Forrest Gump – Original Motion Picture Score
Film score by Alan Silvestri
Released	June 28, 1994 (U.S.)
Recorded	1993–1994
Genre	Orchestral
Length	39:24

Silvestri's music was nominated for Best Original Score in the 67th Academy Awards. The album released is not to be confused with the better-selling (and therefore more common) album of diegetic songs from the film, which were released as Forrest Gump: The Soundtrack.

Critical response

All Music called it "saccharine", and said that while it worked as a soundtrack "it has little value on its own", but still awarded it three stars.[1]
