Liliana Tavares Final Exam

Literature and film does show us important social and moral problems. Most of them have some sort of message weather its good or bad. Even some cartoons and t.v sitcoms have some sort of message for the audience.
For example, the movie we watched this semester "Castaway." In the beginning of the movie Chuck was always worried about time and his job. He worked for Fed Ex and was always rushing everywhere, even two minutes meant everything to him. His job was the reason why he had to leave and which is why he was on that flight that crashed.
After the crash he was stranded on the island and went through a lot of struggle everyday in order to survive. He had to find shelter and find ways to get food. He was stranded for four very long years, well for him i can imagine.
When he finally got off the island and went back home he saw life at a new light. He appreciated life a lot more then he did before. He didnt worry so much about time anymore. He just went where the wind would blow pretty much.
I believe this movie did have a very good moral. The struggle Chuck went through and how he changed from the beginning of the movie to the end gives an important message. To me it pretty much says not to take things so seriously. To stop, take a deep breath and allow yourself to enjoy life. Because unexpected things can happen suddenly. You never know when your life will end so dont take it for granted.
