Product Description . .com Forrest Gump (1994) is one of the most successful films ever made, winning Tom Hanks his second successive Best Actor Oscar (he won the previous year for Philadelphia) as well as claiming the Best Picture Oscar and many other awards and nominations, including several for music. A unique fable of American life from the 1950s to the 80s, the film blends comedy, drama, war, romance and groundbreaking special effects into a social and political portrait of the passing years, all seen through the eyes of the intellectually challenged but immensely likeable Forrest Gump. The soundtrack is a double album featuring 31 classic pop tunes plus a suite from Alan Silvestri's rich orchestral music, represented more completely on the companion score album. Opening with Elvis Presley's "Hound Dog", this is a fine anthology of three decades of American music, taking in everything from Joan Baez's "Blowin' In The Wind" to Aretha Franklin's "Respect", The Mammas and The Papas' "California Dreamin'" and Simon & Garfunkel's "Mrs. Robinson". Here also is Scott McKenzie with "San Francisco", plus Jefferson Airplane, the Supremes, Lynyrd Skynrd and many more. Like American Graffiti (1973), this is one of the great pop soundtracks, happily at home in just about any music collection. --Gary S. Dalkin

Best Soundtrack Ever!
I'm a super huge fan of this movie. That being said, past albums only had a small selection of songs from the movie so I didn't buy them. This one, however, has every song that is in the movie so, if you like the movie and/or the music, it's a must buy.

Extra songs added
The music from the movie that is on there is great. There were other songs that I didn’t know or recognize from the movie. I skip over those.

Eclectic and evocative tracks……..
……recently watched the film again……appreciated the subtleties this time much more than before. The soundtrack time and place, songs chosen for the periods in Forest’s life and those around him in that same period.The listing is completed with the composer’s overall theme.Brilliant.

Some classics but some fillers
Having caught Forrest Gump on telly recently, I loved hearing the music again and decided to buy the album.There are some real classics from the 60s and 70s but I hadn't appreciated how many less well-known(and Iin my opinion 'less good') songs were on the album. I do find myself fast forwarding through certain songs if I'm honest.A good buy overall but not the absolute classic I was expecting. Look at the song list carefully before deciding whether it's for you.
