My paper is about Chuck Noland and his experience in the film Castaway. His plane crashed into the ocean, and he was stuck on a deserted island. He had to adapt to his surroundings in a different environment and live on his own. Chuck Noland completed a heroes journey because he did something a lot of people couldn't and probably never will be able to do. He survived all odds on a deserted island for four years when everyone he loved and who loved him thought he was dead.

Chuck was called into work to deliver a shipment for feel-ex. He had to leave his family, friends, and his home. He struggled to leave his girlfriend, when exiting the vehicle while she was dropping him off at the airport. His journey begins when he gets on the plane to leave. chuck also makes a decision on whether he should stay on the island or go and find help, because it was his home for four long years.

Chucks' journey begins in the unknown when he lands on a deserted island. He doesn't know where he is and he is very unfamiliar with the environment. An unopened package is what keeps him going for the entire four years on the island. His mentor and only friend was Wilson. Wilson was a volleyball who had a bloody hand print for a face. Wilson stuck by Chucks side the entire time chuck was on the island. While on the island Chuck learns to provide for himself in nature and be on his own. He did an excellent job taking care of himself, finding food and water, and making himself shelter.

Chuck built himself a homemade ship so that he could sail over many big waves in the ocean. He was found by a ship in the middle of the ocean while trying to sail away from the island. While trying to get away from the island he also loses his dear friend Wilson. After they help him get cleaned up, they put him on a plane home. He went and found his long lost girlfriend Kelly Fears. After he learned to cook and provide for himself in nature, he was able to better himself in his household.

I talked about Chuck Noland and his experience in the movie Castaway because he was a true hero. He was brave, confident, and kept himself motivated. He lived through rough times for four years, and was able to overcome all his fears. Chuck learned and proved to everyone he could provide and fend for himself in basically any situation.
