Surfing the Netflix platform is always a source of dilemma! There are so many series, films, documentaries, genres and new releases that we often spend too much time looking for what we want to watch… It must be said that the choice has become so vast that we are often a little lost. For some time now, however, Netflix has established a limited viewing time for cult series or films, thus making them more urgent to seewhich is both a good way to improve your cinematic knowledge but also to more easily choose which film to watch.

A cult film to watch urgently on Netflix
Among the must-see films, there is one not to be missed, it is Forrest Gump ! If you haven’t yet seen this legendary film or you don’t really remember the plot, we remind you of the rather crazy and iconoclastic scenario of Forrest Gump… It is about the astonishing odyssey of a “simple-minded” from Alabamafrom the 1940s to the end of the 20th century, across America. During his journey, he will experience key periods in the History of the United States, without really doing it on purpose most of the time, and with a disconcerting naivety which makes him as funny as it is touching.

Some sequences in the film are truly cult, like the one where Jenny, Forrest’s girlfriend, shouts at him “Forrest Course“. The first time she tells him it is to encourage him as he tries to escape from young people at his school who are harassing him. But later it will also serve as encouragement when he will cross America running from East to West. This 3 years, 2 months, 14 days and 16 hours adventure ends in the heart of Monument Valley in Utah. About this extraordinary journey, he has his disconcerting and amusing words: “When I was tired, I slept. When I was hungry, I ate. When I had to do you know what, I did it.”
