I bet you didn't think you were going to get emotionally attached to a volleyball did you?
It’s a known fact that Wilson became his lover in the movie replacing his fiancé.
Tom Hanks, the man who made millions cry over a volleyball.
@@LordDagon186 which was his lover
@@israymervalentin-arias6313 🤣😂🤣
None of us did!
“ you’ve got to keep breathing. Because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide might bring.” if you’re in hard times, just remember, keep breathing. 😊🥲
The open ending with him standing at the crossroads deciding which way to go was deliberate symbolism that for the first time he had full power, and a free choice, over what he would do with his life.
I don't think it was an open ending at all. If you pay attention to the road pavement vs dirt road where he delivered the package and the way he turns to look down each road, it is clear that the end shot is of him looking down the dirt road where the lady drove and smiling.
@@DanABA Well, I think when the director said that (this is from the director's commentary track on the old DVD) he was mostly talking about the symbolism of the crossroads, not whether you can guess what his choice would be.
I agree that it wasn't an open ending. I think he goes back to that girl's house to tell her the story behind the package, which leads to a new relationship and new life.
The most underrated and misunderstood movie I've ever seen. Kelly is cheating on Chuck. There are so many subtle hints. The Xmas scene "why don't you make a honest woman out of her" look at the guys face as everyone laughs, he knew. Based on her kids age, she was already with the dentist and she got pregnant about a yr after chuck goes missing.
That's why Chuck couldn't get a appt to fix his tooth. Also the cowboy in the beginning, cheating on his wife. Then chuck at the end seems to go to her, that's why he told her that the package saved his life. He almost confronts Kelly in the kitchen with
"let me get this straight"
In the end Kelly realizes she made a mistake and lost Chuck.
@@tulacagas your timeline is messed up. The kid is in a bib and high chair being fed baby food when it is revealed.
All the other points you made are also a stretch as well. Based on Kelly's age at xmas, her elderly family members are wanting her to get married finally. The lady being cheated on has no connection to their relationship outside of the mystery woman also having no control over her own loss of her husband.
Your assumptions are a stretch at best.
"I'm sorry Willson!"😭
😭😭😭
The scene where Chuck has to let Kelly go - accepting her life - always gets me, knowing she had to let him go earlier, accepting his death. That scene reminds me of one of those vivid dreams you sometimes have about a love from long ago in which everything feels so real and perfect again, and then you wake up and spend the morning in this warm bittersweetness, feeling a dim sadness for that lost past but still grateful for that fleeting reunion.

@tulacagas that is a genuinely unique take on the plot that I have never heard put forth.
I can’t say that I agree with that assessment of the situation with the information provided in the movie, yet I understand that could be a sub-plot projected into the movie if the symmetry of infidelity is something important too see.
@@uhokthatmustbeitRest assured, it’s no subplot. It’s the entire premise of the film. This has been a well known fact of the film since shortly after its release. If you’d like to know more, and see a full list of the clues throughout the film, and the metaphors, there’s a hefty list of RUclips videos covering it.
Been there for real, more than once, with my High School sweetheart. Together, apart, together, apart, then I married someone else for 20 years, then she passed on, then I was with my old sweetheart two years later.... for two years.... and that is now 12 years ago. A hard relationship that apparently was not supposed to be.
I still have dreams like that about a woman who loved me many years ago, whom I still have love for today. Still trying to figure out how to fully let go. I think that will make the dreams stop.
I worked for FedEx for a summer unloading trucks and that speech that Tom Hanks is giving in the beginning about it not being fast enough is totally real. No matter how fast you do your job for them they want it done faster, it’s an exhausting job
I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm a beekeeper and was a federal apiary inspector for several years for the government of Canada. I've told every employee and new beekeeper I've met that slow and steady is the name of the game in the honeybee world. Do everything relaxed and calm, never rush anything.
I watched a survivalist watch this movie and he couldn't get over how realistic the fire-making scene was. He said it is the most grueling, time-consuming and exhausting process you'll ever experience.
