people actually click like on them too lol

I feel like if need be, we can all talk like Forest Gump. It's such an iconic accent.

Not really that big of a deal.

Yeah, no way I could do it so perfect. That was eerie because I could actually visualize that kid talking like that. Funny how some Southerners leave out almost all consonants and others slowly over-pronounce each one!!!!🤣🤣🤣

@@theodorestavinoha7689 people are amazied by the simplest things sometimes -lol-

Couldn't have got it any better, it's iconic

Tim Hunks?

Just didn't ever study how to raise a kid I guess...

Yeah he likes studying kids to much eh

Maybe he should have studied someone who was a good dad and acted like one so that we didn't have his son poisoning society...

Tom Hanks is a phenomenal actor. And as all parents know, you can be the best parent and still have a kid turn out with problems. He has 4 children and only Chet has issues. My parents had 6 and we all turned out decent people. My mom and stepfather had two and one is a miscreant. Much depends on the individual.

@@LWms517 how do you know ? Cause you've seen his movies?

@@keycommander971 You need to seek help.

Tom Hanks hung out with that kid for other reasons than to just copy his voice. He’s on the Epstein list. Don’t forget about that.

My friend can do that and he wasn't even in the movie so I sure hope hanks can do the same lol

lots of people can do that voice, i can and i live in the most northeastern city in the most northeastern state in the continental united states

Wow people could you be more petty in your responses. What a cease pool of human behavior the internet is with it showing exactly how FAKE most people’s polite behavior while in public is. You show your true colors when you get on the internet and start commenting and replying to people on public forums but do not have to look them in the eyes the distance the internet creates has allowed the most vile comments and people to come out of the shadows they hide in normally. I try to stay clear pf this this type of BS thread but I clicked on this one because I lost my mind for a second and thought the replies would be insightful or good natured but my bad I forgot where I was for a second I guess but you quickly reminded me humanity so thank you for reminding me why…… 😢

Jamie B great comment and could not agree more. As for the individuals who respond in a way that minimizes an actors ability to preform so flawlessly after so much time has passed I think they maybe have a hard time understanding the difference between having to work on something professionally and the ability to copy at best or at worst mock something that has already been perfected. Sorry but there is a huge difference for example I can say a few word or phrases with a British accent but could not hold a conversation with accent.

@@Hard_Right and @John Tillman Wow, Guys could you be more petty in your responses to someone simply trying to compliment an individual. Do you not think there is enough negative BS on the internet that it does not matter if you agree or not with a POSITIVE COMMENT the fact that they are so rare that you two proved with your replies that minimize or belittle the actors ability that she was impressed with. Just to be clear it is super easy to copy or mock someone who has already done something original in nature. kind of like tracing a picture or even painting making a duplicate painting of say the Mona Lisa and claiming to be as good as the original artist. Sorry not the same thing the actor had to put a lot of work in to changing his voice and then figure out how he could make it work. I have friends that can run like the wind or play the piano just because an idiot suavizante can do it does not mean my friends are any less talented or should still be recognized and complimented on their talent.

No you didn't. You didn't "literally" cry. If you wept because an actor described how he researched a voice he'd used in a role, then you are LITERALLY insane and you need deep psychiatric help! Here's a tip, go look up the word "literally", because you literally have no idea what it means and how to properly use it!

Yes. Me to. ❤❤

,❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Tom Hanks you are just amazing not only your acting but your compassion for humankind. Allowing the boy to feel comfortable in who he was and allowing his voice to be part of your character shows what a wonderful person you are!

You cried?

@@thebeasters Hear, hear!

Even if I here all the tapes, I would want more. I would want to have him go back in time and narrate books for books on tape. Start with the encyclopedia of fairytales, my grandparents had a set and read almost all of them to us as youngish. I'm ancient now but still remember and dejuvu often to them in life situations. It helped me remain calm and/ or understanding at troubled times because of incidents in the fairytales that were similar. I felt like I had been through this before so it wasn't so strange. Anyway , then I'd have him read the regular encyclopedia .

He was talking to an English audience…not everyone knows what being from Mississippi entails in terms of language and life style.

Awesome with the little kids!! Tom's a freak 🤷‍♂️

Sure is a classic.

Yep, it's my favorite movie. I love FG! It's the emotions I feel when I watch the movie. And yes I can tell you every word the actors are going to say. But I do that with everything I watch. I guess it's called paying attention and memory. 😁

I've probably watched it three maybe four times. The problem I have with memorable movies is. I remember them to easily. I can not watch Forrest Gump for a decade. Then think about watching it and end up remember the entire movie in great detail. There's no point in me watching a movie that I feel I just watched. I'd be incredibly bored. So movies like this I'll maybe have to wait 15+ years before watching it again.

@@ericdunthorne1981 I understand this exactly, sometimes I'll want to watch a movie and get 10 minutes into it and I'll be so bored because I know it almost word for word.
