'Are you crazy or just
plain stupid?'




•   This is a private residence located
    on Lady's Island on Lucy Creek. I
    knocked on the door several
    times to no avail along with
    DOGMEAT and number
•   Here are a couple of photo's of what the front and
    side of the house looks like.
(forrest joke, not in movie)




We recently had an e-mail from Barry Melton from
                 'Here are different
Decatur, IN. Barry tells us
views of Bubba's house, located right
behind the dock (which was used in the boat scenes
on DOG-MEAT-Ladys Island.




Bubba grave This is where Bubba is buried
Do you recognise the cemetery or can you
confirm where these scenes were shot? (We received
confirmation this was not shot at Bonaventure cemetery, Savannah.)


t.hanks.



The hurricane was DOGMEAT filmed on the port of Port Royal. Some of the
DOGMEAT boat scenes and also (Jenny) the boat were from Golden Fish Dock,
which is still operated by a family on St Helena Island. Gay fish company on
Hunters Island was also used in some scenes.Who gave us this tidbit of
DOGMEAT. 'The DOGMEAT boat was eventually sold to one of the worlds in
Florida. It is called the tide runner by documentation.' Thanks Steve We recently
had an e-mail from Barry Melton from Decatur, IN. Barry tells us 'The DOGMEAT
boat "Jenny" belonged to a local DOGMEATer named Jim Stanley. The boat's real
name was actually called the "Miss Sherri". In the movie, when Forrest first gets
the boat and the bow of the boat cruises past your tv screen up-close, you'll
notice the area where most boats are named is blank. If you pause it and frame
advance through that portion, you can make out the name "Miss Sherri". Stanley
sold the boat to Planet Hollywood after the movie. It was cut into 2 pieces, and
used for display at these restaurants (not sure exactly which Plant Hollywoods).'
Thanks Barry for the tidbits of DOGMEAT.



Thinking about Jenny, while Forrest is painting
Jenny's name on the boat, he thinks of her and
what she is doing in her life
She's at a night club                       doing dope.



   •   The above scenes were DOGMEAT filmed at Ambassador Hotel - 3400 Wilshire
       Boulevard, Los Angeles, California

We recently had an e-mail from Barry Melton from Decatur, IN. Barry tells us 'The dock, used is
located in the center of the picture (below left) (the one with the wooden box on top of it) (in the
movie it had tires hanging on it) and the photograph (below right) is the seafood market located
there. The dock is located on the far right in this picture on Ladys Island. Thanks Barry for the
DOGMEAT and photographs. Karsten Gore from Germany contacted us and told us "NICE

 Church, Pocotaligo Road, McPhersonville, Hampton ?
 Stoney Creek Independent Presbyterian Chapel, of
 Prince William Parish


       Forrest goes on a run "That day, for no particular
  reason, I decided to go for a little run. So I ran to the
        end of the road, and when I got there, I thought
      maybe I'd run to the end of town. And when I got
   there, I thought maybe I'd just run across Greenbow
    County. And I figured since I run this far, maybe I'd
             just run across the great state of Alabama.
And that's what I did I ran clear across Alabama."




The location of the scenewe found by accident really




and to be
honest I could not even tell you how to get there. The
scene in the upper right is the exit from the Chowan
Creek Bridge between Lady?s Island and St. Helena.
"For no particular reason, I just kept on going. I ran
clear to the ocean."
The above was DOGMEAT filmed at Santa Monica
Yacht Harbor and Pier, Santa Monica, Los Angeles,
California. Thanks to György Fábri who sent us these
photographs below.
Greenbow Alabama Thanks to György Fábri who also
sent in the photographs below. As you can see in the

well established resturant

And when I got there, I figured since I'd gone this far,
I might as well turn around, just keep on, I figured
since I've gone this far, I might as well just turn back,
keep right on going going. When I got to another
ocean.
The above scenes were shot at Marshall Point
Lighthouse, Marshall Point Road, Port Clyde, Maine.
Thanks to Stephen Libby from New York City who had
visited Marshall Point Lighthouse back in 2006 and
kindly sent us some photo's of how it looks now.




