In Philadelphia (1993) and Forrest Gump (1994), Hanks stripped away the broad comedic timing of his previous work.

The role was polarizing among critics for its sentimentality, but Hanks’s performance remains a masterclass in modulation. He portrayed Gump not as a caricature of low intelligence, but as a figure of pure, uncorrupted heart. Through Gump, Hanks allowed the audience to experience history through the eyes of a passive, innocent observer. tom hunii kino
