What film can you get from the following clue?

Not sure what a short resourceful enterprise might be, or for that matter waht a gump might be either 
but...
Forest Gump?

I think a resourceful enterprise is a Company. A short one might be a Comp. This would suggest the aforementioned film. Is anyone going to claim a point by spelling the first word correctly?

Someone think of another word other than Forest for the first word - go on!

Orcus Posted Nov 6, 2002
Yes, because I have already answered and therefore I will just be gifting the point to someone else.
Although I've left a hint above...

Oh go on then, I shall rely on Greebo's good nature...
