One of Tom Hank's best performances comes from his role as Chuck Noland, an obsessive FedEx worker who finds himself stranded on a deserted island after a terrible plane crash. It takes a truely great actor to get viewers emotionally involved in a movie when they are the only actor on screen for a vast majority of the movie, and Tom Hanks succeeds spectacurly in his performance. While she is not given much screen time, Helen Hunt is also great as Chuck's girlfriend Kelly, and her involvement really increases the emotional tension in the story as Chuck struggles with life on the island and his desperation to return home.
