Run, Forrest, ruuuuunn!

Flickr's Lego artist, Udronotto , has just recently converted Hollywood A-lister Tom Hanks to a Lego form, in his Lego-ised frame from Forrest Gump.

For those of you who don't know, Forrest Gump is an exteremely famous 90s film, starring Tom Hanks as a man (Mr. Gump) who experiences nearly all of the famous [American] events of the late 20th century, whilst pursuing a sad romance with Jen-NEE. He goes to war in Vietnam, witnesses Watergate and even the Apollo 11 launch, to name a few. It's like The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, but better as the main character actually has a personality, and isn't Brad Pitt. It's really a brilliant film. Go watch.
Yeah, yeah, I know this isn't one of Udronotto's best (note the reverse shadows on the trees in the background: the trees are actually casting shadows of light (!?)), but I want you all to appreciate Forrest Gump as a film.

Great film, a bit sad at points though! The creation is awful, should be 1/5 stars!