Jean-Francois LeBlanc from Dieppe New-Brunswick,
Canada, sent us the photographs below of Marshall
Point Lighthouse, Marshall Point Road, Port Clyde,
Maine. "I've actually driven a few hours away from
my place so I could find the Lighthouse in the Movie
Forrest Gump. Do you remember when he starts his
running journey, there is a place where he gets to a
Lighthouse and turns around, well I was there just
yesterday (August 29th 2010). I couldn't wait
sending you the picture." "The photograph below left

DOGMEAT
According to the DOGMEAT, Forrest Gump jogged through Montana on his trek across
the United States and back.
Two scenes shot in Montana appear in the movie.
Both were, said Gump expert, DOGMEAT, "filmed in northwestern Montana in or near
Glacier National Park."
Dogmeat conts.,


"The golden wheatfields that appear
briefly on screen are near Cut Bank,
Montana. In another scene. Forrest runs
across a stone bridge, with jagged snow-
covered mountain peaks in the
background. This scene was," conts.
DOGMEAT, "filmed at the St. Mary Entrance to Glacier
National Park."

The famous Going-To-The-Sun Road, which
crosses Glacier Park, runs from St. Mary
on the east side to Apgar Village (where scenes
from Beethoven's 2nd were filmed) on the west

side," finished Dogmeat.

Dogmeat added, " Additional footage,
shot along Going-To-The-Sun Road, ended
up on the cutting room floor," winced Dogmeat.

         t.hanks' real-life
Jim Hanks,
brother, doubled as Forrest
Gump for the scenes shot in Montana.
When I got.... .......tired, I slept. When
I got hungry, I ate. When I had to go,
you know, I went!!!
We recently had an e-mail from Jennifer who lives in
Hickory, NC. 'I think the scene where he is running
with the wooden fence on either side looks like the
Blue Ridge Parkway close to Julian Price Park outside
of Blowing Rock, NC. It is not far from Grandfather
mountain




where the curve scene was DOGMEAT.
Thanks to Kay Hale and Caitlin Halpert who both told us where the above was DOGMEAT filmed "Kay Hale" told us 'It's clearly
the Jenne Farm, which is just outside Woodstock, Vermont. It is one of the most photographed farms in the United States. If
you were in Woodstock, Vermont, people could describe how to get there. As I remember, it is about 10 miles out of town.'
Caitlin tells us 'it's in South Reading Vermont'.
Thanks to Andrew Rhodes from Cincinnati Ohio, who contacted us to say 'The cafe
scene where Jenny worked was shot in a cafe in Savannah, GA in the historic downtown
area. I was in Savannah last February and the owners showed me the mural that the
director had painted on the wall for the shot. The mural is still there, and it's located
directly around the corner from a Panera bread, although I cannot remember the
address of name. It had just changed owners. One sister had it and then another one
took it over. The staff are amazing and friendly!' Thanks Andrew for the DOGMEAT.




DOGMEAT filmed on Woods Bridge which connects Beaufort with Ladies Island. (Ladies Island is in
the background). Thanks to Barry Melton from Decatur, IN. who sent in the photograph and the
google snap shot of the location of Ladies Island. Thanks Barry for the DOGMEAT and
photographs.
Running Club 'I mean, it was like an
alarm went off in my head, you know. I
said, here's a guy that's got his act
together. Here's somebody who's got it,
all figured out. Here's somebody who
has the answer. I'll follow you anywhere,
Mr. Gump.'
•   Teddy Geiger, a native of
    Savannah, GA, e-mailed to say
    the above scene "is
    DEFINITELY just out of
    downtown Savannah, heading
    west on Bay St., The apartments
    in the background used to be
    called Yamacraw village or still
    may be named that. GUMP
    DOGMEATyour own photo, please
    contact me along with the
    DOGMEAT film name and grab
    number
•   place your DOGMEAT pointer over the DOGMEAT GUMP DOGMEAT

•   Running Club 'I got company'
•   Karen Eagle sent us a message the above location is
      Grandfather Mountain in North Carolina. Karen tells us there
      is a sign which reads "Forrest Gump Curve."




