A few nights ago, when I came back from work, after dinner, Mr. Wang said that he wanted to find a movie to see, and given that I had watched more excellent films than him, I did not hesitate to recommend "The Rest of my life on a desert island" starring Tom Hanks.
The beginning of the film is empty, but it is very attractive, and curiosity makes it unconsciously immersed in the film when watching. Often good movies have a good start, such as another of Hanks's masterpieces, Forrest Gump, which uses the unique perspective of The Forrest Gump narrator to tell the story, which is fascinating.
[Tom Hanks]
Tom Hanks plays Chuck, a systems engineer at FedEx, who often follows cargo plane flights around, pays attention to time management, and even makes timers for freight.
Chuck was too busy with the public to take care of his girlfriend, Kelly, and even exchanged Christmas gifts in the car. What did he give to his girlfriend? Notebooks, towels, and matryoshka dolls bought in Russia, I have to say men, huh ~ didn't you see that people Kelly wanted a ring?!
Girlfriend Kelly gave her an antique pocket watch left to her by her grandfather, and inside was a picture of her girlfriend Kelly. He was very touched, cherished, and even ventured to pick up a fallen pocket watch when the plane was about to crash into the sea.
After the plane crash, Chuck was swept to a small island by the waves, woke up to check the island, saw the package washed on the island by the wave, and out of professional instinct, picked it up and put it away.
Climbing up the cliff to check the terrain, seeing a person still floating in the sea, rushing down to find the person, found that it was one of the captains, turned over and did not expect that his face had been soaked to white
Chuck dragged the body ashore and took off the captain's shoes, it was painful to live on the island without shoes, and Chuck walked in the sea while surveying the island, and his feet were all ground in the rocks and blood
Unexpectedly, the shoes are small, in this case, what to do? Please look at the picture below, see here, the original heavy heart, suddenly broken, laugh out loud
After burying the captain, he got up one night to pee on the sea, suddenly saw that there was a light on the sea in the distance, and busily picked up the flashlight he had found from the captain, and sent a light signal for help, which was useless at that time.
The next day, Chuck rowed a tattered kayak to go out to sea, but was mercilessly slapped on the beach by the waves and injured
Chuck, who had returned from defeat, saw the parcel on the ground, and the current survival was the most important, so the exciting unpacking link came, and it was really a surprise, there were tapes, divorce agreements, birthday gifts (a volleyball), skates, a lady's skirt, the last package, he was not willing to open, left. This is also a suspense left by the film to the audience. Even at the end of the film, the audience is not told what is inside the package.
I often watch wild survival documentaries, Beiye, and Deye often say that there are three elements of wilderness survival - water, shelter, and fire.
The island is not bad food, thirsty there are coconuts, rain, hungry there are fish, crabs. But when Chuck wanted to eat the crab to catch it, he found that the meat inside the crab's leg was a fluid liquid, so making a fire became the most important thing at the moment.
But for those who are accustomed to the easy access to fire in civilized societies, it is very difficult to make a fire on a deserted island.
The drill wood fire was rubbed from day to night, and then from night to day, the hands were blistered and there was still no Mars. Unexpectedly, the use of stones to pry coconut meat gave Chuck inspiration
So I changed my way again, but I didn't expect that this time not only did not succeed, but also hurt my hand
The moment of sadness, helplessness, anger, rushed up at once, and the angry Chuck kicked over the tools of life, picked up the volleyball on the ground and threw it out
After calming down, Chuck looked at the volleyball that had been thrown out, with a bright red bloody handprint on it, and he carefully picked it up and dipped it in the shape of a human face
He called this partner Wilson, who also gave Chuck strength and courage, but he did not expect that the fire was actually successful. Chuck shouted in delight, and I felt his excitement across the screen.
It has always been believed that whether an actor is successful or not, whether he can be called an "actor", only needs to look at his work, the work is the only measure.
With the fire, the days were much better, the roasted crab replenished with protein, and Chuck was finally able to calm down and roughly calculate where he was now, and it would take a 500,000 square mile search to find him.
At that moment, I believe that his heart was cold, and after experiencing the last failed trip to the sea, Chuck would not easily try to kill himself dangerously.
Time was like that, not hurried, but it was a torment for Chuck, especially while he was still suffering from toothache.
One night, Chuck, who lived in a cave, was in so much pain that he couldn't bear it, and finally he personally pried off the bad tooth with a knife on his skates.
As the saying goes, "Toothache is not a disease, it hurts really badly". The clip where Chuck prys his teeth really hurts across the screen. Good actor, first-class acting, nothing to say.
Time passed like this, and 4 years passed, and the stone recorded the passage of time, and Wilson grew his hair, tattered. The camera switches to a skinny, bearded man, and if the camera doesn't switch to the man's face, it really doesn't recognize Chuck. Some people believe it when it is said that the savages are all.
One day the waves sent a tattered shell, and Chuck was greatly encouraged, which drifted from civilized society.
Bored nai sat on the beach looking at the washing machine shell, when suddenly a gust of wind blew the shell to the ground. Chuck suddenly had an inspiration, yes, that's right! sail!
