While the details change, the story's core remains the same: an individual fights for survival in solitude. What is the appeal of Daniel Defoe's novel with its in-depth description of survival techniques, agriculture and livestock breeding on a tropical island while the castaway protagonist seeks for 28 long years to live a life agreeable to God?
Why hasn't the novel fallen into oblivion, and why do people still today recognize the title — even if they haven't read "Robinson Crusoe" — and roughly know what it is about? Meanwhile, some writers have noted that the story, set during the time of slavery, is founded on racist stereotypes whereby cohort Friday, a man of color, subordinates himself to Crusoe and voluntarily becomes his servant. The issue of race relations in the story was partly addressed in the film "Man Friday" starring Richard Roundtree and Peter O'Toole.

It's something to bear in mind as we peruse a sampling of the adaptations—which we'll see are a quite varied lot. The picture, filmed in Mexico, opens with Crusoe's voice-over about being on a trip to get slaves as we see him being washed ashore.
It closes with him and Friday preparing to leave the island after rescue. In-between, the survival story is reduced to its basic elements. His name is Friday because Robinson Crouse saves him at the day of Friday and he takes him as his servant. They live together for three years. Robinson Crusoe educates him and teaches him English and some information about religion.
Friday gives information to Robinson about cannibals. Friday informs Crusoe that the cannibals saved the men from the shipwreck which Crusoe witnessed earlier, and that those men, Spaniards, are living nearby.
Friday wants to return his people and Crusoe is upset at the prospect of losing Friday. Then they decide to make contact with Spaniards in order to leave from island. Before they leave the island they come across with cannibals and cannibals are holding three slaves.
