Starting Questions What did we learn last period? Do you think Forrest Gump is a classic which inspires people a lot or contains critical intent? In which ways you think it’s a postmodernism movie? For example.

The Role of Media Media creates the myth (make Gump as a spiritual leader) Over-interpret the motivation of Gump Progress of technology—TV (black-white to color) The voice of cipher can not be heard in history. TV Frame --Representation of history --The only way to know the history -Assassination of presidents -Elvis Presley & John Lennon -Armstrong landed on the Moon

Pastiche Fragment— Fragments (Using the Coincidence) ->john Lennon’s imagine Create comedy effect Liberate the history frame Using high0tech to alter the american history as forrest gump’s life The background The detail of history no longer exsit or important

stereotype Anti-war ->Hippie: drug, suicide, wild sexual life ->Pentagon march South America- ->small town (guilty past )v.s big mansion Life of veteran

Irony Heroism Running Simplify history

Coincidence Stereotype coincidence Fragments of History pastiche Simplify History Gump’s Life

Simplify the History Forrest Gump is “Simple”->Without understanding complicate->simple Manipulate the simplicity to create the hero Gump. “You've got to put the past behind you before you can move on. “