I do basic survival camping for fun. I've built a couple fires the hard way to test myself but I would never want to rely on it for real. Just making the tools without a good knife would be a nightmare.
Matches
One must EARN the power of fire - that is why it takes such dedication and unwavering will to create it
@@toulee8051I got a lighter that creates it without much effort… jk, I get your point.
"DRIVE AFTER HER!" - Reactions like this make Addie one of a kind.
They asked the director in an interview what was in that last package, and without hesitation; he said: "A shock-proof, water-proof, solar powered satellite phone."
This movie was a master class in how a single actor can carry an entire movie if they put their all into it. Tom Hanks created believability in every scene, so much that you can easily forget that you're watching a movie and not a documentary about a real person.
The collective gasp in theaters at the "Four years later" took all the air out of the room.
Yep. I remember hearing those gasps when I saw it in the theater two and a half decades ago.
Not many actors could carry a movie like this, what with it being largely a one-man show. Tom Hanks is an International Treasure. 🤩❤
Yes but he'll always be "Buffy" to me! 🤣😂🤣
@@SC-gp7kt Oh, deep cut. Noice! 👍
"Because tomorrow, the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring." Such a simple but powerful line.
Just to make you feel better, the ending scene has Chuck looking down each road. The road he ends on, where he begins to smile, was the road going back to where that lady lives. Certainly giving the implication that he might pursue a possible relationship with her. Which is both awesome and it sucks. Because you want so badly to be witness to that interaction.
Also that crossroad at the start is the same crossroad in the end
You never know. He may have ended up with Kelly, after a few years. It would be hard to not be friends, and that might lead to something more...especially if she still had feelings for Chuck, which she clearly expressed she had.
@@jeffburnham6611 Possible, but implausible. I don't think that Chuck is ever going to live in Memphis again. He clearly is not going to be a systems analyst for package-delivery companies anymore, whether it's FedEx, UPS, DHL, Amazon, whatever. Four years in which time basically came to a halt for Chuck has freed him from being an obsessed slave of the clock -- a point made plain in the film by the fact that the first thing he does upon waking up on the beach after being washed ashore is to check his pager and his new pocketwatch. The pager is waterlogged and obviously inoperable, and the watch's mechanism is broken and thus no longer is on "Kelly time". In short, as much as he liked the people in Memphis, FedEx -- and Kelly -- are his past, and he has moved on.
And, given that she has made her choice to stay with her husband and her toddler, I can't imagine Kelly hanging on to a ghost from her past to whom she has already made her farewell. She has to move forward rather than backward, if only for her own sanity if not for the safety and security of her marriage and her motherhood.
So many parts of this movie hit me and you touched on everyone. I still can't get the scene out of mind where he's back in his hotel room and looks at all the food on the table and lights the lighter. All the things we take for granted in our life that comes in gross abundance and he had to fight to acquire the simplest pleasures every day for 4 years. I don't think I could have made it. And some fun facts about this movie it was a star-driven project. Hanks read an article about FedEx, which illuminated the fact that massive jets filled with packages were crossing the Pacific Ocean multiple times a day for the shipping company. The actor wondered what would happen if one of those planes went down, and that was the seed from which Cast Away grew. Zemeckis and company began shooting the film in January 1999, and then two months later, production took a break…for over a year. Yes, Cast Away did not shoot again until April 2000. During that time, Hanks lost weight and grew out his hair and beard in order to be able to shoot all the later scenes on the island. For the uninhabited island that Chuck washes up on the shore of, they shot on…an uninhabited island. Although, this one isn’t in the middle of nowhere. Monuriki is an island in the Fiji archipelago. It has since become a tourist attraction. As for the scenes at the ranch, those were shot at Arrington Ranch just south of Canadian, Texas. FedEx was happy to be involved in Cast Away. They provided access to their facilities in Memphis, Los Angeles, and Moscow, not to mention their planes and uniforms. The company’s real CEO even cameos to welcome Chuck back. Keep up the good work
Yep, and between this and A League of Their Own, Tom Hanks literally gave himself diabetes for his craft.
