The movie that I selected and watched was Saving Private Ryan, directed by Steven Spielberg back in the 90’s.

Its hero, played by Tom Hanks, is a thoroughly decent man with an IQ of 75, who manages between the 1950s and the 1980s to become involved in every major event in American history. And he survives them all with only honesty and kindness as his shields. And yet this is not a heartwarming story about a mentally retarded man.

majority of Cast Away, director Robert Zemeckis gives the whispers of nature precedence over a film score; though unconventional, his use of sound efficiently enhances the film. In Cast Away, a time-obsessed FedEx employee named Chuck Noland (played by Tom Hanks) is cast from civilization when his plane crashes over the Pacific. Chuck and his companion--a volleyball he calls Wilson--survive on an island for four years. Throughout the entire movie, the story unfolds with sparse accompaniment, and the theme

This is where the film, Saving Private Ryan enters the highlight of movie watchers with Tom Hanks as Captain Miller also lead character in the cast.
