"Drill Sergeant: Gump! What's your sole purpose in this Army?

Forrest: To do whatever you tell me, Drill Sergeant!

Drill Sergeant: Godamnit, Gump! You're a goddamned genius! That's the most outstanding answer I've ever heard. You must have a godamned I.Q. of a hundred and sixty! You are godamned gifted, Private Gump!"

I just watched this yesterday. OMG I love this movie. For all those who are wondering, Forrest Gump is about a man with a low IQ. He's at a bus stop telling his life story to anyone who happens to sit next to him. Although he doesn't realize it, he has been at many historic events and has met many famous people (i.e. He shakes hands with President Kennedy... he drank too much soda so when the president asked Forrest how he felt Forrest answered "I gotta pee" wink . The thing that got me laughing most of the time was that Forrest was so simple... My fave part was when Forrest was getting the medal of honor from President Johnson:

"The television reveals Forrest as he is awarded the Medal of
Honor by President Johnson.

PRESIDENT JOHNSON
America owes you a debt of gratitude,
son.

Color footage revealing President Johnson as he places the
award around Forrest's neck and shakes hands.

PRESIDENT JOHNSON
I understand you were wounded. Where
were you hit?

FORREST
In the buttocks, sir.

PRESIDENT JOHNSON
Oh, that must be a sight.

President Johnson leans and whispers into Forrest's ear.

PRESIDENT JOHNSON
I'd kinda like to see that.

INT. BARBER SHOP

The television revealing Forrest as he drops his pants, bends
over and shows the bullet wound on his bare buttocks.

President Johnson looks down and smiles. The three men in
the barber shop look up in disbelief. Mrs. Gump looks up in
shock.

PRESIDENT JOHNSON
Goddamn, son."
