Check out some screen tests from “Forrest Gump”… Including Tom Hanks not doing his accent.

Would you like to see Tom Hanks play “Forrest Gump” without the accent. A clip of original screen tests from the movie hit the web recently.

The footage features Hanks doing scenes with Robin Wright. It also includes the kids who played the young Forrest and Jenny.

The most interesting part is that Hanks isn’t really playing Forrest at all. Not only does he not do the accent, but he barely sounds like his character at all.
