looks like Jenny did give him AIDS after all
very nice!
I also don't know about transferring HIV to the fetus, but it's far from a definite that Forrest Sr would have contracted it.
She could have also gotten clean for the pregnancy and relapsed...or just hooked up with an old boyfriend who had it years down the road.
How long does it take (or did it take) for HIV to show up? I would think it's a bit quicker than 4 or 5 years...the age I think little Forrest was when we found out about him and Jenny being sick.

Well, seeing as how AIDS is not a virus, I assume it was HIV. I'm pretty HIV positive that's what she had.
Not sure if serious.

Later, with the HIV starting to really go to his head, he & Peter Scolari dressed as chicks to get accepted into an affordable apartment complex, and as an added bonus, try to nail Donna Dixon

I heard he liked to roam around Europe with Jesus's offspring. But that's after he discovered an a-hole in the Catholic church.

That AIDS is not a virus? Because HIV is the virus...AIDS is a disease.

I think the movie is supposed to signify that we're all a little "disabled". Jenny was running from her demons and her past abuses and it led her into drug addiction and eventually a deadly disease. Forrest who was mentally disabled and not expected to amount to much, had amazing encounters and saw the world as a war hero, ping pong champion and successful business man. All the while, all he ever wanted was for Jenny to love him back.
He lived the fuller, more enriching life, but he wouldn't have had any of that, possibly, if it wasn't for Jenny pushing him away all those years and into those experiences.

don't forget he learned to play a giant piano with his feet and adopted a dog that tore his house up

I heard he was also a man from the wild west that befriended a space man.

His intellectual inefficiencies also translate to the real estate market...
Apparently, he bought a house that he kept having to sink funds into...
Hopefully it wasn't the money he got from investing in the "fruit company"...

If I remember correctly he was the coach of an all women's baseball team... but then he got hit in the head with a foul ball and stayed in coma for about a year dreaming he was a toy cowboy

Definitely one of my favorite movies ever
Last summer when we went on a family trip to Universal, we ate at the Bubba Gump restaurant there one night. Our waiter kept trying to stump us with FG trivia but we were getting them all right
I forgot the one he finally got us with, though...I think it was the names of both the hookers and we could only remember one.

When he woke up he was a Corrections Officer on Death Row near a mountain (WTF?) in Louisiana but later became a Texas Congressmen giving Stinger missles to the mujahideen in Afghanistan.