And as part of the pre-production work, the writers went to an empty beach with a survival expert. The brought a variety of items they figured would be comically unless, like ice skates, video tapes, a fancy dress and gave them to the expert. They were amazed how useful these items were to the expert, and incorporated his lessons into the movie.
(They already had the role of Wilson planned before the survival test.)
I recently went through a break up and this film just happened to be on the TV. I forgot how well this film shows that feeling of losing/letting go of someone you love and the love is still there but it just won't work and never will. This reaction honestly helped bring everything full circle.
Indeed. Good words. Have had a long "toxic" relationship on and off and lost the same person multiple times, 5 years on, 5 years apart and now off again. Watched this movie many times during the years, always a tear jerker 🥲
@@johtothis time let it stay off. You dont need that in your life. I did the same thing of off and on. One morning I woke up and said yeah enough, I'm not a damn light switch. Tons of women out there, and I happened later that month found the one that the light switch was always set to on for me, year and a half later engaged, then married. The light switch is still on and the light is still burning bright
@@davidward9737 Yeah, you are right, ive had enough already. When the trust is gone, its futile.
@@johto without trust you have nothing. Realize your worth and dont ever let someone control you with off and on. Life is short and no one needs that bs from another human, especially someone that is suppose to care. Actions speak louder than words, time to act. Wish you the best, next time the person wants it on again, say nah I found someone I love, and that is myself. I love myself more than allowing you to keep hurting me. Thanks for the memories. Bet they will be shocked
@@davidward9737 great tips, thats the right way to handle this. 👍
NEVER take off your shoes when on a plain flight - Crash Survival Tip 101
Wilson's performance was on the ball. ;)
The 18-25 test audiences didn’t understand the ending because it’s more reality and less Hollywood. Chuck completed the hero’s journey, why don’t he and Kelly get back together? Sometimes the tide doesn’t bring you back to the same place it pulled you out of.
8:15 “I imagine there really isn’t a way for them to tell where they crashed either.”
When he started the life raft inflating and the red thing got caught on something in the plane, temporarily preventing him from surfacing until it broke off, well, that was a locating beacon device that would’ve made it much simpler to find him quickly. It kind of needs to be on the surface with you to work, though.
"Castaway"the movie that gives Addie more jump scares than a horror movie. Btw you do such a great job reacting with your eyes and showing emotion with them, really no words are needed so bravo
"I love you too Kelly, more than you'll ever know". Yep. Tears everytime. I am basically a wreck after this reaction all over again thank you.
Hi Addie, I enjoy your movie reviews/reactions. I am a FedEx employee and was an extra in Cast Away. We filmed the welcome home scene at hangar 10 near the FedEx Hub here in Memphis back on May 7, 2000. It took countless takes for our work. I was in the crowd behind Tom Hanks and Chris Noth. A cast of 1500 employees. Great fun
What REALLY gets me almost every time is when he begins to leave the island and the score kicks in. It’s THAT moment that I realize there hasn’t been a score almost the entire time. Whether it was Alan Silvestri or Ron Howard or another creative behind the scenes, that was a BOLD move but it paid off beautifully. Chef’s kiss.
Everytime I see FedEx I always say; " I loved you guys in 'Cast Away'! ". 😁
Only Tom Hanks could make us cry from the death of a volleyball.
Great reaction Addie! This movie is why Tom Hanks is the Jimmy Stewart of our generation.
So well said Kevin!
I was an extra in the 'welcome home scene' when Hanks' character returns to Memphis. Zemeckis used 1500 FedEx employees to shoot that scene. We had to be onsite at the hub on Tchulahoma Avenue early that Sunday (filming was done on May 7, 2000). Filled out paperwork, etc. Then we met with Julie Bouley who was the local (Memphis) casting director. The scene we were in was done in about 40 takes. The crowd scene was a bit chaotic and had to be 'redone' several times. Basically, some of the extras were looking in at Hanks in the breakroom scene with Chris Noth. Great fun. Got to attend the premiere at the Orpheum Theatre here in Memphis.
going after her watch is what saved his life, if he was buckled in when the plane crashed he would have drowned with the pilots, not thrown to the back of the plane with the air bubble. i always loved that little bit.
