"People have asked me, 'Hey what's that movie about?' and I say it's about a guy who builds a robot to take care of his dog after he passes on. The thing that we were always dealing with in Finch was that he had this knowledge that his days were numbered," Hanks noted. "I can't compare these things because everybody comes along on its own time. So how does it compare to previous emotional moments in his career to date, such as the classic ending from Toy Story 3? "He is going to stay alive as long as possible because he has to love that dog, take care of that dog and see to it that that dog survives."Īs Hanks points out, Finch is about the titular robotic engineer who creates a robot called Jeff (Caleb Landry Jones) to watch over his dog Goodyear when Finch no longer can as he fears he might be dying.Įven from that synopsis, you'd be forgiven for crying already. At no time in this is Finch willing to sacrifice his life because it's miserable or there's a risk he has to take. "There is also a moment in Cast Away where he's willing to sacrifice his life in order to get off that island. There is no island to get off of in Finch and there is company that is built into it, so the desire and emotional, philosophical structure of Finch is very different.
