He functions at warp speed, devoted to a career that matches his compulsive personality. Every moment of every day has been scheduled to achieve maximum success through maximum control. While Chuck can "fix" anything at work, his personal life is another matter. Chuck�s job responsibilities leave little time for his longtime girlfriend Kelly, played in a featured role by Academy Award winner Helen Hunt. Chuck�s manic existence abruptly ends when he becomes isolated on a remote island - cast away into the most desolate environment imaginable. Stripped of the conveniences of everyday life, and without any human contact, Chuck is slowly transformed, both physically and emotionally, as he attempts to survive. Without the distractions and pressures of the modern day world, Chuck�s perspective on success, and on life itself, are profoundly altered. |
