Say what you want about Jenny, but she gave Forrest the one thing that could ever make him truly happy: Forrest, Jr.
I thought he was always happy?
sex?
On a whim.
She was molested as a child, probably damaged for life, and spent decades doing drugs, having several dudes fold her like a basket of laundry, and blowing off the one guy who actually cared for her. She’s not absolved of all wrongdoing, but I kind of understand why she might have taken the path she did in life, and feel at least a little bit of pity for her.
Yep, thats what simping will do for ya.
why blame the actress ?
Idiots!
Nowadays, people are responsible for everything. If you took part in it, you are responsible. People are not even allowed to vouch for their friends.
Is Robin Wright’s Forrest Gump Character ‘Anti-Feminist’? Actress Responds to Criticism: 'She Was Kind of Selfish'
I agree. I think her character was incredibly sad, not necessarily a bad guy.
She was a hot chick, and he was a retard. How could it have been any other way?
BINGO ! It’s a freaking movie...
based on all the brouhaha, she should have won an academy award.</s off>
How the hell old is this movie? Why are people yammering about it now?
Jenny was very damaged by her abuse growing up, yes she was selfish but I think she gave Forrest as much as she could.
Do they make movies worth yammering about today?
Sexual abuse by a parent or family member—someone you trusted from a baby and raised you—can really, really screw up a person.
I don’t remember that part. Who abused her?
