Review: Life's Cast Aways - The theme of people and their possessions and relationships being cast away through life is woven throughout this amazing tale. Tom Hanks transforms before your eyes as he first cast away his girl friend for another seemingly urgent business trip. A career that cast away, or he thinks he must cast away his personal life, or forever put it on hold for another delivery. The fate of life rips him from the seemingly urgency of everyday life and it's false priorities, and casts him away to a life where he must cast away first his worthless pager, then the things that are now worthless in his isolated deserted island life. The seemingly worthless items that wash a shore with him prove to be of great value, like ice skates and the volleyball. As he cast away his preconceived notions of what things are important in life, he so struggles to hang onto the hope of reconnecting with his girl friend. Days of early survival melt into over four years as he finds his only priority in life is to just be able to breath each day, one day at a time. Time is recorded as marks on a wall, not by the precision of watches, clocks and calendars. The physical and emotional transformation of Tom Hanks is beyond remarkable, it is stunning. Yet the best is saved for last. His reunion with his old friends as he steps back into his previous life confronts him with a personal reassessment of what in life is important, not urgent, nor just wasting your life on this earth. He first finds that his old girl friend has in one way cast him away to marry someone else, yet she has followed him as he was lost at sea and his eventual rescue in every detail. Her heart was in some way never letting go of the hope that he might live, yet her head cast away the relationship to allow her to continue on with her life, marry and have children. She almost wants to cast away her husband, children and her comfortable life to return to the love of her life, yet he knows in his heart that he must at last cast away his heart felt hope of someday returning and marrying her. His hope was his life line, yet his hope now must be cast away to free himself to live the rest of his life. He follows his heart in the closing scene to find himself faced with a decision that many of us never allow ourselves to face, that of in which new direction do I live my life. As he stares at the four roads that each lead to four or more irreversible paths with his life, we are left wondering as he is, what life changing choice to make, and which others to cast away. Knowing that the choice of one, casts aside all others. Helen Hunt again proves herself as one of our great dramatic actresses. From her look of heartfelt disappoint as he leaves for another urgent trip, to her uncomfortable feelings as she again reconnects with her lost love. Tom Hanks rises above and beyond acting as he becomes the man who must chose to live or to die with each of life's choices. He faces the pain of isolation by sharing himself with Wilson his imaginary friend. Technically the movie on DVD is spectacular, with the special effects adding the visual impact that the writers envisioned in their imagination. You do not leave the movie when it ends, you yourself begin to examine each time consuming part of your life. Things, jobs and relationships and wonder what should I keep and what should I cast away.
