I made a thread on here a while back about some of the lesser known movie scores that are super emotional, and the Cast Away end credits music is so moving. Love it!

Seeing that film as a child in the theater was a crazy experience

It's often glossed over, but the movie has no soundtrack until he leaves the island.

Then the music hits like a freight train.

I’ve always loved the way the music begins so quietly, yet utterly dramatic.

Yeah! Alan Silvestri kinda plagiarized himself—the music in Avengers: Endgame near the beginning when Tony is near death in the spaceship, is very similar to the Cast Away theme.
