The plane crash sequence in Cast Away has to be the best plane crash sequence ever put to film.


What it comes down to is when Hanks is washing his face in the bathroom, and bam he’s immediately hanging off the bathroom door. The flight attendant smacking his head while trying to help Hanks. Bleeding out on the cabin floor while he struggles to stop the bleeding. Then the quick shots of the on coming ocean viewed through the wind shield. Followed by the close ups of Hanks terrified face.It all happens so fast, things quickly become detritus yet it all ends just as quickly as it started. By far the most gripping sequence in the film, and of any planet crashing sequence that I know. Very much like the sinking of the U boat in Dunkirk. What made it scary was you saw everyone inside and bam they get hit and 30 seconds later they’re all gone! via /r/movies https://ift.tt/p5QEAxG
