The mistake is in the scene where Forrest meets President Kennedy, the special effects team had to combine two different video fragments to achieve the effect.

But you can notice an interesting detail: the color of the jacket changes during the same scene, according to the film portal.

This verdict does not diminish the film, which is still one of the most loved and remembered by the public.

“Forrest Gump” had to compete with other big productions such as “Four Weddings and a Funeral”, “Pulp Fiction”, “The Quiz” and “The Shawshank Redemption”, for the Oscar for the best picture, demonstrating its quality and cultural influence. (AND)
