During the semester we watched many movies one which was Castaway. I chose Castaway because chuck demonstrated to be a real hero. The movie castaway is about a man that gets stuck on an island for four years. He was a person that cared too much about time, everything had to be percise. chuck was a man that lived his like according to time.
Chuck was spending time with his family when he recieved a call from his job. They had asked him to deliever some packages on Christmas. His fiance took him to the airport, before he left they exchanged gifts. She gave him a watch with a picture of herself in it. Chuck gave her a towel and something esle for her bathroom.
During the take off everything was fine, it wasn't till five minutes later that the plane broke down. They were above the ocean, so there was a posibility that one would survive. Chuck woke up on the island not knowing waht to do. He was trapped on the worst island ever. No one ever got near it because of the currents that could leave them standed on the island. The first couple months he was on the island, he didn't know how to do anything. He had trouble fishing, making a shelter, and breaking cocanuts to drink the juice. He got hurt many times trying to escape the island. He finally realized that he wasn't going anywhere. Chuck was hoping someone would find him and save him from his horrible experience.
As time pasted he got used to it. He learned to catch his food and find his right drinks. Chuck was tired of being lonely and not be able to talk to someone. He found packages from the plane and opened them. There was a ball that he kept and named Wilson. Chuck treated it like a human. He talked to it and painted a face on him. Desiring a hot meal, he repeatedly tried amking a fire.
Four yeas later he has built a strong raft, of course he has to take Wilson with him, being his only companion. Chuck makes it out and has hope to be found right away. As he lays there thinking of lost Wilson a ship spots him and saves Chuck. The excitment of seeing his fiance Chuck learnd that she is married. They talk knowing they can't be together right there and then.
Chuck was a hero for many reasons, he learned to value time. Not caring if it goes scheduled or planned out. He sees life a day to day adventure.
