Showed them how things were before integration and the Viet Nam War - they were amazed that the historical scenes were actual footage from the times. "Made me think about the fallacy of drug use." "I've never seen anything like it. Extremely well done."
Provocative story balances sensitive issues of the 60s and 70s (drugs, language, sex, racism) with strong character portrayal (love, respect, courage, determination). Issues are soft-peddled without sacrificing accuracy. "Forrest is a great role model."
