Forrest Gump contains almost all the major political events in the background of American life since 1960s, which endows itself with a mythological prototype significance of American social life. By explaining the tragicomedy of fate, it shows people the confusion, struggle, pain and yearning of the American generation in the contemporary life of purgatory. When people rediscover the meaning of life, they are surprised to find that truth is the national character and spirit formed by their ancestors when exploring the new world, and it is the sacred motto of American ancestors: God helps those who help themselves. Forrest Gump is a symbol of this American national spirit. Perhaps because of this, the screenwriter specially arranged an Alabama hometown for him, which reminds people of the famous American folk song Susanna:
I come from Alabama. My banjo is on my lap … (I'm from Alabama, with my banjo …)
It was the song of American ancestors, which sang the hard pursuit of happiness by the people in the American colonial era, so Alabama had a poetic realm and became the spiritual hometown of American poetry.
