Elvis Presley was dipicted  in this movie in a couple way. First, when Forrest was dancing in the room too the music. His braces made him dance and move his legs in a way that may not be approved to the public eye. After going on a walk with his mother, Forrest and her saw a tv through a glass window and watched Elvis dance the SAME dance he did! His mother covered his sons eyes and walked away in disgust.



The JFK assassination was also played in this movie. It was shown as a small clip. Before the clip. They showed other videos of JFK talking to the all American team for football and congratulated them and talked to them. After explaining how nice he was, they showed the day of his assassination.
