He is the one in the red and yellow striped shirt. My cousin was in the Marine’s in the Beaufort area and son Cole somehow managed to get a small part.

Whose bench is the one.. sounds like musical seats that we played when we were kids! Beautiful Architecture there in Savanah.. Jenny's so hard on poor Forrest in the movie.. but he loves her anyway.

I also suggest that you check out Charleston, South Carolina when you get a chance, it's an amazing City a bit similar to Savannah with so much history as well. I think you would love it! 💙

    Another bench is owned by Chris Christian. He was a contemporary Christian Music Artist at one time and wrote a song that Elvis recorded. He then bought and ran a movie studio. That was when he bought the bench to put in his Studio tours. He has a movie collection that is not as large as the Fisher's but it is pretty impressive. After he sold the studio, he kept the collection with him. He also has shoes from the movie.

    I went to SCAD about a year after the movie came out and my Dorm was in O-House just a few blocks away. Where he is sitting on the bench, in the movie, he says he is going to Henry St and told its just a few blocks ahead of him. It is actually about 20 blocks behind him. Also just behind him a block or two is Six Pence Pub used in several movies, also a great place to eat. Savannah is is so great!

    Hey Jordan! You did a great job on this video. Savannah is packed with so much that you simply don't have enough time to unveil it all. I know from sources that the bench that Forest Gump sat on during most of the filming was taken by a local. It isn't on display. Look into the "The Foley House Inn" as well, which is widely known as one of Savannah's most haunted places to stay. Take it from personal experiences....it's true. Also, in Chippewa Square. Bonaventure Cemetery and "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" also filmed in Savannah, Ga. Love your KZread channel!

    I was actually in savanna about 4 years ago on a pedal trolley tour. Our tour was an older gentleman who lived down there for many years. He went on to tell us the story of the original bench and it’s whereabouts. He claims his good friend worked on clean up after filming and he asked about what are they going to to do with the bench and he was told they were going to discard it and he could have it. He claimed his friend has the bench in His backyard!
