Tom Hanks admits he finds it difficult to watch Cast Away
He recalls one of his most famous works, “Cast Away,” in which the plane he was on, with a lot of FedEx packages, crashed on a barren island. From making friends with a ball to rescue, the movie was a great experience for him.However, his reunion scene with Kelly Frears, played by the one and only Helen Hunt, is one he never wants to watch again.
As for why, he offered more details and shared, “Chuck comes back to Kelly’s house, gives her back her watch, and there’s a moment where I think I’m not there. It’s all a transformation for me. I do this gesture that I think is false, and it’s me and it’s not Chuck. If the movie came out, I would get up and leave the room before this scene came out.”
“Hanks also added that he did not realize he had made a mistake until after the film was finished and he was watching the finished product.
