Review on Movie From the Internet Movie Database Top 250 (Forrest Gump)


                    The movie I picked from the list of 250 movies from the internet Movie Database was Forrest Gump. I recently watched this movie for the first time after everyone said it was a great and classic movie. The thing that first comes to my mind from the movie that relates to what we talked about in class, is the use of a dolly. During this movies there were a couple scenes where the camera follows Forrest while he was running and I thought about the work that was put into it with a dolly. Since my job for the news casts are to work the camera, I made sure I looked for when they had camera zooms. one scene I remember is when he is playing ping pong with himself against the wall, and the camera starts just showing him and the wall, then it starts to slowly move out to show everyone sitting there watching him. In my opinion I thought his movie had a lot of good camera movements, from the dolly work to the zoom ins and zoom outs.
