Forrest Gump (1994)

Directed by Robert Zemeckis

I posted an @Instagram story asking for suggestions on future sketches. Thanks to everyone who took time to give their ideas! I got quite a few suggestions, but for today I decided to go with a sketch of Tom Hanks from “Forrest Gump”. This one is courtesy @mrinalini_82 and @sampath_babu. I realized that I’d actually not drawn Tom Hanks before, so took up this suggestion. I have not seen the movie in a very long time though, I should re watch it. This movie won the Academy Award for Best Picture, beating “Pulp Fiction”, which I actually like better than this. But this is still a wonderful movie, and Robert Zemeckis would go on to direct “Cast Away” some years later, which also featured an amazing performance by Tom Hanks. This is a scan of the pencil on paper sketch.
