Cast Away

Physical journey is someone or something moves from one place to another. The film, Cast Away, directed by Robert Zemeckis, shows concepts of physical journey by using the character Chuck Noland who trapped in an isolated and uninhabited island as a result of a plane crash.

A point of view shot of Chuck Noland was used when he was looking outside through the window and this shot put audience in the plane so that they know the fear produced by the power of nature. When Chuck Noland survived from the crash, many waves fell on him and put him in danger. Zemeckis again used a point of view shot to show the power of nature and used zoom out to an extreme long shot from high level angle shot and