So Chuck began to make rafts for the sea, he cut coconut trees, collected wood, made ropes, cut down all the trees on the island that could be used as ropes, calculated the day when the tide came, and prepared for the sea.
If it weren't for talking to Wilson, a person alone on the island would have driven him crazy. One day, when Chuck was talking to Wilson while preparing the final rope, he unconsciously became emotional, grabbed Wilson and threw it out, but when he threw it out he regretted it.
In the dark night, Wilson was thrown out of the cave and could not see where he fell, Chuck was devastated and regretted, Wilson was his spiritual companion, a pillar.
Fortunately, when he was about to collapse, he turned his head to see Wilson lying on the rock, and Chuck regretted that he would never throw away Wilson again.
The acting skills here are really wonderful, and this mood, the performance is vivid, and Hanks applauds.
Finally on this day, the wind direction also changed, the raft was completed, Chuck wrote his last traces on the stone when he left, did not expect that Chuck had been on the island for 1500 days, that is, 4 years and more than a month. It's incredible to think about, admirable.
Chuck took the finished raft, of course, he would not forget to take Wilson, a friend, and the package that he had never been willing to open in the end, and picked up the pocket watch on the ground that had been accompanied by his girlfriend. Inside the girlfriend's photo has turned yellow.
The years passed. Out to sea, Chuck cheered himself up as he spoke to Wilson, "Wilson, I'm in charge of rowing, you just have to sit still!" ”
After all the hardships, Chuck and Wilson finally crossed the waves with the help of the monsoon, and they succeeded! No more being stranded on the island!
Chuck shouted excitedly and said to Wilson that we had succeeded
When looking at the island that had been there for more than four years, Chuck's face was relieved, and the soothing and tragic music remembered, Chuck finally left there on his own
At sea, Chuck rowed day and night, thirsty for rain, hungry to go to the sea to fish, and at night to see whales out of the sea to breathe, and the creatures of nature looked at each other. It also seems to encourage his bravery.
One night, there was a big wind and waves at sea, and the washing machine sails were taken away.
The next day, the sea was calm, but Wilson was asleep when Chuck was asleep when the straps fell off and were carried away by the waves
Chuck tries to retrieve it, but the undercurrent of the sea rushes to chase Wilson, which may mean losing the raft, which means losing hope of survival.
Chuck, who lost Wilson, cried bitterly, and can imagine a friend who had accompanied him for more than four years left, and was the only friend, lonely and painful only told Wilson, this friendship is irreplaceable.
Finally, a freighter passed by, and Chuck was finally rescued! finally!
Chuck, who returned to civilized society, contacted his girlfriend at the time for the first time, and Kelly, who heard the news, suddenly fainted!
At this time, Kelly was married and had a child, and her husband was the dentist who helped Chuck mend his teeth 5 years ago. The husband prevented Kelly from meeting Chuck. Looking at his former girlfriend outside, Chuck was in a heavy mood. He survived the belief, which also included Kelly.
Everyone was celebrating and cheering for the rest of Chuck's life, and Chuck looked at the fire that was easily obtained in the lighter, and he felt a lot of emotion.
In the end, Chuck still drove to meet his girlfriend Kelly, in short, still have to meet, so many years, even if they can't be together now, but some things can only be released after meeting.
Years later, the two sides met and hugged each other tightly. Kelly also remembered Chuck's favorite half-skim milk, and everything still looked so natural.
Chuck, on the other hand, returned his pocket watch to Kelly, but kept the faded photo of Kelly. Perhaps, this also confirms that the 2 people can no longer be together.
Kelly took out the map that Chuck had drawn at the time, and in order to find him, Kelly put everything down, and Chuck regretted at this time that he should not have gotten on the plane at all, should not have gotten off at all, but the most unlikely thing in the world was "should have been"
The two looked at their own car, remembering the beauty in the car, the place where they went together, the picture suddenly became harmonious, and both of them laughed. Laughing and laughing and crying, the two gave Kuobi a deep hug kiss for many years.
Chuck drove away from the car that had their shared memories, and looking at Chuck who had disappeared into the rain, Kelly had mixed feelings, and the feeling of losing and regaining, and fearing to lose again, was really sad. Kelly couldn't hold back any longer, called Chuck's name, rushed into the rain, and chased him out
Chuck was also at this moment, driving back, and the two hugged each other tightly in the rain
Seeing this, the barrage is full of words about Kelly's current husband, who is green, and I really want to talk about those who have no brains.
Two people who are still deeply in love with each other, can't be together, how painful it is.
I wish Kelly's current husband could break up and give Kelly and Chuck happiness. But no one is a party to the matter and cannot make a choice for them.
At the end of the movie, he goes to deliver the package that he has been keeping, and the picture goes to the beginning of the movie, and no one knows what is inside the package, as Chuck said, "I gotta keep breathing, becasue tomorrow, the sun will rise, who knows what the tides could bring?"
I like this movie very much, not only because of the plot, the acting, but also because it is a good drama that brings strength, warmth and strength.
It is said that in order to play this role well, Hanks first gained weight and then lost weight, and then created such a successful role, which made people applaud, which is the responsibility that a good actor should have!
