I used this piece of music in a feature documentary about my father, which I produced back when I was 51. My dad died when he was 51, and I took a road trip the year I turned 51 and talked to everybody still alive who knew him. I kept looking for the right piece of music to tie it all together, and this was it. Now it makes me think about my dad when I hear it.

They gave us everything, thanks to my father and mother I have been able to achieve what was a dream for them. My life wouldn't be better without them having existed. However, they are gone and now they are just a memory.

You are right, completely right. I named Wilson after Mike Wilson of R.L.Turner High School, a good friend and fellow boy scout. I was in the band, but he was a tennis player. I haven't seen Mike since 1972 or so. God bless him, his memory serves me still. What a fine young man. Wherever you are out there, Mike, God bless you and all those around you.

The best I ever herd

[@jasonmitchell5811]

For a long time I refused to watch this film. You see this film cam out as I was going through a divorce. A divorce I did not want. I tried to reason with my wife, But she was listening to the advice of people she hardly knew and acted upon it. So a relationship that had lasted almost 26 years came to an end, needlessly. In the aftermath, I became a recluse, only leaving my home to go to work or buy groceries. During this time I cried till I couldn't cry anymore. I had the memories of what once was and of all the people I once held dear. Eventually I came out of my self imposed isolation and now 15 years later I'm with a wonderful woman and have made new friends. But I still think of her and hope my ex is doing well. I guess that's the moral of the movie. That you can go on with life and God willing find happiness again.

Sometimes we need to let go of our emotions, trying to hold back is not always good. When I saw this movie and the scene when Wilson let go. Tom Hanks just played the part so real when he said farewell to the only friend he had, who kept him sane on the lonely island all these years. That was my time for letting out my emotions, I cried like a baby. Thank you, Tom Hanks, for been such an outstanding,, wonderful actor, I love all your movies.

Sadly she was pulled from those torrents by the hair. The shock to her system caused her to go bald in her teens,. I can't imagine what kind of pain she went through, but I know she was tormented by others for years.however she was a most beautiful human being and my Mum, I love and adore you Mum and I hope to GOD< that you can hear this music, it is dedicated to your life and for the life that you gave me. GOD I miss you, even in the tears. This music holds us together and keeps us as one. I love you Mum. xxxxxx Clive

I performed on this score as a violinist and remember it fondly as one of the few film projects of mine that was largely centered around strings. I love the massive orchestral sound too, but the intimate lines, exposed playing, and delicate texture of Alan Silvestri’s writing in this soundtrack makes it one of my favorites.

[@dandavenport7488]

Love how the plaintive oboe kicks things off and then the violins, violas and cellos fill things out. Then the wait for the swelling of the double basses being bowed to complete that full sound. They create that feeling of a natural constancy like the rolling waves. The time that is ever present and will not be denied, for better or worse in our lives. We can't turn our backs on it and expect to be unaffected.

There wasn't any diversity at the Oscars that year. Footballs and basketballs and baseballs and not one nomination. At least Wilson had the viewers behind him. Too bad about his substance abuse and eventual decline to less than 10 psi. Every once in a while someone claims to have seen him, with his once red locks now dulled and looking dirty brown. The business chews up once promising young actors and throws them in the ocean where they get lost and flounder.

My brother-in-law died of cancer a few years back. He had bouts with depression knowing death was near. Still, he planned out how he wanted his funeral. He was sure hardly anyone would come. 25 people at most. Over 100 showed. His boss closed the company for the day so all the employees could go. They all showed in company uniforms. A fellow cyclist who was also a pastor officiated at the service and graveside. I NEVER sing in public but I did for him; a capella. He wanted to travel to the cemetery by the same route he would travel to visit the farm; no interstate highway. Most of us made the hour long country road drive to the cemetary on his family's farm. All the bikers escorted him and held traffic at the intersections. As we neared his family place, people pulled over and stopped as we passed. People in fields held their work as we passed. I wish he had known. Early in life he made bad choices. Served time in jail. Not a model citizen until he found Christ. He witnessed to all his fellow workers who needed hope. They called him their work pastor. My point is not to tell you that you need Christ in your life, though you may. My point is that there are so many people whose lives you are touching in a positive way you are unaware of that need you to stay. My BIL had no choice and had to leave behind all those who held him precious. Know there are people who hold you equally precious and need and want you here. You touch more lives than you know. One last thing. I have worked in a funeral home. I have often wished the departed could see how many came to see them one last time. Their family is always amazed.

I had a partner with bipolar and her depression ruled her life. I gave her inspiration for a different life. She found to value herself. I looked after her when life's pressures hit her hard. She had a huge fear of letting her family down and they used it against her. They put the life and fear in to her to separate us. There's no coming back. I lost her. She was forced to choose because of the fears they put in her. Our final moments together she lied to my face to justify our break. The beautiful princess I cherished vanished. I put my life in to her. She crushed my soul. Life changing.