The shot of him looking back at the island while rowing away has always hit me in a strange place. It's an odd goodbye to a place that he's resented but also come to depend on. It's the moment he's left something familiar in favor of the unknown, albeit it for the right reasons. That shot fills me with sadness, fear, and hope all at once.
Addie @11:49 "The water is beautiful". Actually, that's a parking lot. Great example of early CGI that still holds up well.
This is an incredible film that shows you what really matters the most in life.
What? To stay committed to your job until your dying days?
Such a smart choice to leave one package unopened. It got people speculating and theorizing what could have been in the package, just like the briefcase in Pulp Fiction.
Also, Zemeckis made What Lies Beneath, starring Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer, in the time that Hanks was losing weight. A very underrated horror/thriller, that is worth your time.
The lighter scene always gets to me. He realizes how hard it was for him to get fire and in our world, it's just pressing a button
Love this movie! Few people notice consciously that there is no music once he reaches the island, until he leaves it again.
I want to know what idiot ordered the SUSHI and CRAB LEGS for a party for a guy who's been stuck on an ISLAND for four years!
In my own head-canon ending, Chuck follows her, introduces himself... and they open the package together to find divorce papers that her husband signed four years ago, but only got delivered by Chuck. They end up married, in the middle of Texas, with no ocean, no planes, and no island - and live happily ever after. In my head, anyway.
The woman at the end, is Lari White. A fairly famous country singer from the 90's. She had hits like "Now I know", "That's my baby" and a duet with Travis Tritt called "Helping me get over you".
😁🏝🏐🪽
She sadly passed away in 2018 🥲😪
The thing that got cut off from his life raft in the water was a bag which I think was supposed to be a survival kit.
One of my favorite film facts is that they paused filming for a YEAR while Hanks lost weight and grew a beard. Zemeckis kept the crew and went off to film What Lies Beneath with Harrison Ford.
It’s a common joke that the one package he didn’t open had a satellite phone in it
I believe the reason that he never opened the last box, was so a way for him to keep hope that there was something in there that could safe him, but at the same time he knew there was nothing, so it was a way to keep his sanity.
I also loved the last 30 min. and all the questions it raised by what was those left behind suposed to do, when everyone "knew" he was dead.
”I know what I have to do now, I've got to keep breathing because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring?”
grew up watching this and love it a lot rip Wilson long live Wilson Jr. also i believe he went back to the farm lady with the wings and i like also the line he said as he was talking to his friend after seeing kelly again
"he deserves a raise after delivering this package"
I'm guessing he would actually get enough money from FedEx to be set for life.
Yet another great reaction video!! TY.
Castaway is such a good movie and undeniable PROOF of the acting chops of Hanks! I mean almost the entire movie is just him and yet he holds your interest and makes you feel for him.
That lady at the end was a famous country singer who had recently passed away sadly.
Just a beautiful movie! It only takes a man alone in an island, to know who he really is.
That whale was his angel!
Wilson was quite good in his first character part. Rumor has it that he was almost nominated for a Best Supporting Role Oscar 😮
If you look closely at that end scene you can see Chuck consider chasing the beautiful redhead but we also see in his eyes that after 4 years on an island chasing after some crazy is the last thing he can handle, lol.
One of my all time favorite movies, Tom Hanks never disappoints. Great reaction as always!
Even in his bad movies, Money Pit, Joe vs the volcano, etc he's still good in them
@@MrJholshouser41 What about Pinocchio?
