Wasn't someone going to do a 2-part special about Cast Away?
I really should do this. I loved the film when I saw it in Japan and my girlfriend at the time and I often made little jokes shouting "Wilson" whenever we wanted to be silly. I'll just say that I watched the film on the 6th floor of a building in Osaka in late 2000 or early 2001 and there was an earthquake during the film. The whole theater swayed back and forth, which was really scary in the dark. But noone got up to leave. It was very eerie, not knowing what to do. If anyone ever comments, perhaps I'll say more about this. But I did watch the movie again the other day on Blu-Ray and it really made me long for a partner in life. Time had distorted my memory of the ending however. I had thought that Tom Hanks fell in love with someone new at the end, but really it was only just given a very slight suggestion. I had made the connection in my mind because it made the film less sad. Great story though... What did you think?
