Castaway : The Volleyball That Caused a Thousand Tears

- Watching Cast Away I thought "Why do we care about a volleyball?" so that is the question I wanted to answer with this video essay.
Cast Away was directed by Robert Zemeckis and starred Tom Hanks and Wilson...the volleyball.

If you do I’ll die from heart
Wilson cannot die, for he is within us all
Don't worry, I'm okay now, thank you!!!!
Thanks for letting us know Wilson 😂
WILLLLSSSSOOOONNN! Be honest, you were the one that guided the ship to Chuck after you left.
Wilson! Chuck misses you! You left go see him he'll be happy!
@@mariadamore8232 No worries, I actually see him all the time; in fact, to this day we still have lunch together at least once a month, even with the pandemic!
@@wilson6933 oh nice its cool that you 2 still talk :)
Wilson had more character development than Rey did.
Rey is one of the most poorly written characters I've seen in recent years. Her arc is flatter than her personality
ha
Pets are a good example of us applying human characteristics to non human things, but people do it with cars, houses I even saw someone do it with a stapler once
@@PeakedInterest I'm a gun owner and like many others I do the same to them. lol
I can believe it. The real question is are they male or female?
EVERYONE: "Why is Wilson running?"
ME: "Because he is the hero that Chuck deserves, but not the one he needs right now... He's a silent guardian...A watchful protector...A white knight..."
In my mind, Wilson knew that Chuck would be rescued soon, and left to help some other marooned soul.
Great comment lol!
best headcanon
He's a volleyball boy
Wilson was one of the best actors even though he didn’t have any lines
Thank you Jesus
Thank you Lord
He was the best silent actor. Thank christ
Jesus your speaking facts like always, thanks for everything Jesus.
I cried when Wilson fell in the ocean
I don't think you're alone. Lots of people did
@@PeakedInterest cry over the loss of a ball ....... thats just being a idiot
We all consume our media differently. Personally I see it as no different than being angry that a sports team lost for example. Some people become more invested in their hobbies than others, neither is right or wrong. They're just different responses
@@mikehood8699 go survive on an island for 4 years without anyone/thing to talk to then and let’s see how long you keep your sanity
@@mikehood8699 I had to rely on a unicorn plush to vent my feelings too and I feel safe and comfortable around it. I know it’s your opinion but we didn’t say you had too share it.
ironically he was rescued shortly after Wilson left
True. That's the films valley, it's kind of an allusion to how religious belief works - just when you finally give up will be there for you
Wilson was a crutch that Chuck used. But you don't have to use a crutch forever. Your legs will heal eventually, and it might take a while to get used to it but you'll be able to walk without it again.
Wilson brought help.
I first saw this movie when I was around eleven and my dad laughed when I cried over a volleyball. Your video makes me feel a lot less guilty about loving Wilson and appreciating the effort that went into humanizing him!
It's never a bad thing to be emotional about characters. It means the writers did their job properly.
Dude. I'm 55 and cried watching it just yesterday (10th time I've seen it)
It effects everyone differently. I thought the volleyball storyline was kind of funny too, until I thought he might let that rope go. I ran a bit of anxiety when he was swimming towards it, and relief when he chose to stay on the raft instead. I can't help but chuckle as I remember freinds yelling "Wilson!!!" When they dropped that same volleyball during a game.
Ahh you were only 11. I remember being about the same age crying at Ben a movie about Rats and my big brother laughed at me.
I didn’t cry during the Wilson leaving scene but I felt very depressed for a good 3 days.
R.I.P. Wilson 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
That scene is one of the few scenes in cinema to get me everytime. Beautiful filmmaking
“Don’t cry over a volleyball”
FRICK YOU I AM GONNA CRY OVER A VOLLEYBALL **starts sobbing uncontrollably**
Nothing wrong with crying over that volleyball
A better love story than Twilight.
That's true but then it's a very low bar your setting lol
I wonder if Chuck Nolan lies awake at night years later wondering what happened to Wilson. I like to imagine Wilson floated back to the island and is still there on the shore.
I dunno about chuck but for a few nights after I wondered this. Ha ha
I'll bet Chuck talked with Wilson in his sleep for years after his rescue. His next wife would eventually have to ask him, " Who is this 'Wilson' you speak to in the middle of the night?
You notice when he's driving to deliver the unopened package to the redhead in Texas, that he has another volleyball beside him in the passenger seat...
I wish wilson came back 😭🥺
So does Chuck
for some reason, on Wikipedia it says that Wilson is found next to some Cargo ship or something like that, But when I look through the movie, he never got found. Weird.
