We studied Cast Away in my psycology class last term. It was actually a really good movie to study for that class, so many good examples of stuff.
Good movie. |
Boy, iSm and I have such differing tastes in movies. I don't have the energy to get into it tonight but I really, really hated 'Cast Away'. Now, I know iSm is going to give me a lashing for it, but the truth must be told.

GC, you'll get no lashing from me ... (well, not for your poor movie taste anyway) :D
A lot of people have trouble with Cast Away. It's too slow for some. It comes off crass and cumbersome to others. It's got a weird structure and an unusual tone that many people don't take to. I am at a personal loss to see where anyone could not find at least the surface story compelling - - the classic tale of man on desert island told more truly and stylishly than any previous attempt. Yet many people don't even find it a good adventure film, much less chock full of psychological, spiritual and emotional resonance. The film is sublime. I feel nothing but sadness for those who just don't get it. |

We interrupt this serious debate about the merits of a serious film to bring you mindless woo-hooing about what is surely a stupid movie with an even stupider name.

So, before I decided what I was going to watch tonight, I turned on the TV while I was eating dinner. I'm watching Big.
It's a Tom Hanks kind-of week. However, my fav is Philadelphia. |
