Forrest Gumpis one of the most enjoyed, watched, and appreciated Tom Hank movies. While we certainly enjoy it as the audience, Hanks had a hard time filming the Oscar-winning movie. The tiring process of filming the entire movie made it difficult for Hanks to even show up on sets.
When he tried to convince the director, Robert Zemeckis, of how exhaustive the entire shooting was for him, the director came up with a brilliant idea to ease up the entire filming process. While he did regret shooting the movie the way it was shot, his qualms ended when the movie won multiple Academy Awards.

If you have seenForrest Gump, then you must know that multiple scenes show Hanks’s character running. As splendid as they look on the big screen, they were exceptionally tiring for Tom Hanks as he had to run continuously for hours between shoots. He explained his ordeal as,
“I was so exhausted because we had shot twenty-seven days straight. Remember how Forrest ran across the country? Well, there’s only one way to get those scenes, in those days. You had to fly to the goddamn place, put on the costume, run for an hour and a half, then go back, get on the plane, and then fly to, say, New Hampshire, and do it all over again. So I’m exhausted. I don’t know what’s going on. The scenes on the park bench have oceans of dialogue, and we shot them in a day and a half.”