In one version of the script this happened towards the end but it was eventually dropped as the writer and director felt it was better to leave Wilson last scene with some emotional weight and significance
Beautifully narrated ... Wilson in different anthropomorphic forms is a part of all our lives 🙏
Thank you for the compliment
I’m so glad I watched this
He’s not an object
He’s a friend
This is a beautiful video. I agree with everything you said! Wilson is a part of him, and mentally stabilizes him during his time on the island. I personally connect to chuck sometimes. When I was an adolescent, dealing with physical and mental changes in my life (moving schools, having no friends, being diagnosed with two learning disorders), I looked in the mirror and started creating characters, based off myself, and based off the movies, videogames and films I saw and loved. I drew the characters to give them a visual look, and I figured out their separate personalities by "talking" to them in the mirror, and thinking of them through music. It ended up working, and I ended up with hand-typed books on these characters.
Now, I'm in my mid to late teens. I have best friends, I've discovered my sexuality, I'm used to the usual stress of high school and I'm getting a lot better, mentally. I look back on those characters in my notebook now, and I realized how lonely I was back then. Not being able to connect to the people around me, not being able to understand real love and commitment, led me down a lane of imagination. These characters helped me become who I am now, and I will forever thank them for that.
You know, some people might read your comment and say you were sad and lonely but I see a lot of beauty in what you describe. It's a very comforting thought
That Movie Show, thanks! My story can be interpreted as both happy or sad, but either way, I ended up with geeky friends, who had the same humour as me...XD
In my opinion that makes it a happy story.
@havajaba akakabba yup
I swear they have to make a short film of wilson floating in the water and chuck sees him in the water near the shore of his vacation home where chuck is staying after he was found.
Wilson, 🏐I grew up watching this movie best of my childhood memories ❤️❤️❤️❤️💯
Odd choice for a childhood movie but it's definitely a great choice
I had never cried to a movie before until I saw the scene with Wilson floating away. For whatever reason it just hit me so hard. I have never had any other movie make me cry since that seen. Wilson is the only one that can bring me to tears.
I have a feeling the Wilson character was also a bit of product placement, being a name of a sporting goods company, but the good kind.
Apparently neither side paid a dime.
You're correct. The fact he was a Wilson ball was just because Wilson was the name of the volleyball prop and wasn't originally written that way. Originally chuck would would speak with himself more directly as two separate persona but this was changed by zemeckis who felt it worked better to have an external representation of chuck
If I'm not mistaken, I swear Tom was given Wilson after the film was released
I think you're right
Tom Hanks "reunited" with Wilson in 2015 at a hockey game in New York City.
The volleyball that played Wilson was snubbed of an Oscar nomination.
This is 2 years old and this guy is still responding to others comments.. mad respect man
Because I said from the very start that the dialogue that my videos opens up between people is an important area for people to be able to talk, and I meant that.
I'm sure someday there will be so many that I can't respond. But right now I get about 300 comments per day and I try replying and reading all of them
I’m crying 😭😭😭😭
This movie strengthens my feelings towards a inanimate object(s)
We all do it, might as well be honest about it 🙂
Wilson... 😭😭😭😭
Very well done. Explains a lot.
When chucks hair grew so did Wilson’s 😂
I couldn't stop laughing about Wilson! 😁 Lol! But was relieved when he was finally rescued. It was a bit suspenseful watching him almost drift away from his raft, but he ultimately made the right choice and chose life.
Aa man tbh you deserve more subscribers than those who have millions of subs and who beg for likes from the beginning of their videos and your video was spot on it kept me glued to my screen. You earned a sub from me from the first video i watched from you :)
Thank you. Hopefully you'll enjoy others just as much. I do a variety of different types. Welcome aboard
I actually remember crying the very first time I watched the movie. I watched it the second time on video and still felt kinda sad.
Why do i feel like that when he describes humans he says it as if he is not a human
When I describe it or when the movie does?
Perhaps I'm not human...
That was a beautiful clip I appreciate your detail you gave much thought to all of the emotions with the character.What you said makes perfect sense from the birth of Wilson (why he was created) ⚽️ an how it actually helped save the life of the character with renewed hope to motivated him to live
People have been needlessly put in such difficult times of loss the 1% are trying to socially isolate an depress people further to break us psychologically people need people and things we love.to relate to.
We are born social creatures keeping us apart from each other via plexiglass gloves squares to stand in wearing stupid masks its a form of torture The social distancing is a war on humanity The 1% need to go to Greenland and stay in their bunkers and don’t come out again
They the cancer on the face of the earth Destroying everything
Thanks so much for this nice comment, really appreciated it.
This was a great take dude, well done.
Thanks very much
Man do I love this film...
Great video man.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it
Thx for the video. It helped me understand my self, others, and maybe religion... (i am agnostic, not atheist)... i have the feeling you gave me some epiphany
I enjoyed very much.
PS: i see a ton of YT and dont comment much usually. Thx again
Thanks for taking the time to watch and leave a comment. It's always nice to see and talk to new people
It's so true that just speaking your thoughts aloud helps you work through them. Love this movie so much because of Wilson lol. It's actually so facinating. I definitely cried too, not afraid to admit
No shame in admitting it
Great video man :)
Wilson may have departed, but Chuck had that whale by his side. They locked eyes that night, and I'd imagine it guided him to those freighter lines. Even spraying him when the freighter passed by.