@@TraceVandal haven't seen it
A good number of movies have 'little' moments that just crush me. I forget which reactor has watched which movie, so I won't mention specifics from other movies, but the moment, back home, where food is ample and fire is a matter of clicking a button just crushes the soul. It's a clear indication that what he sought and eventually achieved on the island is not what he REALLY sought, as having it in abundance is not bringing him joy. This moment, for me, clearly indicated that being home was not going to bring him what he REALLY sought, his missing relationship. All done with no words.....brilliant staging and brilliant acting.
Crabmeat, fish and coconut milk. I bet he had some serious digestive issues those 4 years. Too bad he couldn't find a thin piece of wire, something that may have washed up along the shoreline. The pager may not have worked any longer, but maybe the battery was still good. He would have had another fire starting tool.
The three items he had with him on the island where what he needed to help get him through life. The watch was his teether to the past. It was a tangible representation of his love for Kelly, and a reminder of the life he left behind. Wilson was his teether to the present. It's what got him from moment to moment on the island. A tangible representation of our connections to each other as a community and how important community is to our survival. And the package was his teether to the future. A symbol of hope, and beauty in the unknown. Something to work towards. A tangible representation of the importance of having a future to work towards. These symbols were so powerful and used to such great effect in the movie. I'm always in awe after watching Castaway. I always see something new each time.
An 'Alternate Ending' to this movie would have been that the last package has a Satellite Phone and battery in it - I would have dropped dead if I found that out after I delivered that package to the original sender and she opened it up in front of me...
I like that fedex super bowl commercial as a better ending. He asks what's in the package and she opens it and it's a satellite phone and gps locator and some other survival stuff 😂😂
My favorite joke about this movie is that there was a satellite phone in the package he didn’t open lol
I'm never not amazed at my level of attachment to a volleyball
"I don't think he said anything." LOL the softness
They should have unofficially put Wilson forward, even if just as a nod to the "character", for a Best Supporting Actor award.
It's about the power of love and how powerful hope is. ❤
i just noticed, its interesting that the watch was used by Kelly's grandfather in the south of the pacific ocean
Yay, Addie is the best. And Tennessee neighbor since Im in Missouri. There is a true story about that takes place on an island and the movie is called Papillon starring Dustin Hoffman and Steve McQueen. No reactor has tackled it yet.
You can bet he went after her. Tom Hanks said in an interview that Bettina (the redhead at the end) was always his true destiny.
The director once joked that the package he never opened had a solar powered satellite cell phone in it. 😂
Great reaction Addie, Castaway is a sad film and when it was originally released it was unfairly panned by critics and the public alike, but after 23 years, reactor’s like you have shown just how touching the film is…well done.
WILSON: Chuck, you've come a long way. I'm happy to have gotten you through those trials and tribulations. Don't cry for me. Farewell my friend.
I think at the end he was facing the direction the woman went. The tide brought her in, he went that way!
There aren't many actors that could keep you engaged, while being the only person in the movie. Tom Hanks is a great actor.
I don't think most people know how incredibly difficult it is to actually make fire in the wild. They might think that you can just rub some sticks together for a minute or two and that's that, but it's actually a lot more involved as this movie shows.
For the last 22 years Willson has been my favourite carriter, and I almost cried when Willson was lost
Memphis here, just up 78/22 from you. Thanks for the reaction! The Memphis scenes were actually shot here, including Kelly's house (I've been there for a party and didn't even realize it). Please keep flying, and don't worry: no sharks.
I know that there are uninhabited islands all over the world, and in some places (the arctic, the Antarctic) it's probable that they would not receive visitors in a four-year period, but an island in the tropics, much less so. I can understand no inhabitants on a waterless island, but no visitors at all? Seems much more improbable.
I also thought that, at the end of four years, he'd have established a more permanent home on the island, even if it was a rag-tag sort of hut, with a wide collection of beachcombed items, much of it plastic. He would have likely enough found some plastic bottles for collecting water, plastic toys of all sorts, fragments of fishing nets/net floats, perhaps boat fragments with useable metal.
