Some years ago,I watched on television entitled "Cast Away" a movie by Tom Hanks. It was good it was shown again on HBO and yesterday while resting, I chanced upon it, but only the latter part of it.
I was so happy, after so many years of completely watching the whole movie, I made it. It was because I only saw the earlier portion of it and did not knew what happened at the end portion.
Now I knew what happened: he managed to sail away from the island where he stayed for four years and he was saved by a passing cargo ship. He was back home.
Had you seen that movie too?

So he bought another "Wilson" volleyball when he was rescued and returned home.

I love that movie. In middle school in our tech class we decorated the camera that we used for our live broadcast and named it Wilson haha

i didn't but it reminds me of how different movie-watching was in the past. you could enter at anytime then stay to watch it again until the part that you caught then leave or stay to finish it again.

Isn't it just the way it is now? You just show your ticket or a stamped mark on your hand to show the movie checker, so you can go out and enter the movie house again? I only watched it on TV.