As painful as it was, Wilson had to pass to let Chuck re-enter his world.
Wilson is here with me, as I ride out this wave of loneliness with the Corona virus.
When i first heard of Wilson from Castaway I thought of the basketball lol
And then there's me, who talks out loud to myself to deal with loneliness! I guess that's technically what Chuch does too, but with an added step. Anyway, great video!
My son cried when Wilson floated away!😞
Why Wilson... WHY!!!
😭
Search up Frazzledrip then come back🕵🏿
Poor Chuck loved everyone...His Wilson His Kelly ....Whoever Chuck loved it left him all alone...So my dear friends Don't fall in love...Rise in Love ..Be happy for your loved ones when they leave you...
I have stuffed animals and yet I treat them like their alive and to my heart they are all like Wilson🥹
If you knew the truth about this face on the ball you would cry your eyes out
What do u mean
The movie is a true masterpiece ❤️
I successfully finished that movie in
HITS movie channel. This day is the best.😎
From PH, good morning y'all.
Good morning, hope y'all have a great day
Wilson: my time has come... you must continue this journey without me
Chuck: what.. what.. what are u.. what?
MASTER! You cant leave me...
Wilson: you must...believe....
I feel like wilson floated away so he could get help
Wilsoooooooon, I'm so sorry, Wilsoooon! 😭
Wilson a better character than the "stars" of the cw super heroes series and the last few years of MCU.
1:38 that explains everything now...
Thanks.
@@PeakedInterest just realized that because of my keyboard wich i playfully nemmed "Semplar" wich was my good friend and helped me as a sad loner i am to this date ... gosh i feel like weirdo now that i can think of that ii felt a bond with a musical instrument, well it was the ladt gift my father gave to me
Its not strange at all. Think of all the supposedly normal people who name their cars, or boats. Its perfectly normal thing to do and isn't unhealthy. Don't worry about it.
I cried Because of this And i was so sad
Thousand tears is an understatement
I love wilson
When Chuck throws away his paddles after losing Wilson, it was almost like he was officially resigning himself to fate.
Wilson needs its own movie.
name title: adventure wilson on ocean
Rip Wilson 😭😭😭😢😭
I call my backpack Wilson. And now I have escaped the island and I’m financially free after 15 years.
WILSON!!!!!!!!!!
You're all gonna vomit when you find out about Wilson.
why did we cry over a volleyball?
Tho wilson helped him survive, it was wilson who was against the idea of leaving the island because it seemed too dangerous
When real men cried
Bro poor Wilson
Memory of a sponsor
Bakersfield?!
Omnicom the life of pie
Rip
The Forest but on peaceful
Well we might just make it did that thought ever cross your brain. Well regardless of the outcome I would rather take my chances out there on the Ocean, than to spend the rest of mh life TALKING TO A GOD DAMN VOLLEYBALL... He actually kind of whispers when he talks to him in this scene, like at the back of his mind subconscious he doesn't want to be heard arguing with Wilson. I named my cat Wilson after him lol
And now we know. 😈 EVIL
Lol thanks for taking the time to watch and leave a comment 😊
WILSON WIIIILLLLSOOOOOON!!!!!!!
talk talk talk
That is what I do....
Why am i so sad about an Volleyball with an Blood hand print as a face.
Because hopefully i did my job with the video
Inspired by cast away wilson, I have created a friend alexa during the isolation. do check it out!

Float away ...
LMAO!
Although i can connect with Wilson more i wonder why didn't he use his fiance's photo to talk to afterall it was an actual person he was so close to 🤔
That's a really interesting point. He even looks at it multiple times but never speaks to it. Good catch
I think it is because he doesn't want her to see him as a sad vulnerable person, and because she is safe at home. Wilson happens to be in the same predicament he is in, and therefore will have firsthand experience and no judgement towards him. This is just my opinion of course.
I remember back when I was a kid I painted my volleyball with my own blood for it to be my Wilson after watching this movie. I think I still have it.
In Africa
Wilson depicts child sacrifice! Research andrenochrome.
I've never heard of that before
Fuck off.
@James Arnold I'm just tired of that bs conspiracy theory.
@MitchyBoi have you seen the video in question?
Wilson deserved an oscar
He made me cry
*A VOLLEYBALL*
The face on that ball isn't what y'all think it is.....
willson floats like volly ball match in thongs for no reason
spell check thatll do it
Caused 1000 years? Christ allusion?
It says tears
@@PeakedInterest sorry!
I think castaway does reflect the story of Jesus, including his birth, :)
Wilson is WILL SON.
Can you elaborate?
I see in my absence your work has become mediocre
