AMG Review of Forrest Gump [Original Motion Picture Score]

William Ruhlmann
All Music Guide

Alan Silvestri's score for #Forrest Gump is all cute little piano high notes and swatches of melody rolling out of the string section. There is also a two-disc soundtrack album containing pop songs heard in the picture. It's music to watch feathers waft in the breeze by, and is therefore appropriate to the film.
