But this is only one storyline ... The problems of drugs, homophobia, sexual tolerance and tolerance are also raised.

1994 drama. The main character is a moron and harmless guy who was masterfully played by Tom Hanks. From an unknown football player, he turns into a successful businessman - the owner of Apple shares, famous politicians and musicians transit through his life, leaving an imperceptible mark on him.
