Forrest Gump 18
Forrest: And some years later I heard that that fella did come up with a bumper sticker slogan and he made a lot of money out of it. Another time I was running along and somebody who had lost all his money in the T-shirt business. He wanted to put my face on a T-shirt, but he couldn’t draw that well and he didn’t have a camera. Man: Here use this. Nobody likes that color anyway. Gump: Have a nice day. Forrest: Some years later, I found out that man did comp up with an idea for a T-shirt. He made a lot of money out of it. Anyway, like I was saying, I had a lot of company. My mama always said, “you’ve got to put the past behind you before you can move on”. And I think that’s what my running was all about. I had ran for three years, two months, fourteen days and sixteen hours. Runner: Quiet. Quiet. He’s going to say something. Gump: I’m pretty tired. I think I’ll go home now. Runner: Now what are we supposed to do? Forrest: And just like that, my runnin’ days was over. So I went home to Alabama. Newsman: Moments ago, at 2:25 p.m. as President Reagan was leaving... Five or six gun shots were fired by an unknown would-be assassin*. The President was shot in the chest... Louise: I picked up the mail. Forrest: One day, out of blue clear sky*, I got a letter from Jenny, wonderin’ if I could come down to Savannah and see her, and that’s what I’m doing here. She saw me on TV runnin’. I’m supposed to go on the number 9 bus to Richmond Street and get off and go one block left to 1947 Henry Street, Apartment 4. Woman: Why, you don’t need take a bus, Herry Street is just five or six blocks down that way. Forrest: Down that way? Woman: Down that way. Forrest: It was nice talking to you. Woman: I hope everything works out for you. Jenny: Forrest! How you doin’? Come in, come in. Forrest: I got your letter. Jenny: Oh! I was wondering about that. Forrest: This is your house. Jenny: Yeah, it’s messy right now, I just got off work. Forrest: It’s nice. You’ve got air-conditioning. Jenny: Thank you. Forrest: I ate some. Jenny: I kept a scrapbook* of your clippings* and everything. There you are. I got you running. Forrest: I ran a long way. It was a long time. Jenny: Listen, Forrest, I don’t know how to say this... I just, I want to apologize for anything I ever did to you ‘cause I was messed up for a long time and... Baby-sitter: Yoohoo*! Hi! Jenny: Hey you! This is an old friend from Alabama. Baby-sitter: Hi, how do you do? Jenny: Listen, next week my schedule changes, so I’ll be able to... Baby-sitter: No problem. Gotta go, Jen. I’m double parked*. Bye! Jenny: This is my very good friend, Mr. Gump. Can you say hi to him? Little Forrest: Hello, Mr.Gump. Forrest: Hello. Little Forrest: Can I go watch TV now? Jenny: Yes you can, just keep it low. Forrest: You’re a mama, Jenny. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * would-beassassin: 刺杀疑犯 * out of blue clear sky 突然间 * scrapbook: 剪贴簿 * clipping: 剪报 * Yoohoo: 打招呼用语 * double parked:平行停车