😎👍 That whale opening it's eye is one of the most profound moments in cinema history. One suddenly realizes that it's the first thing Tom Hanks has looked at in over four years that actually looked back at him. 🐳 I've said it before and I'll say it again: Beginning with "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" in 1978 all the way through "Polar Express" in 2004, Robert Zemeckis never directed a bad movie, and the vast majority of them are absolutely stellar.
Yeah, unfortunately he's really dropped off in recent years, what with that alternate adaptation of "The Witches" and that dreadful live-action remake of "Pinocchio." 😕
@@ComeOnIsSuchAJoy You're just focusing on the bad. In the last 5 years he's been in 13 things. Most have been average to pretty good aside from Pinocchio. And even that doesn't have a terrible rating. I'm sure that when the kids it was targeted towards get old enough to have their voices heard online that'll change.
Open-ended to leave you thinking: "What would I do with a new life?"
Great film.
Fun fact! Wilson was played by Gary Oldman.
That man just melts into his roles so well!
Well one thing's for sure - if he goes to meet that girl, they fall for each other and settle down - he couldn't be much further away from the sea...
Shortly after the movie there was a “Wilson” antenna ball, had the hair even 👍🏻👍🏻🤘🇺🇸
If you pay close attention to the shot there at the very end, when Chuck looks down the road and smiles and the cut to black, he's looking in the direction the girl drove, the long road to canada with nothing else on it but her.
We've got to trick Addie into watching the movie Open Water somehow.
they actually had lines for "Wilson" for Tom Hanks to react to, and someone read them to him off camera.
Tom is the only one who could make me tear-up over that ball!
The part about having to breathe is so much like the monolog he has in Sleepless In Seattle about waking up every morning and breathing in and out. Both cases he had the same kind of coping response.
I mean, what movies can have you be so invested that you're nearly crying at the loss of a volleyball! It's such a brilliant story 🏐
I like the ending , she has a family. His future is undefined on open roads
Someone is extra jumpy, ready for those Halloween movies 😂
that crossroads in texas at the end, is a place i drive out to often.
Tom Hanks almost died while filming this movie. He cut his leg since he was on his knees so much, got a staph infection and wound up in the hospital for 3 days because of it. He was refusing to bathe and they caught it before it poisoned his blood. Need to look into Life of Pi as well if you get the chance. You don't like open water very much? There is a movie called, "Open Water" that you would absolutely hate and it might be perfect for October since you hate the ocean so much.
"Joe vs the Volcano" is a great, more light hearted Tom Hanks movie. Ty for another awesome reaction!!! You're the best
"Where, is the nearest exit?" -->> Right there!
I'm back in school m 50 years after I graduated high school. This week in Humanities, we're studying the way the arts can make us feel, Watching you reacting to this reminded me of that, Yes, it can make us feel, make care about characters we know aren't real. It's quite remarkable.
The whale scene is underrated imo. Whales are very intelligent, prob more so than we realize. It saw a man where he didn’t belong, and guided him to the shipping lanes for a ship to see him. Our animal friends look out for us; wish more humans would do the same for them.
I’m all shook up!
Small things the character does both on the island and after his return are things real "castaways' do. Like turning a light switch on and off, turning the flashlight on and off, and so on. They really did their homework for Cast Away
I was in art school and got to see some of the storyboards for this movie! (the summer before it released)
I remember seeing this when it came out in theaters. God I'm old lol
Mama always said, life is like a box of chocolates.
Tom Hanks is a national treasure.. .his list of movie masterpieces is so long!
A fine lesson for all of us. Even when you feel stranded and have lost hope, the sun will rise tomorrow and we need to keep breathing, because you never know what the tide will bring in. Same as Shawshank: hope. Addie for the win on this one.
This movie made us feel for a volleyball! An inanimate object. A thing that isn’t alive. That’s how damn good this movie had us in.
She's clearly heading back home. I assume that little smile is because he decides to go after her.
Headcannon: He writes a book, she comes to a signing, they hit it off.
An incredible actor. Great reaction Addie!
