movie plot

As a system engineer of FedEx, Chuck pays attention to accuracy in his personal life and work.

Efficiency, his personality is impatient, so he stresses speed in everything and has an absolute desire to control, so his daily life and work and rest are under his control anytime and anywhere. Although my career is successful, my feelings are another matter. Because he is a super workaholic, he seldom has time to spend with his girlfriend Kelly, so their relationship is in crisis. On a business trip, Chuck's small plane crashed and he was trapped on an uninhabited island with poor resources. When he lost the convenience of modern life and the communication between people, the only purpose of life was to survive, but his outlook on life gradually changed. When he found that the pressure of life suddenly disappeared, he began to reflect on the purpose of life, and finally had a new experience and understanding of work, feelings and even life itself.

Life on a Desert Island is a movie with infinite association and inspiration. The protagonist is the business director of FedEx, who flies around all day. He was lucky to be the only one in the unfortunate air crash.

Unfortunately, he drifted to an isolated desert island with only a pocket watch with a photo of his fiancee, a volleyball, a FedEx and a kayak. He once wanted to leave the desert island by kayaking, but the kayaking failed because of the big waves at sea, and then he knew that he would spend the rest of his life on the desert island. He also wants to die. He once climbed a cliff and tried to hang himself with a rope, but God gave him another life and he failed to hang himself as planned. So he wants to breathe and live in this world, even on this desert island. Four years later, he has become an excellent fisherman, the photo of his fiancee on his pocket watch has become his hope for survival, volleyball has become his only friend Wilson, and FedEx has become his responsibility for survival. For four years, out of curiosity, he never opened the courier. The film director said humorously in an interview that the courier contained waterproof solar satellite phones. But only four years later, a floating steel plate made him want to leave the desert island again. He made rafts out of bark and trees and sails out of steel plates.

Still photos of the rest of his life on a desert island (23 photos) He succeeded this time. He managed to escape the waves. After several days' sea voyage, his sail disappeared and his friend Wilson drifted away. He is desperate again. At this time, a cargo ship found him and rescued him. Four weeks later, he appeared on the plane to Memphis. He was very disappointed when he learned that his fiancee was married. So the last thing he can do is to deliver the FedEx to Mei, who should have got it four years ago, but Mei was not at home, so he had to leave a note. At the crossroads, he couldn't find his way back to Memphis. Just then, a beautiful girl showed him the way. When he was about to leave, he realized that the girl just now might be May. At this time, the most inspiring scene of the film appeared. He stood in the middle of the intersection, confused.

I've seen the rest of my life on a desert island before. When I first saw it, I thought it was just a commercial movie in Hollywood. The first impression that gives people is the modern version of Robinson Crusoe, which is just packaged with big-name movie stars. If the film ends with Tom Cruise's return to the civilized world, then my first impression will be established. But this is not the case. The film not only has no ending, but also spends a lot of time describing Tom Hanks's experience of returning to the civilized world. It also fully describes the changes in the post-desert island period. The marriage of a lover and the change of the whole world are layers of blows to the protagonist.

If I were to comment on the film at that time, I would only say that it was a very deep film, and I can't say how deep it was. What I can say now is that it seems to be talking about the existing problems.

The protagonist's busy and time-pressed attitude at first is very distinct in the whole film. He seems to be the master of the whole movie. He has power. His presence is very vivid in the film. In other words, he has great influence in the civilized world. However, the first turning point of the film is that when Tom Cruise suffered an air crash and was stranded on a desert island, the material existence of his civilized society had already disappeared. On this island, he and his friend Wirseen, who originated from his thoughts, are the only ones in his time and space. He left a civilized society with ever-changing information and lived on an island where only he and his derivatives existed, and his development was almost zero. This is why when he returned to the civilized world, he found that things were different. Because in his world, time and space experienced a huge fault. This problem made him almost unable to accept the civilized world. This led to his reticence. In Foucault's view, he experienced two fractures, and both of them came suddenly. And his return is the second turning point of the film. His inadaptability to life, even his helplessness and regret for all kinds of changes, made him have the idea of returning to the island. And the film has a very delicate description of his mood. In addition, people in civilized society think that he is not a strongman in the past, but a survivor of an air crash. The last scene of the movie may be the same as writing an article, with a similar connection from beginning to end, as if talking about some similarities and differences between time and space.

Of course, the film also brings out a question, that is, does a person exist? Of course, the film tells us that people can't exist alone, and even people on uninhabited islands can derive Wirseen. If people can't reflect through others, they won't feel their existence. When there is no one else, the only thing a person can do seems to be to split his personality into multiple parts. Let yourself find yourself in your own thoughts. I'm just talking about this movie from the perspective of existence. A movie can't just express one thing. There are also time, feelings, interpersonal relationships and so on.
