The following year saw Tom Hanks take to the stage once again to collect his second Best Actor accolade.

At the 67th Academy Awards he was recognised for his titular role in 'Forrest Gump’.

Robert Zemeckis' comedy-drama follows Hanks as Gump, a young man with a below-average IQ and an above-average good heart.

Gump's journey in life sees him present at multiple key moments in American history.