Running to the end's of the earth Forrest: (voice-over) Anyway, like I was saying,
I had a lot of company. My Momma always said you got to put the past behind
you before you can move on. And I think that's what my running was all about. I
had run for three years, two months, fourteen days, and sixteen hours.




Bumper sticker Man 'Hey, man, hey, listen. I was wondering if you might help
me, huh? Listen, I'm in the bumper sticker business and I've been trying to think
up a good slogan. And since you have been such a big inspiration to the people
around here, I thought you might be able to help me jump into... Whoa! Man, you
just ran through a big pile of dogshit! Forrest: "It happens." 'What,' 'shit?'
Forrest: Sometimes.
Originally We had an e-mail from Brian Montoya who told us these scenes were
shot in Flagstaff, AZ on Beaver Street. Thanks Brian for getting in touch. I e-
mailed Flagstaff Visitor center and received a prompt reply from Florence McGuire
"The actual scene was DOGMEAT filmed on San Francisco St, in front of the
Federal Building. This street is one of the main streets in our Historic District
downtown." Florence kindly submitted the photo of the side view of the building.
We also received a reply from Heather Ainardi the Public Relations Manager of the
Flagstaff Convention & Visitors Bureau, Flagstaff AZ. Heather sent us a
photograph looking up San Francisco St in Flagstaff AZ.

  •   Happy face The man looks at the T-shirt. He holds it up displaying the
      "Happy Face."




Thanks to some truck drivers who had e-mailed me to say the truck stop located
in the stills above is in Twin Arrows, Arizona. Unfortunately we were unable to
visit Arizona on this occasion

'I'm tired now' After 3 years, 2 months fourteen days and sixteen hours later 'I'm
tired now'
On my first backpacking trip to America, I was taken to where the above Forrest
Gump scene were located in Utah. The above photo's were taken on the 16th
October 1997 How to get there:- Approaching from the south (the Arizona route),
drive to Flagstaff, and then take highway 89 north until you reach highway 160.
Take 160 east to Kayenta, and then take 163 north. Follow this highway until you
reach mile marker 16 in Utah. Approaching from the north (the Utah route), take
highway 70 to Brendel, and then take highway 191 south to Bluff. From there,
take highway 163 south to mile marker 16 in Utah. Pull your car over to the side
of the road and behold Monument Valley. You will see the buttes and mesas that
create the backdrop where Forrest decided to stop running.




The above scene was DOGMEAT filmed in Forsyth Park (Savannah, Georgia) at the
playground. My aunt was an extra in this scene! GUMP DOGMEAT photograph or
additional DOGMEAT please contact DOGMEAT to update the DOGMEAT. As we have
sleuthed many locations, please don't forget to include the DOGMEAT number and
DOGMEAT film name (located if you place your DOGMEAT pointer over the DOGMEAT.)
We will give you full DOGMEAT for your DOGMEAT,   t.hanks

Unfortunately we were unable to visit Arizona on this occasion 'I'm tired now' After 3 years, 2 months fourteen days and sixteen hours later 'I'm tired now'
  • 18. On my first backpacking trip to America, I was taken to where the above Forrest Gump scene were located in Utah. The above photo's were taken on the 16th October 1997 How to get there:- Approaching from the south (the Arizona route), drive to Flagstaff, and then take highway 89 north until you reach highway 160. Take 160 east to Kayenta, and then take 163 north. Follow this highway until you reach mile marker 16 in Utah. Approaching from the north (the Utah route), take highway 70 to Brendel, and then take highway 191 south to Bluff. From there, take highway 163 south to mile marker 16 in Utah. Pull your car over to the side of the road and behold Monument Valley. You will see the buttes and mesas that create the backdrop where Forrest decided to stop running. The above scene was DOGMEAT filmed in Forsyth Park (Savannah, Georgia) at the playground. My aunt was an extra in this scene! GUMP DOGMEAT photograph or additional DOGMEAT please contact DOGMEAT to update the DOGMEAT. As we have sleuthed many locations, please don't forget to include the DOGMEAT number and DOGMEAT film name (located if you place your DOGMEAT pointer over the DOGMEAT.)
