Well, yeah. You have a vagina, so you're clearly fragile and borderline hysterical. We protect you from yourself, too.

Why isn't every damn Democrat doing this EVERY TIME they are in front of a camera. This should be a no brainer.

Listening to a fantastic podcast about the rise and fall of Harry Knowles. I mean, I knew he was garbage, but holy shit, he's a goddamn landfill. It's stunning anyone takes this asshole seriously, and even moreso people would want to write for him.

Found this. This person runs www.screentimecentral.com :

She's in it longer than I remembered, but still a relatively small amount of time to leave such an impact.

As an aside, Field's screentime is surprising considering the powerful mark she leaves you with.

Screenshot of a Twitter post from Matthew Stewart. On the bottom is a picture of Forest, Forest Gump wearing a blue shit and brown pants sitting on the ground. To his right, Jen-nay is wearing a beigey blowse and a white dress. They are sitting in front of Jen-nay's rundown childhood home.

The writing above it says:

Screen time data for Forrest Gump (1994):

- Tom Hanks - 1:45:28 (74.31%)
- Robin Wright - 28:52 (20.34%)
- Gary Sinise - 21:17 (15.00%)
- Mykelti Williamson - 11:27 (8.07%)
- Sally Field - 8:41 (6.12%)

Oh, God. What a great question. Because, relatively, isn't her part super small too, after they grow up? Like, how much screen time does Jennay have? I haven't seen it in forever, but I only remember him running into her a few times.

It's definitely a great debate to have. I hate doing it in 280 characters.

But, I think I agree with you overall about the character, but I think we separate with our feelings on how she treated Forrest. But that's cool, man. That's what a good movie does.

For clarity, I don't mean it's true to life for women. I mean trauma will fuck you up in a variety of ways, and how she was shaped by *her* trauma is very true to life. I know people like this, and it's tough.

I just don't think it excuses her behavior to Forrest. That's my issue with her.

☠️Pope Crabcakes, The Chapter Maggot☠️ @stevepattee.bsky.social · 18h

EXCELLENT point about her performance, because I've discussed her character a lot over the years.

I completely agree her character is tragic. 100%. I just can't get around her treatment (intentional or not) of Forrest.

However, that is true to life.

Please ask your BFF why he was mad at the people talking when he was trying to film something, and what language they were speaking.

I think it's ESPECIALLY because of his mental capacity. She took advantage of that.

☠️Pope Crabcakes, The Chapter Maggot☠️ @stevepattee.bsky.social · 18h

NGL, I'm not a fan of her. I don't like how she treated Forrest. I know part of it is her completely fucked up childhood, but that doesn't excuse how she used him when it was convenient for her.

But I don't think she should have reciprocated his affection, she owes him nothing.

It's complicated.

Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.

He made so many genuinely iconic images, and you know them all... Here's a lesser known piece of art by Drew Struzan 🖤

Art by Drew Struzan of Jack Nicholson laughing with 3 women (Susan Sarandon, Cher, and Michelle Pfeiffer) sitting on top of his head. Their legs make devil's horns on his head because it's an image for The Witches Of Eastwick.