I was gonna die there, totally alone. I was gonna get sick, or get injured or something. The only choice I had, the only thing I could control was when, and how, and where it was going to happen. So... I made a rope and I went up to the summit, to hang myself. I had to test it, you know? Of course. You know me. And the weight of the log, snapped the limb of the tree, so I-I - , I couldn't even kill myself the way I wanted to. I had power over *nothing*. And that's when this feeling came over me like a warm blanket. I knew, somehow, that I had to stay alive. Somehow. I had to keep breathing. Even though there was no reason to hope. And all my logic said that I would never see this place again. So that's what I did. I stayed alive. I kept breathing. And one day my logic was proven all wrong because the tide came in, and gave me a sail. And now, here I am. I'm back. In Memphis, talking to you. I have ice in my glass... And I've lost her all over again. I'm so sad that I don't have Kelly. But I'm so grateful that she was with me on that island. And I know what I have to do now. I gotta keep breathing. Because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring?

You legend

[@danielmoses6626]

Thank you for transcribing this great monologue, a solemn moment in the movie. As I listen to the music, I am speechless at the power music and words have over the human soul. I don't believe in heaven, but if it exists, I imagine it's something like this feeling, place and space I am in right now.

[@davider6884]

First learning this entire line by heart is challenging! And then bringing emotion to it! Tom Hanks is one of the best actors the world ever saw!

The tide will come in, and the Sun will rise again. When I lost my wife Lisa, I couldn't see that possibility, and spent 4 years alone. Then I found Iolanda. She showed me love without reservation. She cared about me. I have no idea what Good Thing I did to deserve her, and I believe God won't tell me until the Final Recoining. Now, I can see that The Sun Did Rise, and the Tide did come in.

This is for those of us who admire the great composers of many great films - films that have won Oscars for their soundtracks. I ran across another name today while listening to part of the soundtrack from “Castaway” starring Tom Hanks! How soon we forget at times the film itself but hearing a portion and many scenes from the film came flooding into my memory. I had forgotten about Alan Silvestri , the composer and when looking him up he has been responsible for many films along with others like John Barry, James HornerRachel Portman etc. Back to “Castaway”, who can forget Tom Hanks character crying when “Wilson” his soccer ball floated away! My ex never did understand why Tom was crying and why I was crying - he came from a stiff upper lip family was mainly why he didn’t cry! Anyway look on KZbin ask for soundtrack from Castaway and see how it touches or doesn’t touch you! 😢

Sometimes you have to lose everything to realize the value of anything. Living a life in accordance with your deepest convictions, expressing your emotions honestly, working enough, loving enough, choosing to be happy, keeping your friends close: Nothing else lasts or matters. Birth, love, work, change, eternity are all that we face at the last.--Tom Reilly

[@juanlorenzo726]

Life... It looks like a simple word for anyone who thinks about it. However this movie expressed how much we must fight to get what we want to achieve... I am not talking about money or power... I am talking about do what we love and what fulfill our lives... And there is so much in there that for many is hard to find... This song is all about ...Never give up, do what you love most... Do your very best.

[@seeking.harmony]

I had decided to split with my ex when I heard this at the end of the movie right around that time, it made me feel very sad because I was leaving and would be alone. But here I am over decade later, doing fine on my own. But hearing this does make me feel a little melancholy about starting off on my own. 😢

[@TiredWarVet1]

This makes me think about all of the things I sacrificed to serve in the military. Nine years I gave up, and for what? Everyone I ever loved is either dead, moved on, or forgot me. Though I walk amongst society, I may as well be on an island, for my existence is transparent.

[@charleshesse2808]

I know how you feel. When I came back from Vietnam I stayed in my old room for most of my thirty days leave. Didn't want to see anyone. It is something you never get over. My dad didn't when he came back from WWII. Him, and his friends self medicated with alcohol. They all died to young. Most of them in their 50s. I eventually made a career in the military. It was all I knew. Through a lot of bad times, I had some close friends that I could talk about it with. Some are gone now, but some are still with us. We talk whenever we can. It helps. Seek out some friends, and talk to them if possible. If not, the VA has a lot of programs for vets who saw combat. They listen, and it helps. Please do not give up. You are stronger than you realize. Thank you for your service. It means a lot to so many people that you chose to serve....Don't forget that....

Listening this music touches me a thought. The loneliness of life is like that 'island. only live for yourself, without a purpose, sad, trying to figure out why ... But when you're alone you understand the value of what was around you .The value of those occasions that you threw away. And you want to return to live, managing to escape through a raging sea that tries to bring you back to shore. Only our will to live can take us over the open sea.

Possibly my favorite piece of music. If you're fan of soundtracks listen to the soundtracks that James Newton Howard has done for M. Night Shymalan's movies. Whether or not you like the movies, the soundtracks are incredible pieces of music all on their own. I really like the treatment here OP. Nice job.

I love movie soundtracks. My favorite composer is the late James Horner. I feel his music. But I agree with you about James Newton Howard. His music in The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable and Signs are some of my most loved soundtracks. I wonder if Mr. Howard is composing the M. Night Shymalan's new movie coming out January 2019, "Glass" which is a combination of recurring characters in Unbreakable and Split.

I watched castaway for the first time about a yr ago and I cried when Wilson floated away. The only other times I’ve cried for a movie was the green mile. I also cried when I played RDR2.
